Elizabeth Fackler won the 2009 Best Historical Novel Award for My
Eyes Have A Cold Nose and was a finalist for the 2007 Best
Historical Novel Award for Bone Justice in the New Mexico Book
Awards. Her historical novel on the Lincoln County War, Billy the
Kid: The Legend of El Chivato¸ was called “a magnificent
achievement in historical fiction” by Western Writers of America.
Elmer Kelton said, “She makes the legend live.” Award-winning
author Ed Gorman said, “She has a unique approach to storytelling
and speaks in a voice all her own. Equally exceptional in both
crime and historical fiction, she makes familiar elements startling
and new through the dazzle of her prose and the humanity of her
forgiving gaze.”
“Both Lily and Claire are authentic examples of pioneer women who
attain strength and autonomy in later life if the hardships of
their youth don’t kill them first.” —New Mexico Magazine
“A riveting tale of revenge and thwarted love.” —Amarillo News
Globe
“Stylishly written, full of memorable characters.” —Booklist
