Mark here. The world of Haxan gives me a lot of room to retell stories and do variations. The short story “Wuthering” is such an example. I mean, how many settings lend themselves to a retelling of Emily Bronte’s Wuthering Heights? Well, in my opinion, Haxan does.
I had fun writing this story because it proved to me I could write, literally, anything in the world of Haxan about any topic whatsoever. That’s one reason I like Haxan. There’s a lot of built-in versatility other than your ordinary cliched western. Once again, I am not saying I am the first or the best writer to have done this with westerns. I merely argue I am having fun doing it!

“Hoover never hesitates to go deep and find what it means to be human.” —Richard Parks, fantasist & SF author
Excellent conversion of the Wuthering Heights horrors inside the human heart into a Western setting! I like the sheriff as the hero and the evil woman as a ghost, not someone living in an attic!
thank you very much, I appreciate that 🙂
