Excerpt from The Land of Frozen Suns: A Novel
There are no corrals in a city, dear, she ex plained - and I cried the harder. I could conceive of no joy in a place where I could not go out to the corrals and have some brown - faced cowpuncher hoist me up on a gentle horse and let me hold the reins while the pony moved sedately about.

Excerpt from The Land of Frozen Suns: A Novel
Who was it, I wonder, made that sagacious remark about the road to hell being paved with good intentions? He might have added an amendment to the effect that there's always a plentiful supply of material for that much travelled highway. We all contribute, more or less. I know I have done so. And so did my people before me. My father's intentions were good, but he didn't live long enough to carry them out. If he hadn't fallen a victim to an inborn streak of recklessness, a habit of taking chances, - well, I can't say just how things would have panned out. I'm not fatalist enough to believe that we crawl or run or soar through our allotted span of years according to some prearranged scheme which we are powerless to modify. Oh no!
