Ten stories of America's tortured frontier past from the acclaimed author of A Wind of Knives and the Boon trilogy.

A drifter gives everything he has to love a woman a cruel world won't let exist. A family battles hunger and grief against the worst possible odds-themselves. Madness and monstrosities descend upon a group of hopeful pilgrims traveling the westward trails. Ghosts both figurative and all-too-real haunt the men and women of the hostile west from within and without. And a couple of familiar figures-Edward Splettstoesser and Boonsri Angchuan-return one last time from the world of Boon in a pair of solo adventures.

"With Horseblood, we see the full spectrum of Ed's talent on parade." -Terrence McCauley, from his Introduction
