So far, I have...The Flight of Michael McBride  Midori SnyderFleeing the machinations of the Faery court to the Texan cattle country, Eastern city boy Michael McBride discovers that he cannot outrun magic and is drawn in by the glamorous, ancient land that is as powerful as the enchantments he avoids. Devil's Tower by Mark Sumner The turning point of the Civil War had come when the bodies got up at Shiloh. Dangerous magic had risen on a flood of blood and violence, and it swept across the land, washing away all but the strong and the lucky. Unnatural powers had been loosed, and nothing would ever be the same again. Towns out west were dying faster than mayflies in June. To survive the perils of the frontier bandits, hexes, marauders, and conjurations, folks needed a strong sheriff. And any lawman who expected to survive had better have a fast gun and a talent for magic.Jake Bird wasn't aiming to pin any star to his chest. He had a talent, maybe a strong one. But before he could search out his future, he'd have to face his past--and stand up against the man who'd killed his father. That would mean a showdown against the most dangerous wielder of magic in all the West: General George Armstrong Custer!Devil's Engine by Mark Sumner The end of the Civil War and the rise of magical talents had brought unheard-of dangers to the West. Signers and scribblers and chatterers called up nightmare conjurations more dreadful than those that already roamed the unsettled land. Even a bullet-stopping sheriff with as much talent as Jake Bird was hard-pressed to keep Medicine Rock going when towns from Canada to Mexico were being abandoned.Unknown to the settlers, a greater calamity yet was stalking them. Using Buffalo Bill Cody as his agent, robber baron Jay Gould was laying tracks for America's first transcontinental railroad. Medicine Rock was chosen as the rail point where East would meet West. But the honor concealed catastrophe, for with his strange blue-green steel rails, Gould intended to rob the entire territory of its magic.Bullets would fly, blood would flow, and Buffalo Bill, Sheriff Jake, and the mysterious Rainmaker would need all their skills to defeat America's most powerful evil . . . Mad Amos by Alan Dean Foster (Story Collection)Strange things lurk up in the mountains and out in the plains and deserts of the West, but few are as unique as the giant mountain man named Amos Malone, the man some call Mad Amos, though not to his face. But when the world gets weird, there's no one who's better to have on your side...Is a renegade dragon harassing the men laying the rails of the great railroad? Are headless Indian spirits driving you from your land? Is that volcano threatening to destroy your settlement? Then Mad Amos is the man for you.Nadya: The Wolf Chronicles by Pat MurphyNadya embodies the 19th century idea of the Other: she is a woman, and she is an animal. Comfortable in her skin(s), a child of nature in many ways, she cannot fit into the artificial structure and mores of 19th century America. Although Nadya responds without artifice or duplicity to others (Rufus Jones, Elizabeth Metcalf), the priceless honesty she offers is undervalued and rejected. Nadya's search for a place in which she can safely be herself, woman and wolf, takes her across the plains, deserts, and mountains of western America. Fleeing to the utmost extremity of the continent, she stops and stands her ground on the Oregon shore. A Different Flesh by Harry TurtledoveArriving at an alternate American new world, its discovers encounter a primitive ape-men species, who, unlike the Indians, cannot conceptualize at the human level but can be trained to work and perform slave labor.
