Billy the West
Adventure
Coming of age
Humorous
Horses, guns, dust, bandits and sheriffs, all in a country yet to be discovered.
A western story like they used to be, without steampunk elements or references to the present day. Horses, guns, dust, bandits and sheriffs, all in a country yet to be discovered, the Frontier, where living (and surviving) can turn into a daily battle, and winning it isn’t easy. Billy, the protagonist, following an injustice suffered by his father, risks turning into an outlaw, an avenger, destined for prison or the gallows. His friendship with a young Native American and his sister, as well as the wise advice of an elderly cowboy, will prevent Billy from falling into an abyss from which it would be difficult, if not impossible, for him to re-emerge.
- An adventurous story set in an imaginary world built through thousands of films and comics.
- Humour blends perfectly with adventure and highly dramatic moments.
- The point of view of Native Americans, with particular attention to their discrimination and exile on reservations.
