A novella that gained a huge following that loves the characters, the world, and the era. Refreshing mix of tradition and technology showing limitations of both.

Great book, glad I stumbled on it. The last book that captured me like this one was Silo.

I really enjoyed reading this book. It was an easy read with some fun characters and an overall interesting setting. The writing is pretty good and the integration of historical fact is really well done. Gave me a really good springboard into the 30 Years War, which I knew very little about. One thing that kind of bothered me was that sometimes Flint would be building to a zinger or implied answer within the book, but it would take too much build up before revealing what it was he’s been referencing with vague terms for the past three pages. That’s a minor complaint though, perhaps I’m just impatient.

Wow! I couldn’t put down this book! The heat indices this week prevented me from going out of my home during the day so I was able to indulge myself with one of the best books I’ve read this year. Read a book or risk heat stroke? Not a problem for me! Don’t think this is just another time travel book. This book has so many layers addressing anti-Semitic prejudice, religious freedom, human rights, women’s rights...everything we hold dear in 2019. So different from the way people reacted and lived in 1632! I very highly recommend this book! Love, love, love this author. I want to read more of his books!

I have always been skeptical about alternate reality books. This one creates a plausible method for its existence without stretching credibility. The characters are easy to identify with and easy to put myself in their place. I really enjoyed the book.

Very entertaining book, even if it's the second time I read it. Great characters and twist on our history.

I was pleasantly surprised at a most enjoyable read for a free download. The author does a good job of giving life and personality to his characters. If the author gets a bit bogged down on the history lessons I can more than forgive him. There were a couple chapters I the book so emotionally moving to me that I actually got a bit misty eyed. I enjoyed this book well enough to shell out the money to purchase his next book in the series, 1635
