Security Solutions

It’s a matter of security.When the Ring of Fire drags Grantville, West Virginia back to seventeenth-century Germany, down-time veteran Edgar Neustatter finds himself among the survivors of a unit devastated by the up-time Americans and their Swedish allies. After wintering in Grantville, they return home to find that while they have changed, their village has not. Having glimpsed the promise of a republic ruled by its people rather than lords and tyrants, Neustatter leads his men and their families back to Grantville to establish a new agency: Neustatter’s European Security Services. The city from the future counts cowboys and detectives among its heroes—and still needs them. Join Neustatter, Astrid Schäubin, and NESS as they face desperate refugees, towns on the edge of revolution, and those who want to preserve the old order at all costs, while juggling basic training, modern education, and the day-to-day challenges of living in a boom town. Does NESS have the flexibility, training, and firepower to survive in the new timeline?

Neustatter’s European Security Services is open for business, and business is . . . too good?

With the National Guard, private industry, and even a seemingly tranquil farming village caught in an explosive political crossroads all relying on NESS for missions of security, Neustatter and Astrid find themselves pressed to staff, train, and equip the agency while keeping up with their clients’ growing requirements in scope and complexity.

-- A simple railway escort mission involves a secretive manufacturing client from Grantville bearing mysterious cargo and a captured fugitive all destined for Magdeburg during the Baltic War . . . what could possibly go wrong?

-- The Bible Society hires NESS to guard a flock of Anabaptist, Catholic, and Lutheran high schoolers en route to riot-torn Erfurt and Jena, but will NESS’s own pastor tear them apart first?

-- Already strapped for personnel, the last thing Neustatter needs is for a regiment of dragoon militia to choose their wagon train for . . . "involuntary provisioning."" Can a handful of badly outnumbered agents protect a village that isn’t sure it wants their help?

Missions of Security is the sequel to A Matter of Security, and contains the full text of the previously published short story, "Blood in Erfurt."

Neustatter's European Security Services encounters a campaign of industrial sabotage, a pastor who attempts to limit their client base, an espionage ring, and the aftermath of the Dreeson assassination. Old nemeses and new allies complicate matters.

Somewhere in Grantville is a missing heiress. There's also a Resistance, and it has cookies. Even repeat business with established clients is complicated, not to mention dangerous. Real life proves more complicated than Neustatter's movies or Astrid's books as NESS looks for common threads. Which incidents are related and which are not?

For Astrid Schäubin, solving cases, directing operations, and even portraying a saint are one thing, but figuring out dating in the midst of everything that's happening is quite another.

Security Threats is the third book in the NESS series, after A Matter of Security and Missions of Security.

When the Ring of Fire drags Grantville, West Virginia, back to seventeenth-century Germany, down-time veteran Edgar Neustatter finds himself among the survivors of a unit devastated by the up-time Americans and their Swedish allies. Soon, he establishes a new agency: Neustatter's European Security Services.

Our story continues in Volume 70 of the Grantville Gazette.

As war-torn Germany sometimes resembles the Wild West, Mike Watson gives us "The Marshal Comes to Suhl" based on what was remembered of the U.S. Marshals Service. Eric S. Brown and Anna G. Carpenter give us another chapter of the Monster Society, "Even Monsters Die," which brings the LARPers down to earth and back to reality. In "A Little Help from His Friends," Nick Lorance provides another look at Sergeant Richard Hartmann—Sergeant Whatsisname. Tim Roesch gives us an only partly hysterical look at schizophrenia in "The Monster Under the Bed."

In continuing serials, Bjorn Hasseler graces with another NESS (Neustatter's European Security Service) called "Kristallnacht on the Schwarza Express." David Carrico gives us the beginning of a new serial, "Letters from Gronow, Episode 1," while Gábor Szántai finishes his series on Hungary and Transylvania with a look at key players in those areas, and Chuck Gannon concludes his outtakes from "Papal Stakes: Faces from the Cutting Room Floor." Kristine Katherine Rusch talks about "Escapist Fiction" in her Notes from the Buffer Zone column.

Volume 69 of the Grantville Gazette begins with David Carrico's "Drumline," a story submitted to a down-time magazine. Next we have "Dr. Phil Rules the Waves" by Kerryn Offord and Rick Boatright. Tim Roesch gives us "Good German Axes." And Szántai Gábor introduces some Hungarian characters in "A Szekler in a Kilt."

Our serials are "Etude, Part 3" by David Carrico, featuring Johann Bach, and "The Long Road Home, Part 2" by Nick Lorance, featuring Sergeant Hartmann.

