Przygodowa
Ewa Kowalska
Czy odważysz się stawić czoło Stroicielom? Są ludzie doskonali. Tak rozwinięci, że słyszą każdą naszą myśl. Tak potężni, że nie potrzebują broni, by zapewnić sobie bezpieczeństwo. Nikt z nas, zwykłych ludzi, nie ma pojęcia o ich istnieniu, choć są tuż obok. W dzień i w nocy. Od tysięcy lat panują nad umysłami, pozwalając nam widzieć, słyszeć i pojmować tylko tyle, ile im wygodnie. Tworzą z nas pełzaki prymitywną, ograniczoną formę bytu. Tylko skończony głupiec chciałby wejść im w drogę, ośmielił się pokrzyżować plany, próbował przechytrzyć. Chyba że... nie ma innego wyjścia, gdyż tylko w ten sposób może uratować kogoś, kto stał się dla niego ważniejszy niż on sam, i cały, kołyszący się w takt fałszywej melodii, świat. Kędziora, niepokornego nastolatka, i dziewięcioletnią Asper łączy dramatyczne wydarzenie z przeszłości. Kędzior próbuje żyć dalej, jednak dziewczynka nie potrafi zapomnieć. Prosi chłopaka, by zawiózł ją w to samo miejsce do Martwego Lasu. Kędzior spełnia jej prośbę, po czym odjeżdża, jednak gnany wyrzutami sumienia wraca. I od tej chwili nie może już się wycofać. Uwikłany w intrygę potężnych, wysoko rozwiniętych ludzi, by przeżyć, zmuszony jest brać udział w ich grze.
Max Brand

Three western stories about men who appear to be lacking the intelligence and skills to survive on the frontier but are able to achieve success where others had failed. Sun and Sand is the story of a youth known only as Jigger. It is his misfortune to buy a key chain from a pawnbroker that has on it a key to a post office box. In that box, Jigger finds a map to a notorious outlaws cache, buried in a fierce desert region; however, Jigger is not the only one seeking this treasure...
Zane Grey
When the train pulls into Wagontongue, the reader becomes Trueman Rock, returning to town after killing a man six years earlier. Now he returns to find trouble again, but this time his trouble is caused by love. Rock has fallen in love with Ash Prestons woman, Thiry, and no man in the valley will let him get away with this. But Rock has faced harder men for lesser prizes, and he is willing to pay any price to win Thirys love. As with Romeo and Juliet, this undying love is depicted in the novel with shining sincerity. Sunset Pass stands as a powerful story of love, courage and loyalty. It shows how we must never follow with blind faith, how we must hold dear the memory of those we love, and how strong and enduring true love really is.

Robert E. Howard
One moment the glade lay empty; the next a man poised tensely at the edge of the bushes. No sound warned the red squirrels of his coming, but the birds that flitted about in the sunlight took sudden fright at the apparition and rose in a clamoring swarm. The man scowled and glanced quickly back the way he had come, fearing the bird-flight might have betrayed his presence. Then he started across the glade, placing his feet with caution. Tall and muscular of frame, he moved with the supple ease of a panther.
