Overview:
Tim Pears’s West Country Trilogy is gathered here as a complete paperback collection, inviting readers to a sweeping, intimate immersion in early 20th‑century rural England. The Horseman begins in 1911, tracing twelve‑year‑old Leopold Sercombe as he helps his father and nurtures a quiet dream of life with horses on an estate. A chance friendship with Miss Charlotte, the Master’s daughter, opens a doorway between worlds bound by class and expectation. In The Wanderers, Leo’s curiosity propels him into a wilder West Country, where he encounters gypsy wagons, untamed landscapes, and lessons about belonging and courage. Redeemed moves us to 1916, where Lottie Prideaux rides a motorcycle to train as a vet, while Leo is hauled across oceans on the HMS Queen Mary. War, loss and longing test loyalties, yet Pears threads a stubborn hope for return and redemption. This trilogy is a lush, mood‑driven adventure—perfect for lovers of historical fiction, nature writing, and immersive character studies who crave a complete, transformative reading journey.
What Makes This Collection Special:
What sets this set apart is the way three novels are woven into one immersive arc, anchored by a shared West Country loom of hedgerows, coastlines, and the patient rhythm of rural life. Pears invites you to grow with Leo and Lottie—from childhood companionship to adulthood shaped by war, ambition, and resilience. The consistent sense of place invites readers to revisit familiar places while discovering fresh corners of the same landscape, ensuring a cohesive, binge‑readable journey across a complete trilogy. The books balance lyrical prose with tactile detail—horses, weather, and wildlife become characters in their own right—making this collection a powerful gift for readers who value atmosphere, emotional resonance, and a lasting sense of home amid upheaval.
Books Included in This Collection:
The Horseman
Set in 1911 on the Devon–Somerset border, The Horseman follows twelve‑year‑old Leopold Sercombe as he helps his father and dreams of a future with the estate’s stud farm. A chance friendship with Miss Charlotte, the Master’s daughter, opens doors across class lines and into a world where responsibility and longing contend. Pears builds a richly textured picture of rural life, where the bond between boy and horse echoes the slow, stubborn tempo of a landscape that shapes a young heart and tests the boundaries of community norms.
The Wanderers
Leo’s journey propels him through the wild, wind‑swept West Country toward Penzance, where he meets a caravan of gypsy wagons and a newer, less predictable sense of freedom. The Wanderers expands the scope—from quiet hedgerows to open seas and untamed horizons—while pressing questions of belonging, loyalty and risk. Pears’s prose invites you to feel the land in all its beauty and peril, and to sense how a single voyage can alter a life’s direction, especially when love and friendship intersect with the danger of the unknown.
The Redeemed
It is 1916. Lottie Prideaux rides the winding lanes on her motorcycle, defying class and gender as she trains to be a vet. Meanwhile Leo Sercombe is far from home, hauling coal aboard the HMS Queen Mary in the middle of the ocean. War’s rawness—its threat, its loyalty, its potential for betrayal—tests every vow and memory. Against this backdrop, a powerful thread of redemption runs through the pair’s intertwined destinies, as hope stubbornly persists that home can endure, even when you must redefine what “home” means. Pears gives us a final, haunting reckoning with love, loss and the quiet courage it takes to return to what remains true.