We have the seventh set of outtakes from 1635: The Papal Stakes in Chuck Gannon's "About the Faces on the Cutting Room Floor, Number Seven: The Exception That Makes the Rule: Cutting a Chase Scene." We also have Szántai Gábor's "Hungary and Transylvania, Part 3: Cities and Castles." It's loaded with information on key locations. Kristine Kathryn Rusch gives us an excellent "Notes from The Buffer Zone: History and Its Alternates."

In this issue of the Grantville Gazette, Kerryn Offord, tells the story of a government investigation in “Your Tax Dollars at Work.”

Mike Watson gives us a western, “Greetings,” while Eric S. Brown and Anna Carpenter have the next installment in the story of LARPers in Grantville with “The Lost Monster.”

This issue's serials feature David Carrico's Johann Bach in “Etude, Part 2” and Nick Lorance's Sergeant Richard Hartmann in “The Long Road Home, Part 1.”

In Nonfiction, Chuck Gannon focuses on pirates in “About the Faces on the Cutting Room Floor” and Szántai Gábor brings forth another installment of his social history, "Hungary and Transylvania, Part 2." And Kristine Kathryn Rusch gives us another “Notes from the Buffer Zone.”

We have both a Time Spike story, Garrett Vance's "First Cavalry of the Cretaceous, Part 3," and a Univers story, Debi Carroll's "Spitting Image."

The Grantville Gazette brings you a varied slice of lives this month. In “Death by Makeup,” Terry Howard and Martin Katchen show how even understanding the dangers of using lead-based makeup can change lives—while making the Hair Club 250 some serious money. And in “Overflow,” Terry shows another side of Club 250 as the Thuringian Gardens hires the Club for an overflow event.

In “It’s the Little Things,” Nick Lorance gives us the love affair between Sergeant Hartmann and Marta Karcher.

In Eric S. Brown and Anna Carpenter.s story, the Monster Society runs up against something big and white and living in a cave.

In “The Winter Canvas,” Meriah Crawford and Robert Waters give us the further tribulations of Daniel Block. Will the artist’s stubborn temper get the better of him again?

In our serials, we bring you “Etude, Part One” by David Carrico and in our nonfiction section, we have another look behind the curtain at Chuck Gannon’s novel writing for Papal Stakes, and our column by Kristine Katherine Rusch. We also bring you part three of “Life at Sea” by Iver Cooper.

Last, but certainly not least, we bring you “Hungary and Transylvania, Part One” by Szántai Gábor. Gábor (his first name) is a new author in the 1632 Universe and is from Hungary. He thought we should know about Eastern Europe in the time of the Ring of Fire, so he gave us a great nonfiction article.

Terry Howard opens Volume 66 with “Hair Club 250,” showing what happens when the Club 250 is remade as a hair salon and then in “Becket’s Blood” shows us a brave man courting martyrdom in the England of Charles I.

In “The Ghosts of the Blauschloss,” Margo Ryor involves her young girl detective writing circle in a real case of murder. New writer Anne Keener gives us “Stolen Reputations” about the Elsevier printing house. Nick Lorance provides “Transplanted Seed,” the prequel to his stories of Sergeant Whatsisname, Iver Cooper gives us a look at what a universal language might be like, in “The Tower of Babel.”

Kevin and Karen Evans conclude their “Engines of Change” saga with “For a Few Kroner More.” Eric S. Brown and new collaborator Anna G. Carpenter continue the story of the Grantville Monster Society in “An Army of Scarecrows.”

Virginia DeMarce looks at the court of Burgundy and the ubiquitous Rohans in “Les Futuriens, Part Two.”

Charles E. Gannon continues his behind-the-scenes look at what didn’t make it into 1636: The Papal Stakes with “About the Faces on the Cutting Room Floor, Part 4.” Jack Carroll shares a non-fiction piece, “1636: Marine Radio in the Mediterranean.”

In “Notes from the Buffer Zone: The Past Is Another Country,” Kristine Kathryn Rusch talks about the past being very far past and how the field of science fiction writing has radically changed.

“16 tons and what do you get. . . ?” In the new universe created by the cosmic accident that sent the West Virginia town of Grantville back in time and across continents to Europe in 1631, what you get is a steam engine powering a gantry crane, doing work that would have needed a dozen men and many more days in time. That’s from Kevin and Karen Evans’ “Engines of Change: Niels the Builder” in this issue of the Grantville Gazette.

