Alright y'all, if the Cowboah says it's a nice book then it must be so.
Roger's personality and his performance in RDR2 was the inspiration for one of the characters in the novel, a bloke by the name of... Roger Mercer.
The author of the book claims that Roger Mercer is one of the most liked characters in this book by the people who have read it, and when you base your character's personality on fine human being like Roger Clark, well, what's not to like?? 😉
Overview:
lden Aubrey has always been a better actor than an outlaw, serving as a decoy for the infamous Texas gang leader, Julian Crisp. When an impulse decision causes a routine heist to go awry, Alden must choose between the character he has portrayed for so long and his most genuine self.
What some readers are saying about this book:
'A Better Man' is a page-turning, plot-twisting book I seriously could not put down. At the heart of this historical Western set in Texas is a story of redemption that came through desperation and manipulation. The characters are amazingly written with depth, richness, and believability. Just when I thought I'd figured out the plot and the characters, unexpected twists and surprises emerged. I've read it twice and found clues I'd missed the first time. I love this book! – A. Cossota
Taking place in a North Texas town at the dawn of the 20th century, to say that A Better Man is a tale of romance and mystery would be a disservice. Merchant guides the reader on the journey as the two protagonists discover their developing feelings in the sometimes harsh reality of post-Civil War Texas. The author uses prose as an artist uses paint to give depth and character to the landscape, people, and drama being portrayed. The reader is drawn into the story by the descriptive details, allowing for a clear mental picture as the mystery of the Disciples gang is slowly revealed. If you love a Michner-esque story with wonderful, descriptive scenery or are a fan of classic romances (think Casablanca), then 'A Better Man' is the book for you. – A. Montiel
An excellent novel dealing with the history of the adventurous American West! In 'A Better Man', Merchant has highlighted each character by incorporating their individualized backgrounds as it applies accurately to the time period and location as each chapter introduces new information that expands the reader's excitement. – M. Weber
A Better Man is available in paperback and hardcover, no word yet on an audiobook or Ebook version, but if the audiobook is not recorded by Roger I will revolt.
You can find this book wherever books are sold. Walmart, Amazon, Target, Barnes & Noble, Books-a-Million, etc., just to name a few.

Incoherent review of ‘The Power of the Dog’ by Thomas Savage incoming
In short: 5 stars, lost my entire mind about this.
In long:
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Seriously though; from a writing perspective? Incredible. So vivid. I don’t know what sagebrush smells like but I sure felt like I did. Maybe my experience on cattle stations and farms added to this, but every inch of this was so alive. From the narrow bedroom George and Phil have always shared, to the dim barn, to the sweeping plains. The heartbreak and dread prowl around you throughout the entire book, and stare out at you between Savage’s beautiful descriptions and character work. It had me hooked from the first vivid line.
It’s definitely a product of its time as far as politics and sensibilities go, and I would not recommend it if you want a book just about Gay Cowboys™️, because it’s not about that. The cowboy is gay yes, but the story is infinitely more complex than that. Otherwise, I have no complaints except that is wish I could have lingered longer.

(I worked so hard on that^ book trailer, please watch it, lol.)
This Kickstarter will ship to anywhere in the world, but I know shipping costs are going to be too steep for some, so there is an ebook version available as well!
The other tiers include an exclusive hardback edition that will ONLY be available through this Kickstarter, a paperback version, and a few different book boxes with goodies like stickers, a map, and prints of some of the illustrations from the book!
Back the project here!
(Signal boosts would really be appreciated as well. If this Kickstarter does well, it'll help me go back to college for wildland fire management this fall without taking out as many new loans!)

"I did get this, though, on the way." He holds up a radio. "Waterproof." "No shhuchh thing," she drips. "Well, water-resistant," he says, dropping it in. The water gushes up to catch it. "I'll be back when I can to change the batteries." "Thankshhhep. You'rre a good frriend."
Wayward Son, Chapter 40, Rainbow Rowell.
I love Blue's dialogue tag.
And I hope that that radio survived in the water.

“Aftermath” 🎨 2024 (Arcane AU) They had turned on him. It was a mutiny. Betrayal. After having taken an outcast orphan under his wing, the band of outlaws that rode by Silco’s side saw it fit to relieve him of his command. She was clouding his ever narrowing vision. Making him soft. Weak.
They couldnt stand to botch another robbery. Not with the full force of the law on their tail.
So they aimed to kill Silco, and his hazard of a protégé. All the while making it pointedly clear that they had never respected him as much as their previous leader, Vander.
Little Powder, aka Gun Powder, watched in horror as the gang roughed him up, repeatedly questioning him as to her whereabouts. He said nothing. And when it became clear that they were going to do him in… she lit the fuse.
She had always pursued combustible weapons in effort to defend herself.
Now she would use that creative force to defend Silco. If only he had been as spry as he used to be- then he would have cleared the blast. But-it was a blast that was so much larger than Powder had anticipated.
The few remaining gang members had run off, and the coast was clear save for the burning barn debris and smoldering ruins.
And Silco, lying there on the dusty ground, still and motionless.
Against the flickering firelight she couldn’t make out if he was breathing or not, and likewise through her screams and cries could not hear it.
She stayed for what seemed an eternity, but nothing changed. The fire raged on, and soon there were faint sounds of approaching lawmen. Judging by the growing thunder, there were many.
She panicked and ran. Leaving Silco behind.
She ran until she couldn’t anymore. She managed to stow away onto boxcar- on a train that was going, well- who knew. She sat there wondering what her future would bring…
not knowing Silco was still alive.
