[MR] There Will Be Dragons and the SCA

[Dexter Guptill]

"Dies the Fire" is also the other side of the coin from Stirling's
"Island in the Sea of Time" series.  In the "Island" series, Nantucket
and an oval area of ocean around it, gets scooped up and dropped into
the Bronze Age. In DtF, as all the other stuff is hitting the fan, the
population  / buildings / etcetera of 21st-C Nantucket vanish,
reverting it to prehistoric condition.
