My Eric Flint Books

In Memoriam: Eric Flint

July 17, 2022 davidkeener 0

I just heard today that Eric Flint died at the age of 75. Besides writing good books, he’s done a lot for the SF field, especially the Alternate History sub-genre. He’s also helped expose the works of classic writers to new generations and helped out lots of new writers. Today is a sad day.
