Gallant Nonsense
An Irish cavalryman, meddling faeries, a death goddess with a grudge, a genocidal General with gorgeous hair, and the whole damned American frontier to ride across.
Meet Myles Keogh (1840-1876) - a real, historical, dashing charmer who spent his life trying to be the grand hero of his own epic story and ended up less famous than his horse. Gallant Nonsense is a wry, tall-tale-talking historical fantasy that spins the magic of Celtic mythological forces around the Civil War and the American West. Everyone in it was real, and everything in it happened (except the things that didn't.) Saddle the faeries are lying, the goddess is scheming, and the Cavalry is riding headlong into disaster at a Montana creek called the Little Bighorn, where destiny is waiting to see what this gallant fool is actually made of.

This book has it all, and is a really fun combination of historical fiction mixed with a little bit of mysticism.
This book draws you in from the start, and covers so many themes, including, but not limited to bravery, war, ethical dilemmas, love and so much more. I thought it was extremely well written, and I highly recommend you read it. It was well researched and gives important perspective to many historical events.
