Cowboys and dinosaurs. Where the western world had saurian denizens as normal as six-shooters. The 19th century comes alive with an adventure of unlikely friendships and the battle against dinosaur cruelty and colonial skirmishes. Follow the trio: A shrewd businessman whose love comes unrequited, a devoted dino caretaker who refuses to tame her spirit, and a relentless hunter too reckless for his own good. Amidst the backdrop of daring shootouts, classic high-stakes train heists, and dinosaur hunting, they race against time to stop all-out war. ═══════ 𝙿𝚁𝙴𝚅𝙸𝙴𝚆 Randall's scowl deepened. "It seems we differ in our understanding of what constitutes cruelty to God's creatures. I have no desire to subjugate nature through force when harmony can be cultivated through ethical practices. Our goal is to empower mankind through merit, not shows of dominance." Shaw's smile tightened slightly at the rebuke. "You paint me as some brutal slavedriver. Where does your morality stand with the hadrosaurs that pull our carriages? The Centrosaurus' ploughing your fields without pay or vacation, helpless before any whip or spur? Even the natives have already made use of Pachies (Pachycephalosaurus) to safeguard their land. A few scars mean little to creatures that dedicate their lives to man's service. These dinosaurs depend utterly on humans for survival. We could shoot them all and make this a man's world when we wanted. Oh, that's right! We did." ═══════ 𝙰𝙲𝙷𝙸𝙴𝚅𝙴𝙼𝙴𝙽𝚃𝚂 x12🏆 Contests awarded x1⭐ FEATURED on @ReshapeIt (formerly @SpeculativeFiction) ═══════ 𝙷𝙸𝙶𝙷𝙴𝚂𝚃 𝚁𝙰𝙽𝙺𝚂 #1 | Old West (2025) #1 | 19th Century (2025) #1 | 1880 (2023-2024) #1 | Animal Cruelty (2023-2025) #1 | English Literature (2023-2025) #1 | Speculative Fiction (2023) ═══════ Total Words: 92,400+ [5 July 2023 - 6 Oct 2024]
