"Believe.
You are your own true north...Based on what you’ve seen, experienced, heard, and learned, you have to know when to believe in yourself and your dreams. It takes courage to do the right thing, and it takes cowardice to abandon your beliefs."
- Robert Mazerov
Bob Mazerov talks about his novel The Last Horseman, a tale of the Midwest, gambling and down-and-out horsemen and how “ordinary people can do extraordinary things.”
"Set in the theatre of horse racing, The Last Horseman
is about a woman, who – when faced with
the challenge of financial ruin – empowers
herself to outsmart liars, cheaters, and
the horse racing community."
- Robert Mazerov
"The whole story behind The Last Horseman came as a surprise to me. It’s unsettling when your parents become people, with flaws and insecurities. The people I knew weren’t the people I knew. The events I witnessed had far greater complexity and shading to them."
- Robert Mazerov
"The Last Horseman delivers a
powerful story of a man determined to remain
true to his principles and the lengths others
will go to in order to win. With plenty of
twists and turns, it all boils down to one
final race, where all the secrets and
illegal shenanigans are finally revealed."
- Amy Wilson, Novels Alive
Bob Mazerov is in conversation with Fran Lewis to discuss his debut novel,
The Last Horseman, his childhood spent living on a farm in Ohio, and behind-the-scenes info about his mom's illegal gambling scheme.
"The Last Horseman is for anybody who has ever been afraid or asked: “What do I do now?” “What if I take this risk?” “What if I get caught?” “What if I fail?” It’s a book for somebody who has ever wanted to see someone they love succeed...It’s a book where you can find somebody to admire."
- Bob Mazerov
"The author did a wonderful job of describing the racetrack, the horses and their
care, the crowds and the anticipation and excitement before the race."
- Stephanie Hildreth, Reviewer
"It’s definitely a book for people who like
stories about sports, horses, women, friendship,
horse racing, gambling, and danger. But
it’s also a book for people who like sex,
laughter, getting even, and triumph."
- Bob Mazerov
"Perfect for fans of Secretariat and The Greatest Gambling Story Ever Told, The Last Horseman is the story of love and deception, surprise and terror, of laughter and danger, of commitment and infidelity, and of how doing the right thing can come from the most unexpected place."
- Bekah Jorgensen, Motherhood Moment
"...Overall, an intriguing story of horse
racing and gambling."
