Acerca deste livro eletrónico
First in the weird west Golgotha series set in “a fascinating world that reads like a mashup of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Deadwood” (RT Book Reviews).
Nevada, 1869: Beyond the pitiless 40-Mile Desert lies Golgotha, a cattle town that hides more than its share of unnatural secrets. The sheriff bears the mark of the noose around his neck; some say he is a dead man whose time has not yet come. His half-human deputy is kin to coyotes. The mayor guards a hoard of mythical treasures. A banker’s wife belongs to a secret order of assassins. And a shady saloon owner, whose fingers are in everyone’s business, may know more about the town’s true origins than he’s letting on.
A haven for the blessed and the damned, Golgotha has known many strange events, but nothing like the primordial darkness stirring in the abandoned silver mine overlooking the town. Bleeding midnight, an ancient evil is spilling into the world, and unless the sheriff and his posse can saddle up in time, Golgotha will have seen its last dawn . . . and so will all of Creation.
R. S. Belcher’s The Six-Gun Tarot is “an astonishing blend of first-rate steampunk fantasy and Western adventure” (Library Journal, starred review).
“A jaw-dropping first novel that explodes across genre lines. Wild, gritty, insanely inventive and a hell of a lot of fun!” —Jonathan Maberry, New York Times–bestselling author
“If you want to see what Weird Westerns are all about, there’s no better place to start than The Six-Gun Tarot.” —Mike Resnick, Hugo and Nebula Award-wining author
