Motto: The war may be over, but the real battle for USA's soul is just beginning.
Horse Ranger is quite rare for a novel originally written in Finnish first to appear in a foreign language. The reason is artificial intelligence. AI and the abundant digital archives enabled me to write authentic historical fiction like a local.
The translation from Finnish to English was created "on the fly" with reliable results. However, the final check should be done by a native English-speaking author, my credit to the author Mitch White.
Don't read further if you want to avoid spoilers. Here they come.
When the guns fell silent and the Civil War ended at the battlefield of Palmito Ranch in May 1865, three human destinies collided in the dust of the dying war. In the tradition of classic Western storytelling, a bold new voice emerges-one that dares to turn the telescope around. Horse Ranger weaves together three unforgettable journeys across the harsh landscape of Reconstruction-era America. Love defies hatred, vengeance stalks honor, and a voiceless narrator holds up a cracked mirror to reveal the very heart of humanity.
Equine commentator - Light, Lance's exceptional warhorse, a kind of protagonist you never met in a Western novel before, is a remarkable narrator and perhaps the wisest fool in all of Texas. You've likely never encountered anyone quite like him before.Set adrift after the battle, Light embarks on adventures both thrilling and absurd, recounting his equine experiences with the wit of a frontier philosopher and the heart of a true companion. Like a satyr from ancient times, Light clings to that broken mirror and asks the most dangerous question: is it really you who's looking back through the polished glass?
Romantic figure - Lance Jacobs, a Confederate cavalry lieutenant, awakens from the war's final battle with a shattered leg and a soul in desperate need of healing. In the premises of the provisional hospital of Brownsville a spark ignites-an impossible love with Emma Watson, his Black nurse. Their uncontrollable passion blazes against the looming threat of racial hatred in the South.
The fastest gun - Matt Hudson, seventeen, bursting with dreams of gunslinger heroism, rides a thousand miles from Summerville South Carolina to the Brownsville, Texas borderlands. He is driven by a thirst for revenge that tests every part of his manhood. Deceived into believing Lance murdered his brother, Matt's journey becomes one of inevitable confrontation.
Combining classic romance, a coming-of-age tale, and a jubilant animal adventure in the spirit of Lassie Come Home, Horse Ranger proves that the themes of Western literature are far from exhausted. This is a new comet streaking across the Wild West sky, illuminating both the untamed frontier and the wild country of the human mind.
