I ordered it online and if it takes too long I can lend it to you.
I loved the tribute Flint wrote to Rick Boatright, so heartwarming. I knew Rick in high school and we dated a few times. Really nice guy.
I am also hoping that somehow the series can continue. There are enough experienced authors in it that they should be about to get something organized. I’d still read the series even though Eric Flint has passed.
Let me know when you finish it. I may have it by then.
The naval, North American, and main story lines are the ones I’m most interested in.
Grantville Gazette and Ring of Fire Press have been shut down. I gather the RoFP books can still be ordered until they run out, but that’s it. There are several I wanted to get. 8(
Damn, just damn.

The sun stood bright and hot over the “ruined” city of Nautla on the west coast of the Yucatán, which was being hacked back out of the dense surrounding forest even while other labor was under way to reclaim it.

I have it.
Great. I still hold out a probably forlorn hope they can keep the series itself going. I had planned on trying to write a Gazette story but that’s out now.
I’m sure there are at least a couple of works by other authors (with or without Flint) in progress, and hope they will be completed and published.
