When Ross Garvey's prized Appaloosa is stolen from his Colorado
ranch, he fully intends to hunt down the thieves in their New
Mexico hideout and regain his best broodmare. What he doesn't count
on is bull-headed, fifteen year old Jaimie Callahan, whose horse
was also stolen by the same thieves. And he certainly does not
anticipate the beautiful Mexican girl who's dealing with the
thieves, nor the fact that an entire company of Mexican troops is
in on the deal
Howard Munns (1911-2002) was a gifted artist and student of life.
Born in a homesteader's sod hut on the barren plains of Montana,
orphaned by the age of 17, his early life was tempered by poverty
and hardship and annealed by the Great Depression. Self-taught and
nurturing his natural talent in a time when art was thought to be
no more than a frivolous waste of time, he channeled his passion
into steady work and slowly built a successful life. Tentative yet
tenacious, sensitive yet practical, he shouldered all burdens and
persevered, ultimately winning prosperity and satisfaction in a
life well-lived. Written in four installments over the last 20
years of his life, The View from the Summit is his story in his own
words.
In the realm of Zor, the tyrant Mal-Zor is maniacal in his quest
for the mythical Blue Crystal of power sends generations of
innocents to their deaths in the crystal mines. Jared, a young
farmer from a small isolated village, has paid scant attention to
the distant troubles until his younger siblings are taken as
slaves. Jared vows to free them and his quest soon becomes enmeshed
in the most magical power struggle imaginable. Accompanied by a
recalcitrant halfling, mounted on a huge black lion and supported
by an aging wizard and his daughter, Jared prepares to challenge
the king and claim his hidden destiny. The Blue Crystal is an epic
fantasy in the vein of The Lord of the Rings. A classic struggle of
good vs. evil, the story weaves together threads of honor and fear,
love and death, obsession and transformation. Readers of fantasy
fiction from teens to adults will thrill to the adventures of Jared
and Igli as they encounter wondrous dangers and fight for
deliverance from tyranny. Watch the book trailer here: http:
