"1636. The United States of Europe, the new nation formed by an alliance between the Swedish King Gustavus Adolphus and the West Virginians hurled back in time, is on the verge of civil war. His brain injured, Gustavus is no longer in command. Swedish chancellor Oxenstierna, a leader of aristocratic reaction against democracy, is gathering the forces of the hidebound ruling class to drown the revolution in a bloodbath. In Magdeburg, the capital of the USE, Mike Stearns' wife Rebecca Abrabanel is organizing popular resistance to Oxenstierna's plot. Princess Kristina, heir to the USE's throne, is now residing in Magdeburg and is giving them her full support. But another plot is underway--one in the heart of the capital itself, and with murder as its method"--… (mehr)

A good read that built on the stories from 1635: Music and Murder but can also be enjoyed as a standalone.

Has a lot more religious focus/influence than most of the series, I'm assuming that's David Carrico's influence. Reads a bit "messagey" in places, but not much so as to be off-putting.

Characters are well developed, multiple plots are skillfully woven together both within this book and tied into the larger series. The final reveal and the explanation behind it seemed a bit forced, but not so much as to detract from the rest of the book. (

A very enjoyable entry. I particularly like the way they keep the strands interwoven from the main story while revealing the lives of other characters. I would like to see what becomes of Simon Bayer. (

Another book in the Ring of Fire series. Gustuv is returning to the capitol after his long illness....the primary story is a murder, mystery with some political intrique. A good fun read. (

1636 Events from a different viewpoint, Two disparate plots woven nicely into a quite good story. (

This is really 2 novellas combined with one tiny common event, the common events were very forced and could have been left out. I liked both story lines, the music more than the crime, but it would read better as alternative chapters rather than jumping back and forth for no reason. (
