By Debbie Haskins
Those who love tales of the Old West have something to look forward to when
they open the cover of Waltzing With Tumbleweeds. Writer Dusty Richards, sweeps
his readers back to early days on the untamed frontier time and time again in
this varied collection of twenty original short stories, many of which have
received awards or been previously published in respected periodicals. With
his carefully crafted words and extensive research, Mr. Richards delivers a
distinct view into the sorrows, triumphs, and hearts of the men and women who
once inhabited a part of America that continues to captivate the attention of
each new generation.
With a western backdrop, so vividly described that the reader can see it, each
story introduces new and interesting characters with whom to become intrigued
and involved. He gives a fair share of attention to the experiences of cowboys,
outlaws, Native American men and women, soldiers, women of bravery and even
those of questionable reputation. This writer paints a convincing picture of
what life was like for these people and provides readers with fascinating settings
and exciting situations. The pages of Waltzing With Tumbleweeds pulse with goodness,
evil, romance, violence, passion, heart-break and other characteristics true
to the human condition. His experience as author of over 60 published Western
novels is evident in the way he has created such engaging and unique plots.
Mr. Dusty Richards knows how to weave a tale that keeps readers turning pages
and coming back for more.
