New York Times bestselling author of The Last Gunfight Jeff Guinn once again brings the Old West to life in the grand follow-up to Glorious. After barely escaping nemesis Killer Boots in the tiny Arizona Territory town of Glorious, Cash McLendon is in desperate need of a safe haven somewhere anywhere on the frontier. Fleeing to Dodge City, he falls in with an intrepid band of buffalo hunters determined to head south to forbidden Indian Territory in the Texas Panhandle. In the company of such colorful Western legends as Bat Masterson and Billy Dixon, Cash helps establish a hunting camp known as Adobe Walls. When a massive migration of buffalo arrives, Cash, newly hopeful that he may yet patch things up with Gabrielle Tirrito back in Arizona, thinks his luck has finally changed. But no good can come of entering the prohibited lands they ve crossed into. Little do Cash and his fellows know that their camp is targeted by a new coalition of the finest warriors among the Comanche, Cheyenne, and Kiowa. Led by fierce Comanche war chief Quanah and eerie tribal mystic Isatai, an enormous force of two thousand is about to descend on the camp and will mark one of the fiercest, bloodiest battles in frontier history. Cash McLendon is in another fight for his life and this time running is not an option."

Review:
Praise for GLORIOUS "Delightful . . . Wonderfully appealing. Glorious "is an old-fashioned western with likable characters who, because Guinn projects a trilogy, will return shortly." --Booklist" "[Guinn] knows how to dig into the past. . . . an absorbing, informative and entertaining tale of life, love, hope and ambition in the American West." --The" Dallas Morning News"

Fantastic Praise for "Glorious"
"An affable . . . bit of frontier mythmaking . . . readers may find by the end that, like Cash McLendon, they've become inexplicably fond of Glorious and its colorful denizens." --"The Washington Post"
"[Guinn] knows how to dig into the past . . . an absorbing, informative and entertaining tale of life, love, hope and ambition in the American West." --"The Dallas Morning News"
"A worthy addition to the western genre . . . Catnip for "Lonesome Dove" fans." --"The Seattle Times"
"Delightful . . . wonderfully appealing. "Glorious "is an old-fashioned western with likable characters who, because Gunn projects a trilogy, will return shortly." --"Booklist"
"This first installment in a trilogy will delight historical fiction fans longing for the return of classic Westerns. This entertaining outing is sure to keep the saloon doors swinging for more entries in the genre." --"Library Journal"
"The Wild West comes alive in this novel of prospectors, desolate cavalry posts, rotgut saloons and Apache raiders. . . . The plot is classic . . . good fun." --"Kirkus Reviews"
"Since he's already written about Wyatt Earp, Bonnie and Clyde, and Charles Manson ("Manson"), Jeff Guinn might as well create his own attractive bad boy. He's done so in this first-in-a-trilogy Western. . . . There's an interesting contemporary feel to this Western. City boy McLendon doesn't know how to ride or shoot or bust heads; what he knows how to do is observe, spy and think on his feet." --"Tucson Weekly"
"A trip to Glorious, Arizona, in Jeff Guinn's new western novel is like a cool draft beer after a long, hot day on a dusty trail. "Glorious" is old-fashioned in the very best way: it's good-hearted, optimistic, compelling, comfortable, and extremely well told. It's wonderful when an author clearly has affection for his characters, and readers will feel the same way." --C. J. Box, "New York Times"-bestselling author of "The Highway" and "Stone Cold"
"If, like me, you've been waiting for the next Louis L'Amour or Zane Grey, the good news is his name is Jeff Guinn. His newest novel, "Glorious," has all the elements of a fabulous Western: compelling characters, breathtaking scenery, and something more--an unblinking take on the western frontier."
--Craig Johnson, "New York Times"-bestselling author of the Walt Longmire mysteries

Guinn makes lively characters of historical buffalo hunters, and his imaginative take booms like a Sharps .50 as cultures collide across the Cimarron River Guinn's research brings to life the daily lives of the Comanche Few Westerns reach the level of "Lonesome Dove," but Guinn's latest is a better, more rambunctious tale than the trilogy's opener. "Kirkus Reviews"
Full of historical notable figures from the Old West, this second volume in Guinn s trilogy not only provides a buoyant narrative but also several lessons in Western history. This title is so well constructed that it could stand alone (for readers new to the trilogy). Guinn skillfully ties his carefully constructed prolog outlining the Massacre at Sand Creek (1864) to a lone female warrior he imagines at the Second Battle at Adobe Walls. "Library Journal"
A grand effort, and Quanah and his bogus medicine man, Isatai, are an entertaining pair. "Booklist"
