Billy Todd has always been different. Most people called him odd, and those were the nice people. Though he was born with a learning disability, Billy's parents never allowed him to consider himself disabled. Raised to be self-sufficient, Billy might not be as smart as some, but he was a lot smarter than people realized.

Story
Elliot Richardson thought he’d lost everything. He’d come home from deployment to find his wife cheating on him, his sons strangers and his life in tatters. Driving away, unsure where he was going, he fell through an interdimensional rift and found himself in a very different world, a city of magic and mystery and dangers beyond his comprehension, a land spinning out of control. Innovations from the distant west unsettle the monarchy and challenge the position of the aristocrats and warlords who hold the kingdom in their grasp.

Jin Rou wanted to be a cultivator. A man powerful enough to defy the heavens. A master of martial arts. A lord of spiritual power. Unfortunately for him, he died, and now I’m stuck in his body. Arrogant Masters? Heavenly Tribulations? All that violence and bloodshed? Yeah, no thanks. I’m getting out of here. Farm life sounds pretty great. Tilling a field by hand is fun when you’ve got the strength of ten men—though maybe I shouldn’t have fed those Spirit Herbs to my pet rooster.

All of this was because of the dragon stone necklace I scavenged from that dead mage. I knew it was magic when I saw it. Well, it was and it wasn’t. Dragon stone, they call it, but what it actually is, is a dragon’s egg. When I touched it, I felt the need to put it around my neck for safekeeping. When I did, the necklace embedded itself inside my skin, making me the new dragon’s envoy. It has since been my duty to protect the egg until she’s ready to hatch. How do I know the egg is a she? Easy, she talks to me and is helping me to bring out my natural magic talents.

A "prehistorical-fiction" novel about a boy prodigy in a primitive caveman society. First he reduces a dislocation of his own finger, then works out how to "set bones" for others who’re injured. Like Jean Auel's Ayla, he discovers other primitive technologies, including trapping, smoking meat, and the domestication of a wolf. His mastery of these skills gradually elevates his previously despised and downtrodden position in their society - until he becomes highly respected and admired. And, falls in love with the girl he didn’t dream could love him back....

Publisher's summary
Paul McAllister, an aging military retiree, wants nothing more at this point in his life than to put the wars, cancer, and death of his wife behind him as he numbly glides into his final years doing the only thing he still enjoys – selling weapons and his services as a gunsmith on the gun show circuit of the American southwest.
Driving down the road in the Mesilla Valley of southern New Mexico, sandwiched in the few hundred yards between the Robledo Mountains to the West and the Rio Grande to the East, Paul loses consciousness while returning home from a gun show. An hour later, he regains consciousness finding himself swept away on the tides of time.
Is he really in the past? Is he dreaming? Is he in the midst of a psychotic episode? So begins his journey of discovery. Along the way, he battles Apache, Comanche, and Navajo warriors, fights bushwackers, discovers his roots, mines gold, finds love and friendship, and makes powerful enemies, all while establishing a home in the Mesilla Valley on the banks of the Rio Grande.

Story
In the early 1870's, the young state of Texas was struggling to survive. Its vast, undeveloped land of over 260 thousand square miles became a haven for the lawless. Murderers, rustlers and renegade bands of hostile Indians and Comanchero roamed the vast wastelands of west Texas with only a narrow river separating them from the sanctuary of Mexico. One group of dedicated lawmen stood between this element and the law-abiding citizenry - the Texas Rangers. This is the story of one of those men.

Twenty-two years old Cole Morgan struggled after a career ending football injury and then the tragic loss of his parents in the winter of 1937. He felt like a man with no destination... running from lost opportunities and memories better left alone. Maybe it was for this reason he accepted the offer of a near stranger to use his education and backcountry skills to work on the Greybull, one of the largest ranches in Wyoming. With little fanfare he packed all his worldly possessions in his beloved truck and headed for the small town of Meeteetsee.

Johnny Shooter was sentenced to hang at noon. But Judge Isaac Parker, widely known as the "Hanging Judge", made Johnny an offer he couldn't refuse. The judge made him a Deputy United State Marshal, then sent his new deputy after the worst-of-the-worst outlaws the Indian territory had to offer, with the orders not to burden the court by bringing them back for trial. Now, rumor has it that whenever outlaws gather around a campfire, the word is: "The only thing worse than standing before the Hanging Judge is hearing that Johnny Shooter is on your trail!"

I like the story but
I did like the story but I did not care for the narrator of the book. I've read the book already and was looking forward to the audible version of Robledo Mountain. I just couldn't get into the audio version like I did the written version. Maybe the narrator will improve in the next title in the series. P C Allen does pretty good for his first novel and yes there are mistakes. What I like about him is that the next book is better. Mr. Allen improves his writing skills with each book. I never though about visiting New Mexico but after reading the series I would like to visit New Mexico now. It seems to be a beautiful part of the country.

the book is a great read and pretty well written the narrator on the other hand is only ok with male voices and the narration is stilted at best the real problem is the female voices the're just BAD as in they sound like 60yo smokers with a cold

Great Western
Great read with just enough science to make it plausible. Would recommend to my friends.

Really really liked reading the story but...
I had to stop listening. The story is great. The narrators voice is fantastic. just not together. personally I found the narrator disturbing when he tried to do a woman's voice. it was...disturbing...unsettling... Maybe it was just me but I am going to have to say no on the Audible version. Yikes.

Finally it’s on Audible
This is the first of the series and I have been waiting for it. I have enjoyed the story and it gives a great alternative history of Southern New Mexico. It’s one the best of this genre. I hope that the rest of the series will be out in audible soon.

Skip this Author
Well, another author that I am one and done with.
I’ll give him 3 stars on story idea and then 1 start for everything else.
I had high hopes for the book when I started but as soon as the author started giving us all the background of the main character as a list of accomplishments during a dream, I knew it would be hard to finish the book.
The worst part is the complete lack of character development. There is Zero, Zilch, None for the main love interest. Here is what we know about her. Her parents are dead, she has read Don Quote and she works in her adopted parents’ restaurant and has a great smile, that’s it.
The characters all think and act with 20th century values and concepts not realistic.
Most books of this genre send someone back in time with just their knowledge (ok maybe not Harry Turtledove). Our main character is sent back with an RV and a trailer with enough modern weapons for an army every type of tool that he will need and everything he needs to charge its batteries with either solar or water. Oh and of course this info is given to us in a list. I think the author went back and revised the list as he discovered something the main character might need.
No idea why this book was getting 4 and 5 stars on Goodreads. One reader even said, “The plot twists and turns to keep the reader from putting it down” SPOILER ALERT – There are no plot twist or turns, its is extremely straight forward and repetitive. My advice is to skip this author and if you want a good alternate history book read Destiny’s Crucible series by Olan Thorensen.
