| 1 | Madame Mustache and the Boys of Bodie | 2015 | Kristiana Gregory | Buy |
Kristiana Gregory’s short fiction consists of a single novella, Madame Mustache and the Boys of Bodie, published in 2015. The story is set in Bodie, a real California mining town that became a ghost town, and features the colorful characters and rough-and-tumble atmosphere of the Wild West.
The novella is a compact piece of historical fiction that shows Gregory’s ability to bring lesser-known historical settings to life. Bodie is a popular tourist destination today, and the story gives young readers a fictional window into the town’s livelier past.
