Far Bright Star by Robert Olmstead
Set in the early 20th century, this gripping narrative follows Napoleon Childs, a seasoned cavalryman, as he embarks on a perilous mission across the unforgiving desert landscape of the American Southwest. Tasked with tracking down the elusive Pancho Villa, Napoleon's journey quickly turns into a harrowing fight for survival when his troop is ambushed, leaving him the sole survivor. Stranded and wounded, he grapples with the harsh elements and his own haunting memories, exploring themes of resilience, the brutality of war, and the quest for redemption in a world teetering on the brink of change.
