Mightier Than the Sword

Mightier Than the Sword is a raw, propulsive novel about belief, power, and the stories we tell ourselves to survive.

Four college professors embark on a crime spree in North Arizona in 1993. They start by robbing on off-campus bookstore, but when things don't go as planned, the book bandits are drawn into a bigger, bolder caper involving corrupt university officials, drug-dealing frat boys, Navajo ex-cons, and a mysterious golden pen. Steeped in the lore of the West, Mightier Than the Sword is a twisty, pulp take on the dirtest job of them all: working as a part-time professor in a college town.
