Advance Praise for This Dark and Bloody Ground:
“As if you are there, the reader experiences the dangers that lurk around every corner: illnesses, Indians, natural elements, as well as the joys and sorrows that the characters, themselves, face. This is a must-read for young and old as tales of adventure know no boundaries.” —Pamela Horner Author of The Long Road Home
“Lori Roberts' newest novel is not only authentic and sensory-rich but engrossing and edgy! This read isn’t a quiet canoe ride, but a trek filled with danger, depth, and heart.” —C.K. Mallick, author of Valthea: I Read People and Thomasina: The Twin.
Coming November 1st, 2019: Broomstraw Ridge: A Novel by Betsy Reeder
Advance Praise for Broomstraw Ridge:
“In a sprawling post-Civil War sequel to Madam’s Creek, Broomstraw Ridge will transport you to the mountains of southern West Virginia where you will stand shoulder to shoulder with the Lilly family as they marry, raise children, and bury kin—along with their long-held secrets. Reeder shows her talent for weaving the perfect details to ground a story firmly in place and time.” —Donna Meredith, Associate editor of Southern Literary Review and author of The Glass Madonna
“The mountains of southern West Virginia, by their rugged nature, are resistant to change. They breed a certain rough-hewn individualism amongst the people who still cling to the beautiful mountain farms. . . . Betsy Reeder takes us back in time, as we live with, laugh and cry with, people who feel like they must have been the ancestors of those who still know the ways of the hills.” —Jon Averill, writer/producer of Averell’s Raiders & the 35th Star and Passing Thru Sandstone
