Davy Crockett #5
Blood Rage
No pioneer knew the wilderness like the legendary Davy Crockett. His curiosity and wanderlust always kept him exploring, seeking new lands and new adventure. But sometimes his curiosity led Davy and his old friend Flavius into more trouble than they expected. When Davy saw the tracks of a solitary wagon heading off into the uncharted plains, he just had to follow them to make sure the travelers knew what they were in for. But the brave frontiersman didn't know that the trail would lead him straight into a battle with savage Pawnee warriors out for blood.
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 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.

For the second book in a row, Davy Crockett and his sidekick Flavius Harris are canoeing down the Mississippi towards St. Louis, only to have their trip suddenly interrupted.
This time, Davy spots the tracks of a single wagon heading west towards the prairie. In the early 19th Century, this is equivalent to committing suicide. Davy's Chronic Hero Syndrome kicks in and he (along with a reluctant Flavius) tracks down the wagon.
The wagon is carrying a widow, her young daughter and the man she now wants to marry. They are being pursued by the widow's stepfather--an arrogant, wealthy man who wants to control her life. Soon, Davy finds himself battling the stepfather's ruthless minions to protect the family.
Battles, escapes and rescues follow in quick succession, with Davy at one point finding himself tied to a log and set adrift on the Mississippi. It's another fun and fast-paced entry in the series, with a villain so thoroughly loathsome that you are fervently hoping he gets killed two paragraphs after you meet him.
