Watt O’Hugh III is a self-made man, Civil War vet, time roamer, former orphan of the New York slums and dime novel hero of the lost, magical west of the 1870’s-and his riotous adventures mark one of the most original literary fantasy novels in recent memory.
When O’Hugh returns to New York as the star of a wild west show, he thinks his ship has come in . But that’s before he wakes in the Wyoming Territorial Prison in Laramie facing a murder charge, a corrupt Wall street banker turned outlaw and a 2000-year-old Chinese mystery that could change the world forever.
Steven S. Drachman has written for the New York Times, The Washington Post, The Boston Phoenix, Entertainment Weekly, The Village Voice and The Chicago Sun-Times.
