Wild Frontiers: Nine Stories of the West

Wild Frontiers: Nine Stories of the West by Kevin M. Folliard & Misha Burnett &  digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

The Frontier: the line between civilisation and the unknown where pioneers rely on a strong will and a dead eye not big city laws.

A land where the sweat you shed makes a place yours, whatever lines the government draws on a map; where everyone knows putting on a badge doesn't make a sheriff better than everyone else; where the divide between legend and reality isn't always where it seems.

From aging settlers who miss the days when the town only had one street to decent folk who become gunslingers, from lawmen who find the solidity of the railroad is no protection from the devil to practical men who discover some monsters are more than heathen superstition, these nine tales will show you the West that was, that might have been, and might be again.

Each story in this anthology takes you along a different trail, but they share the grit and adventure that built the frontier.

Dave Higgins

Dave Higgins writes speculative fiction, often with a dark edge. Despite forays into the mundane worlds of law and IT, he was unable to completely escape the liminal zone between mystery and horror. A creature of contradictions, he also co-writes comic sci-fi with Simon Cantan.

Born in the least mystically significant part of Wiltshire, England, and raised by a librarian, he started reading shortly after birth and has not stopped since. He currently lives in Bristol with his wife, Nicola, his cats, Jasper and Una, a plush altar to the Dark Lord Cthulhu, and many shelves of books.

It’s rumoured he writes out of a fear that he will otherwise run out of things to read.

Dave Higgins weaves a cocoon of dread around you and won’t let you out” - Simon Cantan, author of the Bytarend Series.

There’s a running theme of the otherworldly, ranging from the very grounded and possibly-coincidental... to the dangerously potent....” - Neil Murton, author of Magpie Tales.
