The Phantom Herd

The Phantom Herd follows the Flying U boys as they try to put a Western on film in New Mexico, chasing a herd that must exist for the camera if it is to exist at all. Ranch craft collides with the infant picture business, and Bower has great fun with both. Dust, light, and make-believe become a kind of round-up.

This special edition has been created with accessibility in mind. It features a fully adjustable coloured overlay system designed to support readers with Irlen Syndrome, dyslexia, or visual stress. By reducing visual strain and allowing each reader to customise their experience, this edition makes Bower’s picture-minded narrative more comfortable and enjoyable to read.

Rediscover the ranch craft and early movie magic of The Phantom Herd in a format thoughtfully crafted to be more inclusive for all readers.
