  Caution! Gateway Drug! This is a page-turner that will have you obsessively clicking for the next installment. Halfway through, my son informed me that behind "1632' lurks a fan site, wiki site, Wikipedia page, discussion forum, and the Official Site (1632.org) with a couple dozen more novels about the future/past happenings in this alternate universe. Readers beware -- highly addictive! I posted this on 30 May 2011

• Famous Stories Every Child Should Know finished

  Charming! Interesting stories worthy of saving for future generations. Rab is very sad and involves breast cancer but even children are aware of such things.
  
  Someone mentioned the religious slant but this is part of the times and no different than stories from other cultures that mention their gods. I'd hate to dismiss out of hand every single literary work that mentioned somebody's beliefs. I posted this on 23 April 2011

  A Worthy Read An interesting look at another time, another life, and a different state of mind. The ending was abrupt but not entirely unsatisfactory. I posted this on 23 April 2011

Eric Flint - 1632 a Gateway Drug

I had no idea when I started reading 1632 that behind it lurks a fan site, wiki site, Wikipedia page, discussion forum, and of course the Official Site with a couple dozen more novels about the happenings in this alternate universe. Readers beware - this stuff is highly addictive.
