Texas Tales: Red River Days

Western Short Fiction / Texas Frontier Anthology

“The Texas Frontier was magnificent, merciless, and free.”

Wade Maverick rides through deadly gunfights, moonlit nights, and shifting loyalties on the 19th-century Texas frontier.

From deadly gunfights in Paradise to the wild beauty of Red River days and moonlit Nacogdoches nights — Wade Maverick wanders a frontier where every choice carries weight.

Lawmen trying to keep the peace like dutiful sheepdogs. Outlaws preying on people like wolves. Pioneers risking everything to build a better life. Immigrants reaching for their piece of the American Dream. Comanches fighting to preserve their lands. A living connection between America's past and present.
