Comins, Neil F. What If the Earth had Two Moons? And Nine Other Thought-Provoking Speculations on the Solar System
Summary: Ten essays on different Earths and solar system, four of which might be considered allohistorical. These are "What If the Earth Had Two Moons? Dimaan, Lluna, and Kuu", "What If the Earth Were a Moon? Mynoa and Tyran", "What If the Moon Orbited Backwards? Anillo", and "What If the Earth's Crust Were Thicker? Dichron". Each begins with a short fictional narrative which in some cases furthers this comclusion.

What if: Earth's orbit had an obliquity of (near) 90°.
Summary: Life would have had to evolve in the tropics, and when species moved on to land, mass migrations over vast distances would be necessary to avoid death in the alternately baking/freezing mid-latitudes.

Summary: Life would evolve more quickly, but face more difficulty making the transition to land.
