The Rising Storm / Pure of Heart
(2020)(A book in the Wilderness Omnibus series)
An omnibus of novels by David Thompson
The Rising Storm
Each year more and more people are making their way west, encroaching the land known as the Wilderness. Pioneer and mountain man Nate King values his privacy – it’s one of the main reasons he recently moved with his family to an even more isolated part of the vast Rocky Mountains.
Nate’s good friends Simon and Felicity Ward have also felt the call of the wilderness; listening to the words of Nate King – a man highly regarded as Jim Bridger and Kit Carson and deeply love the valley where they’ve built their homestead.
Now a ruthless Easterner has laid claim to hundreds of square miles as his private hunting preserve, including the Wards’ land. When Stalking Coyote—Zach King—hears of this his father’s words ring out in his head: a King never gives up, never says die, never lets hardship stop us. Like his father, Zach is a man of honor through and through, he won’t leave his friends to fight alone—even if it costs him his life!
Pure of Heart
Nate King likes to think he’s taught his family everything they need to know about living in the wilds of the Rocky Mountains. And now they’re about to be put to the test. What was supposed to be a fun trip up to the high country quickly turns into a desperate struggle just to survive. From rattlesnakes to a flash flood, Mother Nature has unleashed a bitter arsenal. But the worst threat of all comes from mankind as four vicious murderers stalk the forest, ready to finish off anyone left alive.
David L. Robbins was born on Independence Day 1950. He has written more than three hundred books under his own name and many pen names, among them: David Thompson, Jake McMasters, Jon Sharpe, Don Pendleton, Franklin W. Dixon, Ralph Compton, Dean L. McElwain, J.D. Cameron and John Killdeer.
Robbins was raised in Pennsylvania. When he was seventeen he enlisted in the United States Air Force and eventually rose to the rank of sergeant. After his honorable discharge he attended college and went into broadcasting, working as an announcer and engineer (and later as a program director) at various radio stations. Later still he entered law enforcement and then took to writing full-time.
At one time or another Robbins has lived in Pennsylvania, Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Montana, Colorado and the Pacific Northwest. He spent a year and a half in Europe, traveling through France, Italy, Greece and Germany. He lived for more than a year in Turkey.
Today he is best known for two current long-running series - Wilderness, the generational saga of a Mountain Man and his Shoshone wife - and Endworld is a science fiction series under his own name started in 1986. Among his many other books, Piccadilly Publishing is pleased to be reissuing ebook editions of Wilderness, Davy Crockett and, of course, White Apache.
