Another Good book exploring another area of europe and the impact of the grantvillers ( ) This is not a good place to start the series. That said, this book wove several main characters’ stories back together so we could see some interaction. Mike and Rebecca, Jeff and Gretchen, Julie and Alex, and many others make appearances both together and apart. There are three different battlefields with perhaps eight different armies!! ...and that becomes part of the problem with reading the later 1632 series novels. The cast list goes for pages. You need to take notes if you seriously want to know who is where, when. I enjoyed this more than some of the other novels in the series. It’s a bit less finicky and technical with “who’s who” than previous. This is not a good place to start the series.

It’s a bit less finicky and technical with “who’s who” than previous. A splendid addition to this excellent and sustaining series. Your vocabulary and sense of history about things Polish are about to expand. Europe at this time is a chessboard filled with Queens, King, knights, castles, and pawns plotting and making moves that will produce a different history than the one we know...The politics of empire, kingdom, and state-building provide Flint with the opportunity for a nudge here and a twitch there that will reverberate down the years. His knowledge of the history and its players enable him to produce a new symphony from its former notes. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