Grantville’s existence has had many effects, both large and small. In Andy Rogers’ “A Pirate Made,” a young Dutch woman has the opportunity to become much more—or much less, and she takes it.

Meanwhile, in “The People You Know,” by Georgios Iconomou, a ne’er-do-well up-timer finally finds his niche in a coffee urn. Not all up-timers are heroes, you know.

Nick Lorance continues his stories of Sergeant Whatsisname in “Birthday Blues.”

Terry Howard and Jack Carroll tell the story of a self-important customs agent who interrupts what he thinks is a pagan sacrifice. Oops.

Eric S. Brown and Robert Waters continue the story of the Grantville Monster Society in “The Thing in the Up-time Attic.”

Virginia DeMarce gives us a look at the inside of the court of Burgundy, and the ubiquitous Rohans in “Les Futuriens, Part One.” And Charles E. Gannon continues his behind-the-scenes look at what didn’t make it into the book in “Papal Stakes: Faces from the Cutting Room Floor, Part 3.”

Iver Cooper continues his article on “Life at Sea, Part Two,” and Garrett Vance adds another chapter to the Time Spike serial, “First Cavalry of the Cretaceous 2: Lovebirds.”

In her column, “Notes from the Buffer Zone,” Kristine Katherine Rusch talks about collections and collectibles. One of the things that appears to be true of science fiction and fantasy is that fans collect books . . . and other things.

In "Matters of State: The Escape" Mitchell Townshend shows what happens when amateurs try to capture a professional espionage agent, who is bent on escaping the tyranny that England has become.

Bjorn Hasseler’s "Reed and Kathy Sue" is a love story told in letters between Reed, at the front lines, and Kathy Sue, at home with the kids and all the daily strife. Their letters are enlivened by their unapologetic and truly living faith in God.

"The Night Soil King" by Joy Ward and Walt Boyes tells the story of a survivor of the Great Drowning of Men, and his forbidden love affair with a burgher’s daughter—and what that love will make them do. Civil Engineering and revolution await.

Rainer Prem continues his serial, "Ein Feste Burg" with its 23rd episode. Moritz von Hessen saves the day for his aunt Amelie.

In nonfiction, we have part two of Charles E. Gannon’s outtakes "From the Cutting Room Floor." This is an extremely interesting look at what doesn’t make it into a novel, that novelists don’t usually show.

Iver Cooper gives us a look at "Life at Sea," which may be different than what you think it was like. This is part one of a multi-part series.

Kristine Katherine Rusch gives us her column, "Notes from the Buffer Zone." This issue, she reminisces about the future, from the vantage point of a USB stick shaped like Snoopy Beagle.

And in the Universe Annex, we give you "A Green Tongue," by Frank Dutkiewicz, in which a diplomat must find a way to communicate with a vegetable.

In "Ultimate Airport Magdeburg: Blacktop" Kerryn Offord shows us what happens when a couple of cut-ups find themselves in the middle of an emergency. In "Engines of Change: Digging Deeper" Kevin and Karen Evans continue their stories about steam engines. "In That Place," by Tim Roesch, is a hard-edged story about what happens when Blaise Pascal’s father has finally had enough of the "Greatest Mathematician in the World" and gives him a dressing-down that he’s deserved ever since the young man arrived in Grantville. Eric S. Brown and Robert E. Waters show us what happens when LARPers don’t think things through in "The Wampus of Grantville." And don’t worry, the dog doesn’t die.

Tim Sayeau shows his versatility as a writer with two stories this month. In the first, "The Bad Seed," he poignantly shows the dangers of knowing the future as a father and mother come to terms with the fact that in the Original Time Line, their three-year-old daughter became an adulteress and a murderer. In Sayeau’s second story, "You’ve Got to Be Kidding!" he shows us what really happens backstage when Gustav II Adolf names Thorsten Engler the "Count of Narnia." We continue mining the humorous vein with Jackie Britton Lopatin’s "The Invisible Dogs of Grantville" which starts out innocently enough as a young man finds a gag stiff leash with collar attached.

Our serial "Ein Feste Burg" continues, as Rainer Prem details what happens when a family squabble leads to attempted murder. In her essay this month, Kristine Katherine Rusch talks about the effect of Star Wars on herself and society. And in an excellent non-fiction piece, Sean Little discusses the effect of a single set of books from the future on the design and construction of warships in the 1632 Universe. Finally, but certainly not least, we present a look into the process of building a novel as Charles E. Gannon shows us some "Faces from the Cutting Room Floor" that didn’t make it into his collaboration with Eric Flint, 1635: The Papal Stakes.
