“Forget Pecos Bill, Deadwood Dick, and even Buffalo Bill. Rawhide Robinson tops them all.”—Johnny D. Boggs, Western Writers Hall of Fame author RAWHIDE ROBINSON RIDES A WORMHOLE: The True Tale of Bravery and Daring in the Weird West Extraordinary things often happen to ordinary cowboy Rawhide Robinson. While riding herd on a ranch in the remote Nevada desert, a lightning strike zaps him into the middle of the twentieth century and the middle of Area 51, a top-secret experimental airbase where strange things are said to happen. A chance encounter with Eric, a young teenager, helps the discombobulated cowboy escape the clutches of military police, the CIA, and local law enforcement, and gets him mixed up in a kidnapping by Las Vegas mobsters. All the while, Rawhide Robinson entertains with his signature tall tales as he wonders if he will ever get out of the modern world and back to the Old West. “Move over Pecos Bill. Step aside Bunyan, and take that mangy blue ox with you. There’s a new man riding the range, a teller of tales as tall as the Rocky Mountains and as slick as a goose on grease. His name is Rawhide Robinson.” —Michael Zimmer, Wrangler and Spur Award-winning author

SPUR AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR ROD MILLER Orphaned, homeless, and on the verge of manhood, Wilson Hayes finds refuge in the employ of powerful rancher Jesse Longmore. Cowboy skills, tenacity, and grit propel the young man’s rise to a powerful position on the Fishhook Ranch and membership in the family—but Longmore’s belief that he has become a threat results in his driving Hayes away and into the uncomfortable company of an outlaw band and then a rival rancher. Follow Wilson Hayes on an empire-building quest of biblical proportions as he seeks a way home to the Fishhook. “Rod Miller has been taking home those Spur Awards, and it’s no small wonder. He’s a cowboy who writes like one, and even talks like one. But he’s got a real grip on the genre with Cold as the Clay. Don’t read it in an isolated line shack, it’s a tough story by a master storyteller.” —Dusty Richards, Western Writers Hall of Fame author

SPUR AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR ROD MILLER When Jonathon “Pinebox” Collins loses his right foot and lower leg to a cannonball in his first Civil War battle, the course of his life is forever changed. While recuperating, he learns The Dismal Trade of undertaking, the emerging art of arterial embalming, and coffin construction. His first customer is the victim of Wild Bill Hickok’s first showdown, and Collins crosses paths with the legendary gunfighter—and occasionally his victims—across the Old West. Lost love, monotony, and violence at the hands of men and Mother Nature repeatedly put the young undertaker on the road in pursuit of new places and new opportunities across the Western frontier. Violence is always there to greet him and there is never a shortage of clientele. Old West legends Phil Coe, John Wesley Hardin, Jim Levy, Porter Rockwell, Colorado Charley Utter, and Calamity Jane come and go in the life of Pinebox Collins, but death is ever-present. Often avoided and sometimes shunned owing to his practice of The Dismal Trade, Pinebox Collins learns to drink alone. Love eludes him and friends are hard to come by. His recurring acquaintance with Wild Bill proves the most lasting, even after Hickok is in the ground.

SPUR AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR ROD MILLER On a lonely road in a remote desert stands a roadhouse. Formerly a home station on a now abandoned stagecoach route, it is the only source of water and supplies for miles. Accommodations are crude and coarse, the hospitality rough and raw, the proprietor boorish and vulgar. Travelers are few and far between, and almost all must stop for water—which comes at a price. A mounted mail carrier who visits the roadhouse with some regularity suspects there is more to the place than meets the eye, and he comes to believe that for some travelers the roadhouse is the end of the road… All My Sins Remembered is destined to join the ranks of the frontier classic. Here is suspense as taut as freshly strung barbed wire, rock-solid period detail, and an emotional roller-coaster ride set against a West that is both historically accurate and stunningly immediate. Rod Miller does what only a handful of writers have ever done: make you care about (and even perhaps root for) an astonishingly evil man. —Loren D. Estleman Western Writers Hall of Fame author One of the more powerfully haunting novels to come along in years, Miller’s All My Sins Remembered stands shoulder to shoulder with such literary classics as Cormac McCarthy’s Blood Meridian and Charles Frazier’s Cold Mountain. A brutal, beautifully rendered masterpiece, guaranteed to stay with you long after the last page is turned. —Michael Zimmer Winner of the Spur Award and Western Heritage Wrangler Award It is not by chance that Rod Miller has taken his title, All My Sins Remembered, from Shakespeare’s Hamlet for this novel. Comparable to the Bard, his book is about madness—with Biblical dimensions. —True West magazine

SPUR AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR ROD MILLEROUTLAWMAN: The Life and Times of Matt Warner Matt Warner was an outlaw. And a lawman. In a word, an outlawman. Once among the most notorious bandits in the Old West, riding with Butch Cassidy and other famous outlaws, Warner was wanted for crimes across the Southwest, the Northwest, and the Mountain West. After serving time on overblown charges following a shootout, Warner changed his prison stripes for a badge and served as a town marshal, justice of the peace, and deputy sheriff. Whether wearing a black hat, a white hat, or some shade of gray, Warner outlived the Old West but never abandoned its wild and wooly ways. Follow the trail through Brown’s Hole, Robbers Roost, and other outlaw enclaves as a mysterious old man tells the outlawman’s story in a rundown barroom once owned by Matt Warner himself.
