Now an e-book

Grab your bear can or camp chair, kick your feet up and chew the fat about anything Sierra Nevada related that doesn't quite fit in any of the other forums. Within reason, (and the HST rules and guidelines) this is also an anything goes forum. Tell stories, discuss wilderness issues, music, or whatever else the High Sierra stirs up in your mind.

Now an e-book

Post by balzaccom »

For those of you who don't want to carry around paper and ink...

The first in my series of mysteries set in the Sierra Nevada is now available as an e-book on Amazon:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09Q4 ... bl_vppi_i3

And the next mystery in the series, “Bones of the Earth” should go to print this month. These books are all set in the Emigrant Wilderness, and our hero is a ranger at the Summit Ranger Station in the Stanislaus National Forest. While my wine marketing books have won international awards, these are also getting some good reviews:

"Clever and captivating. Wagner pulls readers along on a trail through the mountains, keenly observing a world in which the greatest threat, of course, is humans... An excellent excursion for armchair mountaineers."
-- Sasha Paulsen, The Napa Register

Top Fifteen Adventure Books to Read:
"With Danger: Falling Rocks, Paul Wagner offers a captivating and witty tale of trouble in the wilderness that's ideal for the armchair mountaineers and keen hikers among us. One of our top fifteen outdoor reads!"
-- Julien Heron, Outdoors Generations

“Danger: Falling Rocks” gives us a vibrant feel of the high Sierra, a charming new mystery hero, and an engaging, fast-moving mystery written with energy and a nice touch of wit. Paul Wagner’s love of the outdoors and his experience hiking and camping takes readers right into the mountains. The zippy writing keeps the story moving along the Sierra trails, through the lineup of interesting, quirky characters, and down the winding mystery path until the satisfying end. It’s a great summer read, whether or not you can find your way into the wilderness.”
-- Rick Kushman, best-selling NY Times author and co-host of Bottle Talk from Cap Radio in Sacramento

"It is an enjoyable read and reflects a lifestyle that not many people are blessed to lead. As a practitioner of this way of life and a pursuer of wilderness settings, this reading has my seal of approval. "
-- Chip Morrill, ex-US Forest Service Wilderness Ranger and White Water Guide

Nicely done. Too bad I don't read anymore, except for tech manuals on how to fix stuff. Got an E120 and an 870 to prep for mowing season.
Almost time to put up the carport, but that is ladder and concrete work as well once the weather breaks a bit and the waters dissipate.

Still Paul, a nice accomplishment.
