This book Includes Something for Everyone
Adventure for the boys (and men):
Snakeskin McMurtry had two six-guns, a lever action Winchester, and a long-range Whitworth rifle. He had put his life on the line dozens of times to get his ranch and no man was going to take it away from him. Not by a jugful. Yeah, and no woman was either. No matter how he felt about her.
A rip-roaring western full of action and adventure, gunfights, and hair-breadth escapes, cowboys and Indians, love and romance along with Doc Holliday, Butch Cassidy, Stinky David, Pine Cone Ray, and Johnny-Behind-the-Rock.
If you like westerns, thrillers, hard men, beautiful women, the smell of gunsmoke, and even some humor, this is the book for you.
Romance for the girls:
Annawest looked up at the beautiful moonrise and wept. She had finally found the man who could be hers for life. But Oh! She was afraid to love him. Every time she gave her heart to someone, that man was killed. This handsome, brave, and loving man she had just met had been a bounty hunter. If his past caught up with him, her heart would be broken again. Dare she risk it? Dare she take a chance? She didn’t want to live life as an old maid with a heart as dry and bitter as an alkali desert. But how could she bear weeping again over the body of a man she loved. Whatever was she to do? (She gets it figured out. Pretty much.)
And for the thinking man and woman:
Here’s what a highly intellectual reviewer might say, maybe: “Just when you thought the western clichés could not be avoided in another way, along comes this first novel by ‘Buck Immov”. (We suspect a pen name, here.) It is a western and a fun read but there are themes: 1) You gotta change to remain the same, 2) Happiness takes courage sometimes, 3) Killing kills the killer 4) Think, don't shoot, 5) Prejudice backfires, 6) Save the earth, you can't live anywhere else.
There are, needless to say, narrow escapes (She saves him), romantic problems, terrible choices, and knotty conundrums ("How is he going to get out of this one?" you'll say.) Oh. And the girls get to be heroic, too (only fair). Not only that, but ‘Buck’ has actually done his research (!). From the Timber and Stone act, to the Hagarman tunnel, to the capacities of the Whitworth rifle, and the facial expressions of horses, he remains, accurate.
This western version of the Canterbury Tales takes us to the Old West, the Old South, and the old St. Louis social scene. There is authentic western dialog, believable emotions (Surely the girl would object to her chosen one getting into gunfights.), ingenious plotting, clear narrative, and humor. We pronounce this novel ‘highly readable’. We have spoken.”
