Take a trip with Artemis and his young side-kick Frolic, across the western frontier. From the barren region of New Mexico to the icy cold terrain of Alaska, Artemis and Frolic must outwit Catfish Grime and his lovely, but mean spirited lady friend to revenge his uncle’s death and recover the lost treasure. Myers reveals the story of a young man who continuously must choose the righteous path in a sinful world. Frolic entered the journey as an adolescent and crosses the threshold into manhood by the end of their excursion. This is an excellent choice for first time western readers.

Giddy-up Cowpokes!! Join 14-year old Riley for a fast-paced, action-packed, gun-toting western with corrupt lawmen, greedy moonshiners, and a fortune in gold coins. Riley and his fiddle-playing Gramps set out to save the family, the farm, and the oil-rich town of Sparrow. This is an exciting, fast-reading story of a young boy who finds courage and strength to overcome many obstacles and situations to save the day. A must for fans of the old west!!
