First Time in Paperback. The New York Times Best-Selling Series Continues. Return to Grantville, the American Town Lost in Time, and the Home Town of the Most Popular Alternate History Series of Them All.

Â Â The most popular alternate history series of all continues. When an inexplicable cosmic disturbance hurls your town from twentieth century West Virginia back to seventeenth century Europeâ€”and into the middle of the Thirty Years Warâ€”youâ€™d better be adaptable to survive. And the natives of that time period, faced with American technology and politics, need to be equally adaptable. Hereâ€™s a generous helping of more stories of Grantville, the American town lost in time, and its impact on the people and societies of a tumultuous age.

Â·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Cardinal Richelieu, Franceâ€™s insidious master plotter and power behind the throne, learns of his prominent role in Dumasâ€™ not-yet-written novel The Three Musketeers (not to mention the several movie versions), and starts a search for the â€œrealâ€ Dâ€™Artagnan.

Â·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Grantville is selling crystal radio sets so that Europeans can tune in to the Voice of America broadcasts, but the technicians from the future are at witâ€™s end, trying to reproduce â€œprimitiveâ€ early twentieth century broadcasting equipment by trial and errorâ€”until a trained library researcher shows up in town.

Â·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â The Dalai Lama of the seventeenth century receives a strange gift: an image of the Buddha which glows by a strange mystical force called â€œelectricity.â€

Â Â And much more, including stories by the New York Times best-selling writers Eric Flint and Virginia DeMarce, in the latest installment of this best-selling alternate history series.
