1635: The Wars for the Rhine by Diamond Comic Distributors Inc
An exciting addition to the multiple New York Times best-selling Ring of Fire alternate history series created by Eric Flint. Time travelers from our modern age are thrown into the deadly straits of the Thirty Years War in Europe of the 1600s. In the year 1635, the Rhineland is in turmoil. The impact of the Ring of Fire, the cosmic accident which transported the small modern West Virginia town of Grantville to Europe in the early seventeenth century, has only aggravated a situation that was already chaotic. Perhaps nowhere in central Europe did the Thirty Years War produce so much upheaval as it did in the borderlands between France and Germany. Archbishop Ferdinand of Cologne shares the religious fanaticism of his older brother, Duke Maximilian of Bavaria. He is determined to restore the power of the Catholic Church over the middle Rhine, the so-called “Bishop’s Alley,” and has unleashed a plot for that purpose. But that same middle Rhine is territory which Landgrave William V of Hesse-Kassel is determined to seize for himself, under the guise of expanding the influence of the United States of Europe.Anette Pedersen is a Danish actress who was born and raised in the country. Because of her father's passion for science fiction, she grew up reading it in both English and Danish. She's contributed to anthologies edited by Eric Flint with stories set in his Ring of Fire alternate history setting. Anette worked as a geologist and a micropaleontologist before retiring. She is a deacon and church accountant, as well as an avid gardener and cook. She paints botanical images to professional standards, but not at professional speed, she claims.
