BUCKSKIN BRIGADES is Released
by BWW News Desk - January 07, 2016
Galaxy Press is bringing in the New Year with a message of honor and integrity as told in the L. Ron Hubbard Western Fiction story, 'Buckskin Brigades,' a story of which the New York Times wrote, 'Mr. Hubbard has reversed a time-honored formula and has given a thriller to which, at the end of every chapter or so, another paleface bites the dust ... [It has] an enthusiasm, even a freshness and sparkle, decidedly rare in this type of romance.' 'Buckskin Brigades' is premised on the Lewis & Clark Expedition murder of a Native American Blackfeet Indian Chief in 1806 near what is now Helena, Montana, and its effect in changing the course of history. The story is an adventure of the nascent American Northwest, and skillfully weaves together the history of the Lewis and Clark Expedition, its encounter with the Blackfeet Indians, the era's rapacious fur traders, and a figure of singular destiny, a white man named Michael Kirk but known to the Blackfeet as 'Yellow Hair.' The impact of the story's message was so significant, it prompted a letter of recognition to L. Ron Hubbard from the Council Members of the Blackfeet Nation which read in part, 'Like 'Yellow Hair' you have walked the Blackfeet path with honor and have showed our people in a true light. Never has our morals and ethics been presented with such clarity.' L. Ron Hubbard was born on March 13, 1911 in Tilden, Nebraska and soon thereafter moved to Helena, Montana, where a young Ron learned to read and write, ride horses and pan for gold. It was also in Helena that he was honored with the status of Blood Brother of the Blackfeet Indians. He later became one of America's most prolific writers of popular fiction producing over 18 million words of fiction with a writing career that spanned over five decades. During the 1930s and 40s he authored more than 250 short stories, novelettes and novels under his own name and any of his 15 pen names at a production rate of about 100,000 words a month. His published works from that era encompassed adventure, detective, science fiction, western and fantasy work and can be found at www.GalaxyPress.com. 'Buckskin Brigades' is available at www.Amazon.com, www.BN.com, and www.GalaxyPress.com.

THE GOLDEN CHALICE OF HUNAHPU Released as an E-Book
by BWW News Desk - January 07, 2016
The Golden Chalice of Hunahpu, the 2015 Fiction Book Award winner of the Bay Area Independent Publisher's Association, is being released in ebook form through Amazon, Apple, Smashwords, Barnes and Nobles, Sony and other ebook stores. The Historical Novel Society, in a recent review, praised the literary historical novel The Golden Chalice of Hunahpú: A Novel of the Spanish Attack on the Maya (Full Court Press, 2014). The reviewer, Charlotte Kirsch, states, 'The Spanish conquest of the Mayan civilization in the 16th Century forms the dramatic climax of William Vlach's sweeping novel The Golden Chalice of Hunahpu, but the narrative is much more generous than that of simple military fiction; through a fascinating cast of disparate characters, Vlach dramatizes what he refers to as a 'sixteenth-century American holocaust.' The Golden Chalice of Hunahapú is an epic novel of the violent birth of the Americas, an odyssey moving from the pre-Columbian Mayan empire to the splendid Golden Age of Spain then back to the battle for the land and soul of Guatemala. The tale is told in three first person chronicles: Kaqchikel Mayan prince Belehe Qat is both witness and warrior as he tries to save his people; young and fierce Spanish noblewoman Beatriz pursues marriage to the powerful conquistador, Alvarado, only to find the New World is more than she bargained for; and the hilariously acerbic Domingo, a Sancho Panza-like monk, seeks to find meaning in the middle of this 16th century American holocaust. Their intertwining stories lead to the shocking volcanic climax. Vlach, a police psychologist, who has done field work in Guatemala with his anthropologist wife, Norita Vlach, has published poetry, essays, and won awards for both his playwriting and parody. Charlotte Kirsch ends her review for The Historical Novel Society by writing: 'The book is barely three-hundred pages long but feels as satisfying as an epic three times that length.' The Golden Chalice of Hunahpú: A Novel of the Spanish Attack on the Maya is available at independent bookstores, Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble.com, and other online bookstores.
