Book Reviews of 1634: The Galileo Affair (The Assiti Shards)

Book Review: Dissapointed
Summary: 1 Stars

I also am a follower of the series and was dissapointed by the long drawn out pointless plot. I kept reading more each day hoping that the story would pick up or at least become interesting. What I intially liked about the series was when the story slowed it was at least interesting, but this book was torture, and you feel no connection at all with the characters. The well has run dry and Im gone from the series

Summary of 1634: The Galileo Affair (The Assiti Shards)

As the Thirty Years War continues to ravage Europe, the American town hurled from the 20th to the 17th century by a mysterious force has aroused the implacable hostility of Cardinal Richelieu of France, who has allied with this old enemies to stop this new threat to privilege and power. But the Americans and their Swedish allies are also moving behind the scenes, sending a medical team to Venice to prevent a plaque, communicating with the Ottoman Empire, and reaching out to the Vatican, which has misgivings about Richelieu's lust for power. But a Venetian artisan may cause all their plans to come to naught. After reading a 20th Century history book, he has become determined to rescue Galileo from his trial for heresy. The Americans are divided on whether to help him or stop him - and whether he succeeds or fails, the results may be catastrophic for the CPE.
