    About this ebook

    Motion and Rest, now in its second edition, is a Gnostic Western. Robert Glin, a paperback writer of western genre pulp, yearns to write an authentic novel about the new American west. One day he meets an old drifter, Thomas Sligo, who claims to be a Messenger god fallen to earth and who, in fact, can perform minor miracles. They form a caravan and roam the new American west while on their way to salvation.

    J. Hayes Hurley is the author of nineteen novels, including Those Brownsville Blues, The Clarksons, and Twenty-four Days Under Another Sun.
