Publisher Description

In 1866, only men uprooted by war had reason to ride into Tubacca, Arizona, a nondescript town as shattered and anonymous as the veterans drifting through it. So when Drew Rennie, newly discharged from Forrest's Confederate scouts, arrived leading everything he owned behind him-his thoroughbred stud Shiloh, a mare about to foal, and a mule-he knew his business would not be questioned. To anyone in Tubacca there could be only one extraordinary thing about Drew, and that he could not reveal: his name, Rennie. Drew had come west from Kentucky to find a father he had thought dead until the year before. Kinship with a man like Hunt Rennie, however-the legendary . . .

Interestin Wester by the Grand Dam of SciFi

I've always been a fan of Andre Norton. I usually read her science fiction and fantasy. Of her westerns, I've read Stand To Horse a long time ago. This is the second book in her Rebel series. I have not yet read the first.

Drew Rennie is a Civil War veteran. He served under Nathan Bedford Forest. Drew came west from Kentucky in search of a father he had thought dead. Using the name alias Drew Kerby, he goes to work as a hand for Hunt Rennie, his father. He wishes to see if he can claim kinship to his father before revealing his true identity. If not, he plans to move to California. Then his identity papers are stolen, and he is accused of stealing his horses.

The story is an interesting one. Not the pace I usually like, but a fun read.

Not her usual fare

I enjoyed this departure from her usual science fiction.

Great read

So many writers try a different genre and fail. Not sure if Norton started with historical/western novels with a touch of Indian and horse lore and switched to SiFi, but most of his books are worth re-reading. Been traveling in a motor home (actually "living in one") for the past few years, and his books have offered a varied means of escapism.
