ย NEW YORK TIMESย BEST-SELLING SERIES. The eigth anthology of tales set in Eric Flintโs phenomenal Ring of Fire universeโall selected and edited by Flint.
The most popular alternate history series of all continues. When an inexplicable cosmic disturbance hurls your town from twentieth century West Virginia back to seventeenth century Europeโand into the middle of the Thirty Years Warโyou'd better be adaptable to survive. And the natives of that time period, faced with American technology and politics, need to be equally adaptable. Hereโs a generous helping of more stories of Grantville, the American town lost in time, and its impact on the people and societies of a tumultuous age.
Edited by Eric Flint and Walt Boyes, the editor of theย Grantville Gazetteย magazine from which the best selections are made, these are stories that fill in the pieces of the Ring of Fire series begun with Flintโs novelย 1632.ย The setting has become a political, economic, social and cultural puzzle as supporting characters we meet in the novels get their own lives, loves and life-changing stories. The future and democracy have arrived with a bangโan historical explosion with a multitude of unforeseen consequences.
At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management).
