AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'An Anthology of short stories by the Springfield Writers Group. These 18 stories span two thousand years of Earth's history and half a dozen different genres. All with a common thread: Halley's Comet. Dive into ancient Greece and Babylon, into Anglo-Saxon Ireland and Viking-era France. Indulge in tales of Genghis Khan, medieval Japan, regency-era England steampunk, alternate universes, and modern-day technology. From science fiction, to romance, to historical fiction and fantasy, there's something every reader will enjoy. Trace the comet's influence on lives, loves and families throughout the ages.'
