Larry Correia has already made a name for himself in the sci-fi/fantasy world with his Monster Hunter books, but now he's written the first in new series that takes place in New York in the 1930s, filled with dubious federal agents, hardboiled detectives, and dames with a whole lotta chutzpah. Except this isn't quite the New York you might expect, but an alternate universe where zeppelins moor at the top of the Empire State Building, the Titanic never sank and mad scientist Nikola Tesla has created a devastating weapon called the Geo-Tel. Oh, and people have magical powers. They are known as Actives. It's become commonplace for some people to defy gravity, teleport, manipulate animals, and heal by touch. The hero here is Jake Sullivan, a detective and ex-con who is set free by the FBI to track criminal Actives, which J. Edgar Hoover (yeah, he's still around) would like to eradicate.
Actor Bronson Pinchot has become a regular go-to for audiobooks and the reason is obvious – the guy knows how to bring a story to life. Far from his manic days as Balki on Perfect Strangers, Pinchot is a warm, imminently listenable narrator. He's obviously having a ball with Hard Magic, gruffing up his voice for the hardboiled Jake and the various G-men and employing a countrified voice for Faye, a young farm girl who can teleport across great distances and becomes vital to saving the world from destruction by the Geo-Tel. Pinchot gives each character a different voice, so it's easy to keep up with the big cast. Correia writes long, colorful descriptions of his characters and their situations, but those passages never become boring and never get in the way of the action, thanks to Pinchot.
Steampunk lovers will find much to love about Hard Magic, but listners who love big guns and explosions will be in hog heaven. There are epic, cinematic battles including one over-the-top of a dirigible that is audaciously impossible. Hard Magic almost defies categorization, because Correia has no problem blending science fiction with more fanciful fantasy, even managing to slip in double-headed dragons and imps. The second book in the Grimnoir Chronicles, Spellbound, is coming and let's hope Pinchot has signed on for the audio version. Collin Kelley
Jake Sullivan is a licensed private eye with a seriously hardboiled attitude. He also possesses raw magical talent and the ability to make objects in his vicinity light as a feather or as heavy as depleted uranium, all with a magical thought. It's no wonder the G-men turn to Jake when they need someone to go after a suspected killer who has been knocking off banks in a magic-enhanced crime spree.
Problems arise when Jake discovers the bad girl behind the robberies is an old friend, and he happens to know her magic is just as powerful as his. And the Feds have plunged Jake into a secret battle between powerful cartels of magic-users - a cartel whose ruthless leaders have decided that Jake is far too dangerous to live.
©2011 Larry Correia (P)2011 Audible, Inc.
This was the first book that my boyfriend and I listened to on audible. We were going on a long road trip and wanted something to pass the time. I like fantasy stories and he likes guns. This worked out perfect. We are now listening to the second book and really hope a third makes it out.
We both really enjoyed the storyline and the narration of all the characters was wonderful. It was easy to tell them apart. My favorite was Faye. She was definitely the comic relief, and her character really had me laughing out loud a lot.
My bf really liked the way that the inventions and things in the book came from actual concepts that real people have thought of, but never got produced. Like the peace ray. It wouldn't be a hard stretch of the imagination that if in some parallel universe things like that were actually made and put to use. The same goes for the deridgables, or blimps, in the story.
So if you enjoy stories with magic, weaponry, mentions of a few famous people in a parallel time of this world, and good vs bad, then this is one for you. I definitely recommend it.
"Correia's best series yet!"
This is a fun, fast-paced magical thriller, with likeable characters that are not too far-fetched, and a interesting, complex universe.
What sets this apart from Correia's other work (which is quite similar in terms of plots) are the characters. They're all sympathetic, substantive, and real, even the bad guys. Stereotypes are well done, conversation is punchy and enjoyable, but still realistic, and character development doesn't seem far-fetched.
The performance is just spectacular. Might take a bit of getting used to at first, but the gruff, almost gritty narration fits into the overall feel of the story really well, and the different characters are easily distinguishable.
This isn't exactly canonical literature, but it's a fun story, and good company on long drives or at the gym. Definitely recommended for a light-hearted yet engaging listen.
"Great story and Excellent narration"
