Two of a Kind

6 pp · Animal, Western-Frontier

A legendary mustang and a principled mustanger find themselves on a collision course—but when the stranger learns that Luke Blear hunts wild horses using brutal creasing tactics, he makes it his mission to protect Black Fury from capture. Over the following weeks, the two men pursue the magnificent stallion across the range in a battle of wits and determination that tests their very different codes of the frontier.

Capture

6 pp · Animal, Western-Frontier

Black Fury, the magnificent wild stallion of the plains, has one weakness—his bond with Little Hawk, the son of Chief Red Feather—and when unscrupulous horse trader Sam Baxter learns of it, he hatches a scheme to use the boy to capture the prized animal. Little Hawk is taken captive and forced to summon Black Fury, but the intelligent horse senses the danger and must decide whether to answer his young friend's call. As tensions escalate in the hills, the great black charger proves that no rope or gun is stronger than the connection between horse and boy.

Dew Tell!

1 pp · Western-Frontier

When a boastful visitor from California won't stop bragging about his home state's supposedly rain-free climate, Pattie decides to deflate his ego with a tall tale of her own. Her quick-witted comeback puts the talkative stranger in his place in this lighthearted frontier showdown.

The Glass Trail

6 pp · Animal, Western-Frontier

Sheriff Tom Langer finds Black Fury injured with broken glass embedded in his hooves—likely scattered by the outlaw Bart Arnold and his gang—and nurses the wild horse back to health. When Arnold later uses the same glass trap to lame the sheriff's own mount, Black Fury repays the favor by letting Langer ride him to catch the fleeing bandit. A tale of gratitude and unexpected partnership on the frontier, where even the wildest horse knows a friend.

Pardners!

6 pp · Western-Frontier

Two down-on-their-luck prospectors join forces to strike it rich in the hills, only to discover a fortune in gold that tests the very partnership they've built. When greed whispers louder than loyalty, "Pardners!" reveals what a man will do when wealth hangs in the balance—and whether any friendship can survive the temptation of easy riches.
