Quicksilver

Description:

The Baroque Cycle, Book 1 of 8 In which Daniel Waterhouse, fearless thinker and courageous Puritan, pursues knowledge in the company of the greatest minds of Baroque-era Europe -- in a chaotic world where reason wars with the bloody ambitions of the mighty, and where catastrophe, natural or otherwise, can alter the political landscape overnight. ---------- Also contained in [Quicksilver: Volume One of The Baroque Cycle](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL38495W/Quicksilver)
