The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

1634: The Galileo Affair is the fourth book and third novel published in the 1632 series by Eric Flint and Andrew Dennis. It follows the activities of an embassy party sent from the United States of Europe (Grantville) to Venice, Italy, where the three young Stone brothers become involved with the local Committees of Correspondence and the Inquisition's trial of Galileo Galilei.

The book contrasts the Roman Inquisition to the Spanish Inquisition, but may draw too sharp a line between the two, ignoring, for instance, the well-documented torture and execution of Giordano Bruno in 1600.
