About this ebook
If you've gained your knowledge of the Wild West from Hollywood and history textbooks, your mage of the Western frontier is simple and clear: White men winning the West and saving helpless white future wives from outlaws or hostile Indians or Mexican bandidos.
You won't find that here.
Here:
U.S. Marshal Frederick Douglass fights invaders from outer space.
A Navajo girl must thwart the god who threatens all she holds dear.
A Hasidic high planes drifter faces New World bandits and Old Testament demons.
A Catholic priest contends with a magic-wielding half-breed--or is she an indigenous spirit?--as the fate of the Canadian Métis province of Assiniboia hangs in the balance.
Outcast women enter the Southwestern desert to die...or win their lady loves and great mecha steeds.
A lost gunman may find himself in a Chinese gold miner's maze of mist and magic.
Roving spirits and Civil War survivors and runaway factory slaves lose or find family or love in uncanny new guises.
Hoboes rob a train of myth and dream.
An Eastern city slicker may outsmart only himself in a contest with Old West magic.
A black homesteader fights fae in defense of land and family.
A werewolf-hunting frontier shapeshifter shatters every expectation.
Steampunk airships may unite West and East--or leave them forever apart.
The ascendant Aztec face endless destruction if the god of war triumphs.
The South will rise again at the Alamo--if it can gain eerie otherworldly assistance.
This anthology, like its predecessor, Lost Trails: Volume One, exists to recognize and celebrate the diverse realities of the historical
West with excellent and entertaining Weird West stories.
Welcome to the Weird West more realistic than many a mundane Western!
