Last night I finished reading the first of Harry Turtledove's Crosstime Traffic novels, Gunpowder Empire. The writing is somewhat simplistic, but he does a very good job of comparing a civilization in which the Roman Empire never fell, to our present one, and he presents his reasons why it ends up that way very well. It was a quick, entertaining read.
