1634: The Baltic War by David Weber, Eric Flint

3.0

This is the third book in the "1632" series. Ok, it's not really, but it's the third of what could be called the main plot novels. There are any number of books in the series that follow events outside of Northern/Central Europe, written by several other authors either with Flint or on their own. I've read a few of the non-main plot books and eventually gave up on the series entirely primarily because I didn't really enjoy the minor plots that had been elevated to book status. I recently decided to give the series another try but only the main plot books, the result is "1634: The Baltic War." Perhaps in a few years I'll read the next book, perhaps the novelty of the series has worn off but I had a difficult time getting into this book. I hit a wall about have way through and had to force myself to continue on. There was nothing particulary wrong with the book or story, I was just uninterested in the characters and what happened to them. I gave it three stars but it's really 2.5.
