The Wild West would have remained too wild for even the most talented gunfighters to tame had it not been for the scouts, trappers, Indian fighters, freighters, soldiers, and settlers who preceded them. There were no towns to settle, no businesses to patronize, no rows to hoe, and no roads to travel. Everything had to be earned the hard way. For most men, it meant death and dismemberment. For others, it meant failure. Few and far between were those who found glory. Everywhere the iron horse galloped, civilization soon followed. Yet, who would have forged the trails that the iron rails ...

I survived the war and my first term at magic school. How hard could meeting the parents be?

Left twisting in the wind when the Transcontinental Railroad was completed in 1869 without touching its desert soil, Arizona languished in a prolonged battle with the natives and the elements. That ended with a silver boom in the Dragoons and a copper boom in the Mules. An untold wealth had been discovered in the desolate mountains of southeastern Arizona, with no easy way to haul it out. Overnight, plans began to connect Tucson by rail to Los Angeles and El Paso. At long last, progress was coming to the mesquite.

Arizona was on the verge of something special. The railroad came through at the same time as a silver boom in the Dragoons and a copper bonanza in the Mules. Tombstone was the fastest growing town in the whole country and statehood was finally on the tongues of Washington politicians. But nothing can sour a territory’s prospects like wanton violence, which was itself the story of Arizona’s luckless history. Every time progress dipped its toe into a desert waterhole, it found the temperature too hostile for its liking. It was just too wild, even for the west.

To add to the excitement, I end up hosted by an anxious unicorn elf named Pinky Peach who is basically a professional gamer girl.

Magic is real, and Reggie Hickson just got invited to be a wizard school summer camp transfer. Reggie was a self-made businessman who'd pulled himself and his oddball dad out of poverty through sheer determination and the glory of YouTube tutorials. Pretty impressive, honestly. That was until a three-inch tall sprite emerged from his coffee mug and told him he was a wizard. Scratch that—a warlock. Apparently there's a difference, and that difference involves stuff we probably shouldn't go into in this good Christian blurb.

Though it is for the sparkling epic, Aeneid, that the Roman poet Virgil is best known, it was these two poems, The Eclogues and Georgics, which first established his reputation.
