The Thirty Years War continues to ravage 17th century Europe, but a new force is gathering power and influence: the Confederated Principalities of Europe, an alliance between Gustavus Adolphus, King of Sweden, and the West Virginians from the 20th century led by Mike Stearns who were hurled centuries into the past by a mysterious cosmic accident. The CPE has the know-how of 20th century technology, but needs iron and steel to make the machines. The iron mines of the upper Palatinate were rendered inoperable by wartime damage, and American know-how is needed on the spot to pump them out and get the metal flowing again-a mission that will prove more complicated than anyone expects. In the maelstrom that is Europe, even a 20th century copy of the Encyclopedia Britannica can precipitate a crisis, when readers learn of the 1640 Portuguese revolt, a crisis that will involve Naples as well. Another factor: Albanian exiles in Naples, inspired by the Americans, are plotting to recover lost Albanian turf, which will precipitate yet another crisis in the Balkans. This troubled century was full of revolutions and plans for more revolutions before the Americans arrived, and gave every would-be revolutionary an example of a revolution that succeeded. Europe is a pot coming to a boil, and Mike Stearns will have his hands full seeing that it doesn't boil over on to Grantville and the CPE.… (plus d'informations)

The world created by the 1632 book keeps expanding in time and space. With the ambition this project has I think it was inevitable, but maybe it also becomes less entertaining.

A firm interest in European history is a good base though nobody will be prepared for everything in this universe.

This book is a lot about the collision of catholicism and protestantism, illustrated by the conflicts surrounding Bavaria, though happening all the way between Amsterdam and Vienna, with a sprinkle of Basel.

It's interesting but the time line moves very slowly. ( )

I was not as much of a fan of this one. There are some interesting aspects - moving further into Eastern Europe and away from the areas where I know the history fairly well is fascinating in its own way - but none of the major characters really grabbed me and the plot felt a little railroaded. ( )

Ok...this is a REALLY complicated book with way to many characters to follow. Although once it settles into the primary storyline it is enjoyable. ( )

The technical development in this series is fascinating. They come from our time, but have to work with the materials and manufacturing available in the early 1600s, the few resources they took with them and most importantly the skills and information they have. If you've ever asked yourself, "How would I survive if...?", then this is the series for you. It's also a key series for history buffs, re-enacters and people who simply love a good story.
