Book Reviews of the 1634: The Bavarian Crisis (The Assiti Shards)
Customer Review: The Butterfly Effect in the Ring of Fire
Summary: 5 Stars
Take 17th century history, throw in some serious romance, add some derring-do, some fine upstanding skullduggery, and throw in a bunch of West Virginia hillbillies for flavor. Mix well, and what you have is the butterfly effect (stolen straight from chaos theory) as applied to the "new" history of Europe since the Ring of Fire deposited the village of Grantville in Thuringia in the middle of the Thirty Years' War.
What happens if the most successful ruling family in all of recorded history (yup, those Habsburgs) decide to take a hand in changing the future they know from reading all those stolen books from Grantville?
What happens if a Habsburg princess decides she's a liberated woman? What happens if a young Habsburg Cardinal decides he'd rather not be a priest? What happens if they fall in love by radio?
What happens to these star-crossed lovers?
And will the artillery drag their huge guns overland fast enough to matter, or will everything be decided by air power?
If you want to know, read 1634:The Bavarian Crisis.
