Christoph Fischer is not only an avid reader, a scrupulous reviewer (IF you can get him to read your stuff), but foremost he is a writer with a deep sense of commitment to his own craft: Writing.
In his latest book, Fischer once again lays out a family saga with war in the distant background. Keeping the color scheme and the writing from his first two novels, The Luck of the Weissensteiners, and Sebastian, this book shows the Bavarian country side at its best with The Black Eagle Inn in the center. It is the name of a family business; to me it is also a foreboding sign of things to come as this was also an emblem on Germany’s flag.
As always, Fischer aptly inter-weaves political and religious themes with the very personal lives of his protagonists. The Black Eagle Inn is the third in the Three Nations Trilogy and—as do its two predecessors—this book offers an indirect perspective on war and its impact on ordinary people.
The Black Eagle Inn is slated for release by October 15.
