Synopsis

Alternate history master Eric Flint returns in top form with an epic addition to the multiple New York Times best selling Ring of Fire series.

He’s determined to stoke the fires of democratic rebellion in Saxony near the main front, and thus keep the young nation he founded, and once led, out of the hands of medieval tyrants–tyrants who would like nothing better than to wipe those troublesome upstarts from the future off the timeline and go back to the bad old days of oppress
