Eric Flint's 1632 & Beyond Issue #4
(2024)(A book in the 1632 & Beyond series)
An anthology of stories edited by Jack Carroll, Iver P Cooper, Bjorn Hasseler and Edith Wild
1632verse:
“Fire on the Mountain" by Bjorn Hasseler came from a 2023 gathering in Mannington, WV, the model for Grantville. A real case combined with discussions about 1632 refugee housing led to this story.
"A Knight's Tale—Therapies" by Edith Wild is the third story about Amalia and Maggie, first met in "A Christmas Stollen" (A 1632 Christmas) and again in "Leftovers," in Grantville Gazette 100. Odd things have been occurring.
"Another Country Heard From" by Jack Carroll fills in some gaps. In 1637: The Coast of Chaos, a certain Dutch radio was very important. Jack asked how the Dutch got to that point, and this story is his answer.
Assiti Shards: Iver P. Cooper brings us an Alexander Inheritance story: "Birds of the Muses" in which Melissa, a Queen of the Seas passenger, uses her beekeeping skills.
Editor's Notes: Issue 1 began with a story by Jody Lynn Nye, taken from an upcoming 1632 novel set in England. Issue 2 has a story by Gorg Huff and Paula Goodlett tying in with 1638: The Sovereign States. Robert E. Waters, coauthor of 1637: The Transylvanian Decision, had the first story in Issue 3. My co-editors informed me I was on deck for this issue, since my books formerly with Ring of Fire Press are in the process of being republished by Baen Books. I think we will keep to this pattern for a while.
Genre: Science Fiction
