This eBook was produced by David Widger
"In the Fire of the Forge: A Romance of Old Nuremberg — Volume 07" by Georg Ebers is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative unfolds in the vibrant, albeit tumultuous atmosphere of medieval Nuremberg, centering on the lives and struggles of its characters. The story follows the Ortlieb sisters, Els and Eva, as they navigate social turmoil, familial obligations, and budding romances amidst the backdrop of city politics and personal tragedies. The opening portion introduces the sisters, who have just left the Town Hall amidst discussions regarding their family’s troubles and societal challenges. They learn of Ursula Vorchtel's engagement, which brings momentary joy amidst their personal struggles. However, darker themes emerge as they hear of arrests related to the accusations against their family, particularly touching upon the fate of their father and Eva's romantic interest, Heinz Schorlin. As Els interacts with various characters, including the city clerk and Countess Cordula, the weight of the unfolding events begins to envelop them, setting a stage rich with emotional conflict and the quest for justice and love. This opening not only sets the tone for the sisters’ trials but also hints at the intricate web of relationships and societal expectations that will be central to the narrative.
