4 ANDREW McBRIDE NOVELS RE-ISSUED AS E.BOOKS

Up until April 2017 I had 2 acclaimed western novels, THE PEACEMAKER – published by Sundown Press as a paperback and e.book – and SHADOW MAN published by Crowood Press as an e.book – available to buy.

Reviews of THE PEACEMAKER:

‘A great book’ Spur award-winning and Pulitzer Prize-nominated author ROBERT VAUGHAN

‘For pure writing style, McBride’s gritty prose nails the time and place of his story with bold authority. …this relatively new author has thoroughly, and rightly so, claimed his place among the top Old West storytellers.’ RALPH COTTON (also a Pulitzer-Prize nominated novelist.)

SHADOW MAN: ‘A little masterpiece waiting for you to turn the page.’

Well, now there’s 4 more!  My 4 other western novels, originally published as hardbacks and paperbacks, have now been re-issued as e.books by Crowood Press. They are CANYON OF THE DEAD, DEATH WEARS A STAR, DEATH SONG and THE ARIZONA KID. They too have received acclaim. I’ll be blogging about them separately over the coming weeks.

To find out more about them, where to buy etc. see my Amazon author pages, Amazon.com: https://www.amazon.com/Andrew-McBride/e/B01N9O1C05/ref=ntt_dp_epwbk_0

All 4 novels are all set on the wild frontiers of Arizona and New Mexico in the 1870s and 1880s. A harsh and beautiful wilderness of desert and mountain, where the Apaches under chiefs like Cochise and Geronimo fight the incoming white man. The forces of law and order clash with outlaw/ criminal elements – Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday against the Clantons, Pat Garrett against Billy the Kid etc., in legendary encounters like The Gunfight at the OK Corral. All feature CALVIN TAYLOR as the central character – former Indian scout turned man-hunter, Wells Fargo agent, Range Detective and sometimes sheriff…

Reviews of my work generally:

‘Tough, taut and elegant… characterised by assured storytelling… the Calvin Taylor books are quietly remarkable for their subtle reinvention of the western, eschewing clichés… the writing is powerfully evocative of time and place.’

‘If McBride's stories can't bring the western back to life, then someone better call an undertaker.’

Of CANYON OF THE DEAD, DEATH WEARS A STAR: ‘I have derived immense pleasure from Andrew McBride’s superb sequence of ‘death’ westerns, Canyon of the Dead, Death Wears a Star… and Death Song.’

DEATH WEARS A STAR: ‘Fictional re-run of the Earp-Clanton feud.’

DEATH SONG: ‘An enthralling read… Superb… like its predecessors, Death Song is the real McCoy, a tautly written, impeccably researched novel that deals expertly with the themes of revenge and racial genocide. It’s also a cracking adventure yarn that deserves the widest possible audience.’

THE ARIZONA KID: ‘A lean… re-casting of the Billy the Kid myth… Will delight fans of the well-told tale.’

As I say, I’ll be blogging about each re-issue separately over the coming weeks. Watch this space!
