TOM SHARP: The Man and the Legend (A Novel) is a fast-paced, hard-hitting, and carefully-woven mixture of fact and fiction about a young wounded Confederate soldier from Marion County, Missouri, who became a famous and respected Westerner.Discharged from his enlistment, Tom Sharp joined a wagon train and traveled west. He aimed to earn his fortune, homestead a ranch, marry Katherine Durrett, the lovely young lady he was betrothed to, and start a family. On his dangerous and exciting quest, Sharp encountered renegades, Indians, and slavers--as well as frontiersmen who taught him how to survive in the mountains and on the plains.Although many of the tales are based on actual events and adventures that Tom Sharp experienced, author Charlie Steel engages his craft as a master storyteller and embellishes and adds situations to honor the accomplishments and integrity of this great man from Colorado.Tom Sharp's life, embellished or not, is a story that needs to be told.

Charlie Steel's THE SOUL GATHERERS: Thirteen Western Tales is a collection of thirteen fictitious tales dealing with one of the most fascinating, popular, and evil literary adversaries in history. The Devil-also known by other names, including Satan, Lucifer, and Prince of Darkness. The devil takes center stage in each of Steel's well-crafted short stories with the goal of claiming the soul of someone flirting with the dark side of life. Satan, the ultimate sales rep, usually arrives on the scene preceded by a flourish of roaring winds, explosive thunder, intense heat, and the acrid smell of sulfur. But, as you'll see in these fast-moving tales, the Prince of Darkness is not without his own powerful adversaries. And, we learn that with each soul he loses, his power weakens. Charlie Steel has written a package of entertaining stories that capture the fear, loneliness, and desperation some individuals suffer while navigating life's periodic challenges. But each encounter is laced with elements of humor, vindication, and promises of salvation-all with the unspoken hope of bringing Satan to his knees.Tom Rizzo, Author, Last Stand at Bitter Creek
