More Glimpses of Grantville Influence
By Arthur W Jordin
Grantville Gazette III (2006) is the third SF anthology based on this electronic magazine. This volume contains seven stories, one serial, and four fact articles. It also includes a Preface, an Images note and a statement about Submissions to the Magazine.
Fiction Stories:
Postage Due by Eric Flint reveals the process of developing postage stamps within downtime Europe.
Pastor Kastenmayer's Revenge by Virginia DeMarce relates the events leading up to the confirmation and marriage of seven Grantville men.
The Sound of Music by David Carrico explains the influence of rock and roll upon the formation of a downtime group to save uptime music.
Other People's Money by Gorg Huff depicts the accidental, but fortunate, establishment of an investment fund in Grantville.
If the Demons Will Sleep by Eva Musch tells of the horrific experiences of a Slovak woman.
Hobson's Choice by Francis Turner is about the education of a common barmaid.
Hell Fighters by Wood Hughes conveys the events that lead a Benedictine monk to a new vocation.
Serial:
Euterpe, episode 2, by Enrico N. Toro takes Maestro Giacomo Carissimi from Rome to Grantville.
Fact Articles:
Iron by Rick Boatright is about the production and use of iron in a modern society.
The Impact of Mechanization on German Farms by Karen Bergstralh is about the nature of German farms, the economics of mechanization, and the necessary infrastructure to support such technology.
Flint's Lock by Leonard Hollar, Bob Hollingsworth, Tom Van Natta, and John Zeek is about the selection of the SRG as the standard infantry weapon.
Alchemical Distillation by Andrew Clark is about the production of aspirin.
These tales suggest one of the major underlying themes within the Ring of Fire stories: the altered perceptions and opportunities of downtime women. While the military might of Grantville is necessary for the survival of its citizens and ideals, its major influence in downtime culture would seem to lie in its redefinition of the role of women within that society. This new concept of the female sex created shockwaves among both the men and women of seventeenth century Europe, particularly within the upper classes.
This collection continues the high quality writing of the previous volumes. Apparently the interactive nature of these stories has refined them into outstanding material. Enjoy!
Highly recommended for 1632 fans and for anyone else who enjoys tales of historical fiction and cultural conflict.

Better
By Jedidiah Carosaari
Yes, anthologies are a craps shoot, where you can get the good, the bad, and the very ugly. All of that is present here, only accentuated due to a number of first time authors writing. It's not bad to be a first time author- but throw a bunch together, and you get a higher statistical likelihood that things won't go right.
So some of these stories are incredibly boring and you have to drag through them. Some of them are better, an improvement over Gazette II. Of particular note were "Postage Due" by Flint, which was the first of his short stories to have minor interest, on the invention of the postage stamp through porn. "Sound of Music" had some beautifully movements, and "Hobson's Choice" a very good etic look at Grantville from Cambridge, as they struggle with the roles and rights of women.
"Euterpe" was long-winded, and had the promise of something more, but hasn't quite gotten there yet. The others with one exception are too boring to mention. That exception is "Hell's Fighters", the story that is well written about a Benedictine monk realizing his life's calling in Grantville, and the calling of his order. But this is the story that falls into the "ugly" category, with far too gratuitous and vivid violent scenes that could have been neatly referred to rather than exploiting the death of children.
Lastly, the nonfictional bits about life in 1600's Germany were mostly uninteresting as usual, but a shining gem was the work on mechanization of German farms, as it taught about the history of farming technology and how it could possibly be applied to life in 17th century Germany.
I'd recommend reading the book if you're into the 1632 series. But I'd recommend borrowing over buying.

One of the Authors Speaks
By Wood Hughes
As the author of "Hell Fighters", I wanted to point out that this was the first fiction I ever attemped to write that I completed. So, I appreciate the positive feedback I've received and actually studied and took to heart the criticisms the story got. It helped that they were on point, and no "It sucked". :-)
But, for those of you interested in buying the paperback version, here's a snerk. At the heart of it, Hell Fighters is actually a real estate story! I'm a full time commercial real estate agent and while arguing on the Baen 1632 Bar, Virginia DeMarce replied to one of my criticisms that I needed to read 1632 again from a real estate perspective.
I took her up on it and to my surprise, I found a lot of well thought out real estate references. However, I identified three glaring omissions.
First, there were no mention or use of the real estate agents that came back through the Ring of Fire. I looked them up on the demographic grid and discovered that there were three brokers and a good number of agents. I proposed a biography for each of the brokers and agents. Eric and Virginia accepted them.
Then, I saw a boom town with no building codes. After arguing that building codes were vital to the safety of the growing town, it became apparent to me that the only way I was going to win my point was to actually write a story. The New Year's Eve Fire was a direct result of that argument. I won.
Finally, the definition of title is ownership of the bundle of rights from the center of the earth to the edge of the atmosphere. The latter came about after the launch of Sputnik back in the fifties.
Just because a three mile sphere got swapped across time and space, didn't terminate the actual ownership of that real estate from the original seventeenth century owner. At most, it meant that the citizens of Grantville owed rent for the space they occupied on top of the original property that remained. So, I came up with a way to "quiet the title" to the land. That lead me to a monk who had given up all claim to any earthly posession. Virginia DeMarce explained the historical way that could have happened in the real world of 1632, and the rest is... well, alternate history.
I like stories that you can read from several different angles. I hope you do too. The four stars instead of five means that I acknowledge that the overall quality of writing in this book is not that of Eric Flint, Jack McDermitt, or Robert Heinlein. It is very good fan fiction though and having read more of the stories by this group of authors, I can assure you that you will be enjoying more of their work.
That includes me. I just sold my second story to the Grantville Gazette for volumes twenty through twenty five. "Turn Your Radio On", A novella! At this rate by the turn of the Twenty Second Century, I might actually sell a book! :-)
