Reviews

"Burgdorf's descriptions are so realistic I felt saddle sore and tired after riding the desert with the boys from Company A. If I didn't know better, I would think Burgdorf was there with them. How else can it be so realistic? I'm looking forward to the third of the trilogy. Thanks, Bill, for your work."

Richard H.


"Saddle up and get ready to join the Bierman brothers for a wild round of adventures in the Arizona Territory in the 1880s. A well-researched historical novel, The Arizonan is a masterfully told tale, laced with riveting action, straight-shooting dialogue and compelling story lines. Author Burgdorf gives us bona fide Western characters, authentic details and stories with a cowboy punch. If you’re a fan of Western historical novels, The Arizonan is the real deal."

Lynn A. 


William Burgdorf has written a top-notch western and an even better mystery. His detective is haunted by the fact that he’s had to bury too many boys, and he fears that the vast and empty prairie provides the serial killer with too many places to hide and travel unseen.

How can one man ever track him down?

Burgdorf is a brilliant storyteller.

He can frighten you.

He can leave you feeling uneasy.

He can make you laugh.

He writes so vividly you can feel the heat of an unrelenting sun and taste the dust kicked up by thousands of cattle.

If you like mysteries, westerns, and rip-roaring tales of another and glorious era, you’ll forever remember the time you spent with Red River Station.
