Sinopsis

In "The Pioneer Boys of the Ohio," St. George Rathborne crafts a compelling narrative that immerses readers in the adventurous spirit of early American settlers. Set against the backdrop of the Ohio River Valley, Rathborne employs a vivid and engaging writing style, blending historical facts with imaginative storytelling. Through the exploits of young pioneers, the novel reflects themes of courage, friendship, and the struggles of pioneering life in the burgeoning frontier. Its rich, descriptive prose not only captivates the reader but also offers a window into the socio-political dynamics of 19th-century America, emphasizing the importance of youth in the narrative of nation-building. St. George Rathborne, an esteemed author with a penchant for historical fiction, was deeply influenced by America's frontier history and the lives of early settlers. Born in the mid-19th century, Rathborne'Äôs own experiences in navigating the evolving landscape of America likely sparked his imagination for writing stories that celebrate the youthful spirit in facing adventure and adversity. His other works often reflect similar themes of exploration and resilience, showcasing his passion for American history. Recommended for readers seeking to explore the foundations of American identity through the lens of youth, "The Pioneer Boys of the Ohio" is a splendid read that combines rich historical context with the excitement of adventure. This book appeals to both young readers and adults alike, making it a delightful addition to any historical fiction enthusiast's collection.

    In America, the amount of money people earn for doing the same job isn't always equal.

    A lot of questions ran through my head as I desperately clung to the roof of a magic train crossing over a gaping canyon. Like: How did I get here? What could I have done to avoid this fate? And, did I remember to shave my underarms before coming on this quest?But even after taking on a witch in a gingerbread house, bloodthirsty actors, and a whole mess of magic hunters and other fairytale shenanigans, the biggest, most pressing question pulsing through my brain as my fingers started to slip and my enemy bore down on me was this:Could I really trust the person whose life I’d ruined to keep me from falling?With antagonists closing in, inner demons threatening to consume me, and vivid nightmares chewing up my soul every time I shut my eyes, I was running out of options.I knew the moment to decide whether or not I could truly trust any of my friends was fast approaching. But my head and heart were stuck. For just like the precarious position I now found myself in, the pain of holding onto the path I’d chosen thus far was outmatched only by the worry I had over (gulp) letting it go . . .READERS LOVE CRISANTA KNIGHT:“If you like reading books full of action, magic and a strong heroine, this is the one for you.” - Crazy Cat Books"Trust, self-discovery and friendship were definitely the defining factors of this novel, with a great emphasis on trust.” The Unicorn Reader“I love this story; it brings out the inner princess in me.” One More Chapter Blog“The worldbuilding continues to be amazing.” – Pages Full of StarsTHE CRISANTA KNIGHT SERIES:Book 1 - Protagonist BoundBook 2 - The Severance GameBook 3 - Inherent FateBook 4 - The Liar, The Witch, & The WormholeBook 5 - To Death & BackBook 6 - The Lost KingBook 7 - Into The GrayBook 8 - Midnight LawBook 9 - Eternity's End
