No Man's Land: The Western
Black Market Fiction's Print Issue
The commercial market spent twenty years declaring the Western dead. Indie writers kept writing them anyway.
The June issue of Black Market Fiction collects four of those stories. Original fiction from authors the big publishers won't touch, plus Editor-in-Chief Kristin McTiernan making the case for John Brooder as the actual hero of Bone Tomahawk, and Managing Editor Tia Ja'Nae on how the genre refused to be retired by the people who wanted it gone.
You'll find trick-riders, bounty hunters, miners, and a horse that may or may not be Death himself, in stories about men facing impossible choices and the women who live with the cost.
The West, the way readers who never stopped loving it still want it.
