Listen to a sample Listen to a sample
Edwin Shrake writes fascinating, exquisitely detailed novels of historical fiction. Named "one of the ten best books of 2000" by the Los Angeles Times, The Borderland is a sweeping, action-packed saga of the great Texas Republic. Doc Swift—half Cherokee, half Irish, part medical doctor, part healer—seeks the supernatural creature who guards the treasures and wisdom of his tribal ancestors. But first he needs to find the German settler named Gruber who had reportedly encountered the beast deep in the lands of Comancheria. When Doc finds Gruber in newly-established Austin, Doc hears the story of a doomed trading expedition, treacherous Comanches, and the mythical ape-man. With compelling narration by George Guidall, The Borderland takes listeners on an adventure deep into the volatile Texas hill country, where only the most cunning and ruthless survive.
