Eric Flint
31 SeriesEric Flint was an American author renowned for his 1632 series, specializing in science fiction, alternate history, and fantasy. He also worked as an editor and e-publisher for the Baen Free Library. Flint frequently collaborated with authors such as David Drake, Dave Freer, and David Weber. He became a full-time writer in 1999 after leaving a PhD program in History due to political issues.
Eric Flint collaborates with various authors to expand the "Ring of Fire" series, which begins with the pivotal event of a West Virginia town being transported to 17th-century Germany. In "1633" and "1634: The Baltic War," co-authored with David Weber, the series explores the political and military ramifications of this time displacement. Subsequent novels delve into specific historical and cultural conflicts: "1634: The Galileo Affair" and "1635: The Cannon Law" with Andrew Dennis focus on scientific and religious tensions, while "1634: The Ram Rebellion" and "1635: The Dreeson Incident" with Virginia DeMarce examine local uprisings and political intrigue. Further collaborations, such as "1636: The Kremlin Games" with Paula Goodlett and Gorg Huff, and "1636: The Papal Stakes" with Charles E. Gannon, introduce new geopolitical challenges and adventures across Europe and beyond. Each book weaves historical figures and events into a complex narrative tapestry, offering readers a blend of alternate history and speculative fiction.
