Gregory Hill

An epic journey from New Zealand to Spain, celebrating the enduring romance of travel by train. The journey of The Antipodean Express takes in 89 days of travel, on 33 trains, through 19 countries. It begins in New Zealand's North Island, weaves past the volcanoes of Java, through East Asia and on into Europe. From hilarious miscommunications in China to cultural immersion at the Bolshoi Ballet, there are stop-offs with half a worlds worth of impressions, people, history, food, music and culture. Hill also describes most of the great trains of the Eurasian hemisphere, from New Zealands Northern Explorer to the Eurostar, and everything in between. The culmination is a day spent in the obscure Spanish village of Alaejos, locating the exact antipode of the authors living room. The perfect end to a vast adventure.

A psychedelic tale of adventure and love unfolding on Hill's beloved Eastern Colorado Plains. Our hero and narrator, Narwhal Slotterfield, treks through tornadoes, gutted homesteads and survivalist compounds all while navigating an alternative time/space reality. He's on a journey of self-discovery that resonates as an experimental love song to rural culture on the plains. --Richard Saxton, M12 Studio Director and Professor University of Colorado Boulder

In this loose sequel to his award-winning novel, East of Denver, author Gregory Hill spins another off-kilter yarn set in fictional Strattford County that is "raw, untamed, gritty, bold, fantastic and slightly, wonderfully crazy." Johnny Riles leads a lonesome life on Colorado's high prairie in 1975. His parents abandoned him to the family ranch after he accidentally shot his father, and his irresponsible younger brother, Kitch, left home to become a star player in the American Basketball Association. With only his livestock and his whiskey to keep him company, Johnny spends his hours wandering the barren landscape looking for arrowheads. But one cold, October evening, Johnny finds a mysterious skull half-buried in the ground. When he ties it to his saddle to bring it home, his horse panics and bolts, leaving Johnny alone in a freak blizzard that suddenly blows in. Unprepared for the freezing night, Johnny tracks his horse through the mounting snow, only to discover that it has been gruesomely killed. So begin Johnny's trials. He delves beneath stark Western landscapes, both literal and figurative, to unearth the truths behind his nightmares, searching for the mysterious killer, for his brother's soul, and for a sober reason to live.
