Acerca deste audiolibro

A mysterious cosmic force—the “Ring of Fire”—has hurled the town of Grantville from 20th century West
Virginia back to 17th century Europe, and into the heart of the Thirty Years War. With their seemingly magical
technology, and their radical ideas of freedom and justice, the time-lost West Virginians have allied with Gustavus
Adolphus, King of Sweden, to form the Confederated Principalities of Europe, changing the course of history—in
ways both small and large. The saga begun in 1632 continues with all-new stories by New York Times bestselling
authors Eric Flint and Andrew Dennis, plus Dave Freer, K. D. Wentworth, and other top writers, as the time-lost
Americans attempt an underwater salvage operation to raise the sunken Swedish flagship, the uprising known as the
Ram Rebellion continues, Cardinal Richelieu plots to destroy Grantville and its allies, an American prisoner of war
carries on a dangerous romance with the Danish King’s daughter, and more in a volume that no fan of the Ring of Fire
series will want to be without.

Acerca do autor

Eric Flint was born in southern California in 1947. He received a bachelor's degree from UCLA in 1968 and did some work toward a Ph.D. in history, with a specialization in history of southern Africa in the 18th and early 19th centuries, also at UCLA. After leaving the doctoral program over political issues, he supported himself from that time until age 50 as a laborer, machinist and labor organizer. In 1993, his short story entitled Entropy and the Strangler won first place in the Winter 1992 Writers of the Future contest. His first novel, Mother of Demons, was published in 1997 and was picked by the Science Fiction Chronicle as a best novel of the year. He became a full-time writer in 1999. He writes science fiction and fantasy works including The Philosophical Strangler and the Belisarius series. George Guidall is one of the most prolific narrators of audiobooks in the world. He has recorded nearly 650 unabridged novels, everything from "Crime and Punishment" and "The Iliad" to "Snow Falling on Cedars." He began his career as an actor, appearing on Broadway and touring Europe with Helen Hayes in the "Glass Menagerie," " Miracle Worker" and "The Skin of Our Teeth." He received an Obie Award for Best Performance Off-Broadway, and has continued his performances in theater for over 40 years. Guidall has also appeared on television, with roles on the soap "One Life to Live" and "Law and Order," and in movies such as "Malcolm X" and "Tales from the Darkside." His first job reading audiobooks was for the Library of Congress' American Foundation for the Blinds' Talking Books. Since then he has won the most prestigious Audiobook Award, the Audie Award, for Best Unabridged Narration of a novel for his recording of John Irving's "A Widow for One Year." He won the Audie again in 2000 for Wally Lamb's "I Know This Much is True."
