My latest novel, Bushwa, is now available on Amazon.
Bushwa is the back story of Obadiah “Bushwa” Sparks, a character in the three-book Lockwood series. Setting is primarily New Mexico Territory during the Civil War when the Confederacy was attempting to expand the war and acquire that territory and other western states.
This book, featuring a character who is something of a scalawag, will be a bit different than many of my novels, but I will also be introducing some new more respectable characters. There should be ample action and a bit of romance as well.
The Mescalero Apache play an important role in this novel, and my research revealed a lot of information I had not previously known about the tribe. I have tried to weave some of this into the novel to share with my readers. In this regard, I discovered an excellent, easy-to-read book by James L. Haley entitled “APACHES, a History and Culture Portrait,” which I recommend to readers who enjoy non-fiction now and then.
I have tried to write a novel that runs the gamut of emotions, but I hope the reader will find more than a few laughs in this one. Regardless, the author has enjoyed writing it.
Some of my readers may be interested to know that four of my novels are now available in audio format. Tantor Media has previously produced an audio version of the Coyote series (Night of the Coyote, Return of the Coyote and Twilight of the Coyote). Now Ghost of the Guadalupe has been produced as an audiobook and recently been released. For those who are interested in audiobooks (or have friends and family who are), all may be purchased on Audible.
Until next time, best wishes and good reading,
Ron
