A review by astrilde
Eifelheim by Michael Flynn
4.0
A very interesting idea for a book which I would describe as a cross between Historical Fiction and Sci-fi. Most of the book tells the historical side of the tale; of beings from another world stranded in a small 14th century german village and seeking a way home despite being viewed as demons by many of the locals.
I have to say, my favourite parts were the visitors and the local priest trying to communicate about science using only words and concepts that would have been understood by a scholar/priest of the time.
