About the Book
A thrilling Space Western adventure awaits!
Step into the boots of Declan Ortega McManus, a sharp-shooting interstellar gunslinger, in Have Blaster, Will Travel, the electrifying first installment of J.A. Sutherland’s Dark Frontiers series.
When Declan lands on the desolate, lawless planet of Miller’s Folly, he’s just passing through—until a chance encounter with a mysterious woman, Mary Chaney, turns his plans upside down. Out of place in her high heels and Core World dress, Mary hides secrets that draw Declan into a dangerous web of deception, power struggles, and betrayal. As outlaws, corrupt officials, and ruthless ranchers close in, Declan must rely on his quick draw, keen wits, and a pair of trusty revolvers—one gunpowder, one laser—to survive.
From dusty landing fields to treacherous train rides across a barren world, Declan navigates a landscape where every alliance is fragile and every shadow hides a threat. With the stakes rising and Mary’s past unraveling, he uncovers a plot that could shake Miller’s Folly to its core. Will Declan’s blaster be enough to protect the innocent and bring justice to a world teetering on the edge?
Perfect for fans of Firefly, The Mandalorian, and classic Westerns, Have Blaster, Will Travel delivers pulse-pounding action, richly drawn characters, and a vividly realized sci-fi frontier. Strap on your holster, charge your laser, and join Declan Ortega McManus for an unforgettable ride through the stars.
