Airdrie author launches novel - All That’s Left Behind

[u/Thinkdan]

Day two after by book release!

All That’s Left Behind is #5 in 19th Century Historical Fiction and #11 in Westerns on Amazon.ca.

Thank you to everyone who picked up a copy already!

I am an Airdrie local and born and raised Albertan. My name is Daniel and I have 25+ years experience as a creative artist and this is my debut novel, released on September 29 through my own imprint Blackridge Editions. This literary Western is set in the 1880s Pacific Northwest. I wrote and designed the book myself along with chapter illustrations, and maps.

The novel follows Silas Mercer, an aging outlaw facing the collapse of his gang, a reckoning with his past, and a daughter who doesn't know his name. It is a brutal, elegiac story in the tradition of Lonesome Dove and No Country for Old Men.

I’ll have signed copies with the limited edition fold-out map of Anjeer State this Saturday, October 3, 2 to 4 p.m., at 948 Brewing Co. in Airdrie, Alberta. Or order from my website www.danpenton.com/signed for personalized copies, shipped in Canada.

Congratulations! That’s an amazing achievement. I bought myself a copy in support but my TBR list is daunting so it may be closer to the end of the year when I get to read it.

[u/Thinkdan → u/fwnav]

Wow thanks for your purchase! I hope you enjoy it. Let me know what you think after the read.

400 pages! What kind of attention span do you oh look at the shiny thing!

(but seriously, that's awesome!)

[u/Thinkdan → u/Any_Television_8614]

87,000ish words. There’s some back matter content included that contains a bit more detail after the read. I also wanted to balance readability with all my audiences, the older folks like a bit larger type (I tested this), a hair more leading, and that ultimately means more pages.

Thanks for the kind words!
