Editorial Review:

Product Description:


In an alternative universe, Davy Crocket survived the 1836 siege at the Alamo, and Santa Ana did not. As a result, Texas remained an independent republic and never joined the United States.



In 1947, Texican President Charles A. Lindbergh learns that a flying saucer has crashed near the far west Texas town of Roswell. He dispatches his best friend, "Wild Bill" Bear, and three of his best Texas Rangers, to investigate. Our four heroes find themselves in a race against agents from the United States, the Franco-Mexican Empire, the California Republic, and the Third-and-a-half Reich, to find that crashed saucer and learn its secrets.



And when they do, they will change the course of history, again.





Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great libertarian Sci-Fi
I really enjoyed reading it online at bigheadpress.com and decided to buy it. The only thing different is that the print version is black&white and it's color online.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Give it a try
Normally I`m not a big fan of comic books, even fancy ones they call graphic novels, but in this case I have to make an exception.
The story is excellent and so is the art work. Filled with fun, humor, and the promotion of individual liberty.
It`s not as good as some of Smith`s novels, but it`s still good in its own right. I highly recommend it.




Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - L Neil is King of Libertarian Alt. Hist. SF
Imagine an Earth where Texas stayed out of the Union, where California truly became a "Magical Kingdom" - complete with President Walt Disney - where it was Laurence of Albania, not Arabia, where Malcom X stay Malcom Little - and became a Texas Ranger. Yes, in Roswell, Texas, all this happens! And we find out the source of the Grays as well as just who was piloting the Roswell Saucer.

Don't miss this read!



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Roswell, Texas
L. Neil Smith's last book I read, The Probability Broach, was exciting and gave someone what a dyed in the wool libertarian society could look like. The colored graphics was pleasing and engaging. Roswell, Texas is simply not as good in terms of story and graphics which is strictly black and white. Still worth reading but if you were to choose one, choose The Probability Broach.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - ANOTHER GREAT LIBERTARIAN STORY
Lneil and co have put together a great alternate universe tale of what having freedom is all about...something not recognized in today's environment...I've read about all of his books and really really enjoy the theme behind the story...the humor is dry and witty...keep them coming sensei!!!!
