Description

Come join us on Saturday May 6th from 11 a.m. – 1 p.m. at Bear Book Market in beautiful Dahlonega, GA for a meet and greet with award-winning author and Western historian Mark Warren. We are celebrating his new releases, "A Tale Twice Told," and "A Last Serenade for Billy Bonney." Mark was a recipient of a 2022 Georgia Author of the Year for his book "Song of the Horseman" (Finalist, Literary Fiction) and recently received two nominations for the 2023 Georgia Author of the Year Awards for his books "A Tale Twice Told," and "The Westering Trail Travesties." "A Tale Twice Told" (released in December) is Mark’s first published young adult novel. Synopsis: Robert Asherwood is a loner at an elite boarding school. Though a gifted student, he is first and foremost an archer. When a visiting teacher arrives from England, she tries to convince Robert of his part in a remarkable story of reincarnation. "A Last Serenade for Billy Bonney" (just released) is a work of historical fiction on the life of our most famous American outlaw, "Billy the Kid." To the senorita’s of New Mexico, he was a charmer and a dancer . . . to the downtrodden Hispanic farmers, a paladin . . . to Anglo ranchers, a thief or a warm-hearted savior . . . to the law, a stone cold killer. But to one newspaper reporter, Billy the Kid was as noble as the landscape through which he rode. Praise for Mark Warren: “Warren’s exceptional gift of creative writing has gotten inside this legendary outlaw.” ~ Denise F. McAllister, True West Magazine “A page-turner of a book.” ~ Roy B. Young, "Chasing Billy the Kid" “Rich with conflict, wistfulness, and an appropriate sense of foreboding.” ~ James B. Mills, "Billy the Kid, El Bandido Simpatico" "The book is compelling, strongly paced, and compassionate, a dramatic ode to a human symbol of the West." ~ The Historical Novel Society
