Title: So much talk but where's the story?
Review: While 1632 had a real story and a heavy dose of history, 1633 was one chapter after another about nothing. Flint spends entire chapters of this 600 + page book of characters hashing out why they should use wood and not steel, going East and not West, and on and on.Europe is gripped in wars as empires battle each other and Flint spends page after page after page with how a radio works.The characters don't develop or grow and have as much depth as the paper they're printed on.I gave up on the book and Eric Flint.If you want to read alternate history, go somewhere else. If you want a soap opera on paper where you can fast forward two or three chapters and not miss anything, this is the book for you.
