This is a great book. Steve Dancy is a very interesting character. He has a modern mind operating in the old west.
I highly recommend this book.
Book Review: Great Read
Summary: 5 Stars
I can't say that I'm big reader of the Western genre. I'm more of a fan of historical fiction. But this title caught my eye after browsing on Amazon. I have to say that I loved this book. It is a very entertaining read. Well written. I never write reviews, but wanted to endorse this one. I've already purchased Jim Best's sequel "Leadville."Book Review: Great story and characters.
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is an excellent work of fiction that occurs in the old west, however it's far from being a western. This book conjurs up images as you read it. I can see Sam Elliott as the Pinkerton Captain and Robert Duvall as the hired sharpshooter, and maybe an unknown as the main character who is from NYC but he's different than a typical city resident and enjoys the outdoors. He's doing more than the typical journey to seek adventure in the west. It's a very enjoyable read. Generally I prefer historical fiction but I'll be looking for this authors next book.Book Review: Great western for people who don't like westerns and for those who do
Summary: 4 Stars
I enjoyed the tales of this shopkeeper. I hated when I ran out of pages to read. Even though this is a western, I didn't feel like it was one of my Grandpa's westerns. I loved it, and it is not the type of fiction I normally pick.
