MacArthur's War: A Novel of the Invasion of Japan, Douglas Niles and Michael Dobson. My middle name, Powell, is from a relative on my father's side of the family - Rear Admiral Paulus P. Powell. Uncle P's was on Nimitz's staff during the war and helped plan the thankfully-never-executed, Operation Downfall. The book was a well-written and entertaining bit of alt. history.
