The Great Revolt is On!
Europe, 1634. With the example of future Grantsville, U.S.A., a small town thrown back in time by a cosmic accident, a peasant revolt becomes a revolutionary movement. You're from the future. You want the serfs to liberate themselves-but you also know what a bloodbath the French Revolution became. Avoiding that possibility will take all American horse-trading diplomacy you can muster. The stakes: an explosion that could cover half the continent in blood!
Alternate history master Eric Flint and exciting newcomer Virginia DeMarce fire another exciting volley in Flint's engrossing "Grantsville" chronicles.
"[W]itty, tightly written alternative history."

Product ReviewI gave this three stars because knowing it is a collection of stories, the disjointed way it feels is understandable. Virginia DeMarce's writing style however is terrible. I find it difficult to follow and the character development is lacking. Overall, the only reason I finished the book, is I know it lays the ground work for future stories in the series.

Product ReviewI enjoyed this book a lot. It's somewhat disorganized, and it doesn't have the action and fast pace of some of the other collaborations (which I did miss), but it is interesting and well-written. I read almost all the other books of the series first, partly because of the negative comments by some readers. But I think it is worth reading, and in fact, very clever. It is almost a "Great" rating, and I'm giving it a "Good" -- my opinion only -- only because the many pieces of it aren't that well organized. I do recommend it highly.
