Publishers Weekly has given a rave review to my friend Richard Wheeler’s new novel VIRGIN RIVER. They say, in part:
Barnaby Skye returns for his 16th stirring western […]Wheeler’s lucid prose and excellent eye for detail make history come alive once again.
I’m glad to hear about this. A month ago, I wrote to Richard about this very issue–when we could expect the next Barnaby Skye novel–but I never heard back (Richard is always prompt in his responses, so I suspect an overly jealous spam blocker ate my message).
In any case, those who haven’t read a Richard Wheeler novel should give this book a try. His stories are wonderful, his characters palpably real.
I’ll be looking for this one. The last one of Mr. Wheeler’s novels I read was Vengeance Valley, a fine story. It was badly handled by the publisher(title changed, inappropriate cover). It probably would have sold more if done correctly.