Enough people have written about the story, which I loved, so I thought I would make this about the narrator. Being old enough to know of Bronson Pinchot from his start in Beverly Hills Cop and Perfect Strangers I was very hesitant to give this a try. But since I had just finished Monster Hunters and loved it so much I couldn't pass it up any longer.
I loved Bronson's performance and have a greater respect for him than I did before. Being able to identify all the characters without hearing "Sullivan said, Francis said" all the time was a relief. This was a true performance and not just another flat reading of a great story. The emotions of the characters could be felt, even when there weren't supposed to be any as in Sullivan's case most of the time.
I will gladly pick up any of his future performances without hesitation.
"Good Times for Hard Magic"
I have never been a fan of period based fantasy or science fiction. I find that my knowledge of the period stops me from dispelling disbelief in what I read. So it is harder to relate to the characters. However Larry Correia has done a masterful job of interweaving Jake Sullivan and the rest of the US Grimnoir Society into the fictional fabric of American history.
And without digging to deep into the characters too much, I think that Oke' Faye is one of the most memorable characters ever.
And then there is Bronson Pinchot. What little I know of his work was a mid level character actor. After listening to Hard Magic, this saddens me. His performance in this book is unnerving. It is that good. It was as if he lived each character. Combine the performance level with the detailed level of development provided in the Larry Correia's writing and you have a winning combination.
I want more.
Avid reader and love that audiobooks opens a whole new sense
"Realistic Film Noir reading"
I could picture every moment, the clarity of picturing the unique environment created was stunning, the story moved a little too slowly for me and I'm not sure I will bother with part 2.
"Great story!"
At first, I wasn't sure if I liked the story, but after listening for an hour or so, I was hooked. Great story, equally good narration. Will be reading Book 2 shortly.
Machinist, student of history, philosopher, Star Wars fanatic, hobbyist costumer, and all around Renaissance man.
"Coming to a Theater Near You!!!"
I really enjoyed the little differences and explanations concerning various historical events and quotes in this alternate reality.
Bronson Pinchot's performance was excellent! His portrayal of each character was distinctive. I couldn't possibly choose just one favorite!
This book needs to be on film! It's destined to become a big budget blockbuster!
"One of the best readers ever."
Bronson Pinchot gives a great performance and gives great voices to Larry Correia's characters. I really enjoy the Monster Hunter series and this has a similar flavor with some great new characters.
Love Star Trek
"What FUN!"
Don't be fooled by the cover which really really doesn't convey what's inside. Seriously please don't judge this book by its cover.
This was a surprisingly fun steampunk/alternative history, post-WW2, with the dark noir atmosphere magic/scifi comic book like action. And the enemy is the EVIL Japanese lord which I'd like to object to. However, to be fair I can totally imagine Japan under a dictatorship and become a nation blindingly following him. Unfortunately the author seems to have forgotten to check names so the main evil guy has a name with two last names instead of a first name but I can live with that.
In spite of all the cool gadgets like dirigibles, machine guns and nuke like bombs, I was most attracted to the characters in the book. They are in a way cookie cut superheros but are portrayed in a way you actually see them as people. On the other hand the villans were sort of predictable and boring.
Scenes and setting are definitely and deliberately described and set like a movie. Readers who are comicbook and managa readers will have just imagining the scenes.
*a bit spoiler*:
I also have to say that I found the explanation of the magic talents and how they develop is very interesting. The magic is caused by an entity that actually is alive and like a parasite they symbiotically live off human beings who can take magic power from it. It resides in a realm between life and death and only "very special" people can perceive it. However I would like to reread it to understand it better!
"Too macho for me!"
I can see how this book would be fun and inventive in its alternative history and magical flavor. I bought it thinking it to be along the lines of Dresden Files. But it's totally different. Not one to give up easily, I plodded on for 7 chapters but eventually the unrelenting violence and gore got too tedious. If you like shoot outs and stake outs and big guns and lots of macho violence, then this is one for you. Looks like mine will be the exception amongst all the rave reviews. This book is like a comic book audiobook. Full of Kerpows! and Bams! and Ouch! and non stop action.

