A.W. Baldwin has written five thrillers featuring “Relic,” a moonshining hermit living deep in the remote canyons of Utah. Raptor Canyon received the Grand Master Adventure Writers’ Finalist Award and was a finalist in the 2019-2020 Screen Craft Cinematic Book Contest. Wings Over Ghost Creek received the Grand Master Adventure Writers’ Finalist Award and the Global Book Awards Silver Medal. Broken Inn received the Grand Master Adventure Writers’ Finalist Award, the Global Book Awards Silver Medal, and the New York City Big Book Award Featured Favorite Award. Each have received rave reviews from #1 New York Times Bestselling author Dirk Cussler. Onlinebookclub calls the plot of his latest thriller, The Antidote, “phenomenal” (can a botany student, a couple of old-timers, and genetically modified seeds provide the antidote for climate change?) Award winning author Nate Granzow says "Baldwin is one of the preeminent authors in the adventure-thriller genre and he showcases that talent in spades with his latest novel, The Antidote. A unique premise, richly drawn characters, and constantly increasing risk makes this science-gone-wrong, Crichton-esque thriller a slam dunk. Readers will delight in the protagonists deftly navigating a tangle of intrigue and mortal threats, surviving assassins and gunfights to ensure a brilliant discovery—one that could impact the future of the planet—isn’t lost to corrupt special interests and greed." Dirk Cussler calls Raptor Canyon "[a] captivating joyride…Relentless danger mixed with dusty adventure makes for a gem of a read.” Peter Greene, award-winning author of the Jonathan Moore Adventure Series, says “Raptor Canyon will have you holding your heart and your breath at the same time.” The novel received the Grand Master Adventure Writer's Finalist Award in 2019, sponsored by New York Times best-selling author Clive Cussler. Readers' Favorites calls Raptor Canyon “a hoot of an adventure novel... most highly recommended” and "a terrific book." It was a ScreenCraft Cinematic Book Contest Finalist in 2019-2020 and has a 4 out of 4-star review from OnlineBookClub.org. An avid backcountry hiker, canoer, and whitewater enthusiast, the author takes his readers on adventures in ancient lands that shape the motives and spirits of his characters.
