DescriptionsEdit Descriptions

These are a series of short stories collections relating to the world created by 1632. The main series is Assiti Shards, which includes the novels and other story collections.The first four volumes were published in both electronic and hardcopy versions, distinguised by using arabic numerals (i.e. 1,2,3,4) for the electronic versions and roman numerals (i.e., I, II, III, IV) for the hardcopy.  The hardcopy also included a preface and short story by Eric Flint.The electronic versions generally come out on a bi-monthly basis, and Baen is not able to issue hardcopy fast enough to keep up. Accordingly, beginning with Grantville Gazette V, the hardcopy edition is a "best of" a half-dozen or so electronic versions, with the addition of a preface and short story by Eric Flint. Flint is quite up front that this forces the reader who wants to read all short stories to buy both the electronic and hardcopies, thus buying the "best of" stories twice. The hardcopy editions (designated with roman numerals) are also available in electronic formats, while the electronic editions are available from baeanebooks.com (from Volume 5 to the current edition).