nice ambience, huge space to move around and large sitting area...had been to the Andheri branch twice so was not quite enthu about this place. A big turn off is the parking and the entrance area...Location is the drawback,.

Well maintained restaurant with lots and lots of varieties of starters and desserts.Nice Ambiance and perfect to go with a group of people.
The restaurant has a huge spread from sushi to stir fry to fried statters then a whole buffet menu as well as dessert counter!
The interiors are just breathtaking. Food was good, some dishes were a bit overcooked. Sushi bar was my favourite place to be. For the price you pay it's alright. I wouldn't be coming here often but it's a nice experience once a while.
Just love this place. I have not seen such an elaborate offering of food ever. the staff is extremely courteous and attentive to your needs. the spread is just too huge and nice.

Blogs Cliopatria "Counter-factual History: A User's Guide"Jul 13, 2004 10:06 pm
"Counter-factual History: A User's Guide"
Martin Bunzl has an article [membership and registration required] in the current American Historical Review (that's the official journal of the American Historical Association, for those of you not in the field) which directly addresses the problems I tackled recently regarding Fleming's Hamilton-Burr duel fiction. Apparently, I'm right.
After allowing for the implicit counterfactual in causal statements, he says"Part of what is often going on here is, if not a parlor game, an enterprise without serious historiographical aspirations." He then goes on to point at a number of ways in which counterfactual arguments can be used to make important historical points, mostly having to do with known physical and social laws and rational, but minimal, assumptions. Ultimately, though, since history has no formal definition of causality, reliability or rationality, it is a" community standard" of reasonableness which must define, fuzzily, the limits of the use and utility of counterfactual argument. Comparative history can, he argues,"yield a basis for causal claims" but again it is a complicated ("messy" is the way he puts it) process which is rarely cut-and-dried.
He concludes with a nod back in the direction of imagination and the random element ("luck" he calls it) in history, saying,"in fact, not all historically interesting counterfactuals need to be plausible. If our primary interest is in understanding what difference an event made, whether or not its occurrence is plausible doesn't really matter." He points at the question (often debated on HNN) of when/whether slavery would have ended absent the Civil War; in Japanese history, the question was always what form the Tokugawa collapse would have taken absent Perry's intrusion.
Apparently this article will be the basis for an on-line forum in early September, when most of us are far too busy to do anything about it.
Note: the notice at the bottom of the article is rather troubling:
Content in the History Cooperative database is intended for personal, noncommercial use only. You may not reproduce, publish, distribute, transmit, participate in the transfer or sale of, modify, create derivative works from, display, or in any way exploit the History Cooperative database in whole or in part without the written permission of the copyright holder.I'm assuming that this doesn't apply to normal scholarly discourse, like this blog. I mean, what's the point of writing it, if nobody can quote and comment on it? And, that being the case, what's the point of putting this notice (at least the second sentence) on the article?

Isn't the notice simply a fair warning that gainful use of the work will not be tolerated? Pretty clearly, historians want their work to be cited and quoted under "fair use" conditions; but just as clearly we do not want term paper mills selling our work or anthologists appropriating it without seeking due permissions.

A mixture of visionary progressivism and repugnant racism, Abraham Lincoln's attitude toward slavery is the most troubling aspect of his public life, one that gets a probing assessment in this study. Columbia historian and Bancroft Prize winner Foner (Free Soil, Free Labor, Free Men) traces the complexities of Lincoln's evolving ideas about slavery and African-Americans: while he detested slavery, he also publicly rejected political and social equality for blacks, dragged his feet (critics charged) on emancipating slaves and accepting black recruits into the Union army, and floated schemes for colonizing freedmen overseas almost to war's end. Foner situates this record within a lucid, nuanced discussion of the era's turbulent racial politics; in his account Lincoln is a canny operator, cautiously navigating the racist attitudes of Northern whites, prodded--and sometimes willing to be prodded--by abolitionists and racial egalitarians pressing faster reforms. But as Foner tells it, Lincoln also embodies a society-wide transformation in consciousness, as the war's upheavals and the dynamic new roles played by African-Americans made previously unthinkable claims of freedom and equality seem inevitable. Lincoln is no paragon in Foner's searching portrait, but something more essential--a politician with an open mind and a restless conscience. 16 pages of illus., 3 maps.
Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
"A well orchestrated examination of Lincoln's changing views of slavery, bringing unforeseeable twists and a fresh sense of improbability to a familiar story." (The 2011 Pulitzer Prize Committee)
"Starred Review. Original and compelling….In the vast library on Lincoln, Foner's book stands out as the most sensible and sensitive reading of Lincoln's lifetime involvement with slavery and the most insightful assessment of Lincoln's―and indeed America's―imperative to move toward freedom lest it be lost. An essential work for all Americans." (Library Journal)
