The Astounding, Incredible, Unbelievable, Traveling Patent Medicine Show

A young man wakes up in a cave with no memory of who he is. He stumbles on an alien ship and what he believes could be his destiny. Join him as he leaves Earth to explore the stars and to see what the future holds for him.

This is a Western story in two parts. The Palmer Ranch with Randy and Sheila on the East end of the valley, and the Ferris Ranch with Dave and Teresa on the West end with the town of Ferris in the center. The first part will stand alone. The second part has the same stand alone quality. It tells the story of the long valley where Ferris Town draws characters from both. Some characters speak in dialect. Ignore the spelling. Sound these words out to get the meaning.

The aftermath of the previous story.

An Air Transport Auxiliary Story
The grandson of a ferry pilot who died in the second world war tells of his experience following the grandfather he never knew into the air. There's a bit of romance, too, but no explicit sex (sorry).

A Ley Line Witch Story
When raiders, the horse barbarians,attack their village, Nikshith fled with most of the other villagers. At 75, he soon had trouble keeping up with the younger people. He laid an ambush for the attackers and killed two of them before they killed him. An hour or so later, he came back to life, his wounds healed. This was the beginning of a long, long journey for him. He would learn things and do things that he had never imagined existed until he finally became something he never realized he was.

This began as a story within a story and took on its own life. At the end of the first book, I realized my muse had more. The method of writing in which perspective is switched from male to female by chapter is continued. That has been fun and occasionally probably more of a challenge than my skills can handle. It's an exploration of a mature couple as they go through life. It also gives me a chance to write about radio which I enjoy doing as well as writing about. RG

Stories in the Frank's Post-Apoc World Universe
It's a trip out west! New people are met. Some romance will occur. Good people will be happy. Good people will suffer. Bad people will suffer. Some questions will be answered. Janice takes a stronger leadership role in exploration. The Cook-Thomas-Sullivan family experiences a lot of ups and downs. If you haven't read the series and hope for hot sex, you will be disappointed. There is a lot of talk but NO action on "screen."

Book 1 is a mandatory read before starting this one.

Dave's skill in foreplay wins over many of the women. Several start a new hobby with an appealing instructor.
