A Fantasy Western Tale. Alan made a promise to his dying father to protect his mischievous little brother. But after his brother gets on the bad side of a notorious outlaw and his gang, Alan's small town is pulled into a cycle of violence and vengeance. All the while, Alan is discovering that he is manifesting the ability to control fire, an illegal ability in the realm. To save his brother, Alan can harvest his special power and fight the outlaws, but doing so may cause him to become an outlaw himself. The choice between stopping the violence and keeping his quiet life is further complicated as his newlywed wife discovers she is pregnant. But, as violence grips the town, the mayor and his associates plot to rid themselves of the violence they accidentally started, even if it means sacrificing the lives of two farm boys. Full of gunfights, outlaws, gunslingers with magic powers, and shadowy secret societies, this weird west fantasy tale blends elements of a Spaghetti Western with elements of High Fantasy, while maintaining a story that’s small in scope, but rich in character.

The girl aims to ratchet the Iron Empire into a glorious new day of gears and steam. The entire palace is arrayed against her. The chambermaids disdain her. The emperor ignores her.

Los Zetas represent a new generation of ruthless, sadistic pragmatists in Mexico and Central America who are impelling a tectonic shift among drug trafficking organizations in the Americas. Mexico's marines have taken down the cartel's top leaders; nevertheless, these capos and their desperados have forever altered how criminal business is conducted in the Western Hemisphere. This narrative brings an unprecedented level of detail in describing how Los Zetas became Mexico's most diabolical criminal organization before suffering severe losses. In their heyday, Los Zetas controlled networks of American police, politicians, judges, and businessmen. The Mexican government is losing its "war on drugs," despite the military, technical, and intelligence resources provided by its northern neighbor. Subcontracted street gangs operate in hundreds of US cities, purchasing weapons, delivering product, executing targeted foes, and bribing the US Border Patrol. Despite crippling losses Los Zetas still dominate Nuevo Laredo, the major portal for legal and illegal bilateral commerce. They also work hand-in-glove with the underworld in Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras, as well as with gangs like the Maras Salvatruchas.
