Collection number three of rollicking and idea-packed alternate history tales written by today's hottest science-fiction writers and edited by New York Times best seller Eric Flint.

After a cosmic accident sets the modern-day West Virginia town of Grantville down in war-torn 17th-century Europe, these resourceful everyday Americans must adapt - or be trod into the dust of the past.

Let's do the "Time Warp" again! Another rollicking, thought-provoking collection of tales by a star-studded array of top writers such as best seller Mercedes Lackey and Eric Flint himself - all set in Eric Flint's phenomenal Ring of Fire series.

Rock on, Renaissance! A cosmic accident sets the modern West Virginia town of Grantville down in war-torn 17th-century Europe. It will take all the gumption of the resourceful, freedom-loving up-timers to find a way to flourish in mad and bloody end of medieval times. Are they up for it? You bet they are.

The third rollicking and idea-packed collection of Grantville tales edited by Eric Flint, and inspired by his now-legendary 1632.

it's the MATERIALS stupid!

Several stories revolve planes and their development, great plot line.
Two issues first as a pilot with a pretty good grasp of aircraft mechanics the writers REALLY needed to talk to pilots and AP's (aircraft & power plant mechanics).
They would have learned IT AIN'T THAT EASY.
Two, auto engines do not make good aircraft engines. The two are meant for different very different jobs. For example auto engines run around 4K RPM aircraft engines 24 - 26K tops the result gear box and gear boxes in aircraft are always a big problem. And it's all about the materials. The best uptime guy for this Buster Beezly. Here's a a guy that lives and breaths air cooled engines. Worth his weight in gold.

I love this series!

The series is great as are the stories in this volume. I have the entire series as ebooks and read them over and over. The only issue that I noticed in this audiobook version of "Ring of Fire III" is that it is missing chapter 17 of "Four Days on the Danube" (the last chapter of the last story in the volume).

Eric Flint.....

......his short novella made the book. Without it I would written a "WTF" is this! Stick with main characters and one has a good read. My opinion only. But, I paid for this book so I can say what I please! LOL!
