Description

This is the first issue of second year and it's all 1632 fiction. Thanks to our readers, we had a very successful first year. In fact, the first year of Eric Flint's 1632 & Beyond was so successful that we are lengthening the issues from 40,000 words to 45,000 words in Issue 7 and to 50,000 words in Issue 8 - for the same price!

Garrett W. Vance's "Ceaseless, The River Runs" continues the harrowing tale of a young couple beset by river pirates as they leave Asia for Grantville, with a little help from their friends.

In "Trudi's Trenchers" by Gorg Huff, a young woman comes to Grantville and almost accidentally starts her own food business.

George Grant delivers more lost mail in "Mail From Up-Time, Episode 2: Atlantic Giant."

"Stilettos" by Bethanne Kim is a classic tale of misunderstanding. Is a stiletto a shoe, or a knife?

Eleven-year-old Sandy Eckerlin is a good cook. His stepmother Summer is not. Working together, they start "Summer's Kitchen" making up-time style cooking implements, by Marc Tyrrell.
