The Apprenticeship of Nigel Blackthorn
Description:
A teen boy is left to die on the prairie. Can he find the grit to survive and exact his revenge?
His easy childhood crumbled when a painted arrow plunked into his father’s chest. Thirteen-year-old Nigel Blackthorn, the spoiled son of a Protestant preacher, escapes the martyr’s death that claimed his missionary family, but the preacher’s kid finds himself alone and struggling to survive the wild frontier. Coming-of-Age in 1853 West Texas.
Will plump, lazy, and spoiled Nigel learn to survive on the prairie?
Will the passing mule-train become a rescue or become bondage?
Is the defrocked priest, Pascal, benevolent, or a benevolent dictator?
Nigel enters an unwelcome new world–work or starve.
Two hundred miles later, when the mule train reaches the first settlement, Pascal gives Nigel a choice: enter an orphanage or enter apprenticeship on the mule train for a piddling wage.
Years later, Nigel wonders if the orphanage would have been easier.
