Overall this book is not a bad reading! One thing I must say though...the Julie Sims and the Gretchen Richter characters are complete BULLSHIT!! Totally unconvincing! I don't understand the point for Flint to make those two women look like terrible killers, with absolutely no emotions about slaughtering (in Gretchen Richter case, twice in cold blood too, no less) people by the hundreds! And what about Julie Sims almost killing Wallenstein? Really, just laughable!! Anyway apart from those two bullshit characters I enjoyed the reading! ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

A mysterious accident in time causes twenty-first-century American democracy to collide head-on with the Thirty Years War in seventeenth-century Germany as Mike Stearn and a group of armed miners take on a gang of strangely attired invaders who are threatening peaceful Grantville, West Virginia. Original. Freedom and Justice-American Style 1632. And in northern Germany things couldn't get much worse. Famine. Disease. Religious war laying waste the cities. Only the aristocrats remained relatively unscathed; for the peasants, death was a mercy. 2000 Things are going OK in Grantville, West Virginia, and everybody attending the wedding of Mike Stearn's sister (including the entire local chapter of the United Mine Workers of America, which Mike leads) is having a good time. Then, everything changed. When the dust settles, Mike leads a group of armed miners to find out what happened and finds the road into town is cut, as with a sword. On the other side, a scene out of Hell: a man nailed to a farmhouse door, his wife and daughter attacked by men in steel vests. Faced with this, Mike and his friends don't have to ask who to shoot. At that moment Freedom and Justice, American style, are introduced to the middle of the Thirty Years' War. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
