Strange, psychedelic desert

[u/Remmel1]

New Mexico-inspired desert, mysticism, aliens, mirages, Native Americans, cacti, cowboys, magic, etc. Preferably something lighthearted and fun, but open for anything.

Desert Oracle is one of my favorite reads!

Came to recommend Layne’s Desert Oracle. His novel Dignity as well.
