Daggers In Darkness

SM Stirling, Daggers In Darkness (Eric Flint's Ring of Fire Press, 2021).

I was involved in proof-reading this novel but have not reread it since its publication. I have recently acquired a copy.

This blog regards SM Stirling as a worthy colleague and successor of Poul Anderson. Anderson wrote some alternative history fiction. Certain other authors, SM Stirling, Eric Flint and Harry Turtledove, have specialized in this sf sub-genre. I have not read widely in it. 

Its title page describes Daggers In Darkness as "Book Five of the Tales from the Black Chamber."

It is my practice to post about a work while (re)reading it so this will probably happen with Daggers In Darkness.

I thought that "Book Five" was wrong which was why I mentioned it.
