Description:

A weird western, a gun-toting, cigarrillo-chewing fantasy built from hangman’s rope and spent bullets. The west has never been wilder. A Steampunk-Western-Fantasy from Guy Adams. *“You wish to meet your God?” the gunslinger asked, cocking his revolver, “well now... that’s easy to arrange.”* Every one hundred years a town appears. From a small village in the peaks of Tibet to a gathering of mud huts in the jungles of South American, it can take many forms. It exists for twenty-four hours then vanishes once more, but for that single day it contains the greatest miracle a man could imagine: a doorway to Heaven. It is due to appear on the 21st September 1889 as a ghost town in the American Midwest. When it does there are many who hope to be there: traveling preacher **Obeisance Hicks** and his simple messiah, **a brain-damaged Civil War veteran**; **Henry** and **Harmonium Jones** and their **freak show pack of outlaws**; the **Brothers of Ruth** and their sponsor **Lord Forset** (inventor of the Forset Thunderpack and other incendiary modes of personal transport); finally, an **aging gunslinger** who lost his wings at the very beginning of creation and wants nothing more than to settle old scores. A weird western, a gun-toting, cigarrillo-chewing fantasy built from hangman’s rope and spent bullets. The West has never been wilder. **
