This Western novel covers a conflict with a gang of Comancheros in southwestern Texas shortly after the Civil War. There is plenty of western violence and action in this story. However, the dialogue and characters most closely resemble what you’d have found in an old B western movie. In other words, not very imaginative. Also, the story suffers from both historical inaccuracies and poorly published text. The beginning describes the two characters who are returning home after the war as Union arm This Western novel covers a conflict with a gang of Comancheros in southwestern Texas shortly after the Civil War. There is plenty of western violence and action in this story. However, the dialogue and characters most closely resemble what you’d have found in an old B western movie. In other words, not very imaginative. Also, the story suffers from both historical inaccuracies and poorly published text. The beginning describes the two characters who are returning home after the war as Union army veterans. As you further read the story, you’ll see that they are actually Confederate Army veterans. In addition, the reader is told that it is June of 1865 and Robert E. Lee surrendered one month ago. The surrender was in early April of 1865, not the month of May. Lines of text are repeated (printed twice in this kindle edition). This causes needless stumbling over the text as you read the story.

Not my style,but entertaining. While I was raised on westerns , so I feel that I can make an educated appraisal as to the few things that felt that just made this writers style either slow, or disconnected. I just felt no connection to bad guys or good one. I will keep reading this author too watch his growth. But now it's just not my first choice. Not my style,but entertaining.

Wars are never a good thing. Bart is a good man returning home after the war between the states with his friend Adam. An attack from commancheros leaves Adam dead but Bart survived. He swore revenge. A hard to put down western. Lots of action and a bit of romance. Some of this is very detailed and very helpful to imagine what is going on.

A true Western stort This is a story that takes place after the civil war. Still bad feelings between the North and South,then add in the American Indians who are not happy to have any white men in their land. Then the battle begins

Exciting This story of a town coming together to fight off Comancheros, who want to destroy the town and kill everyone in it. The storyline will keep you turning the pages.

Typical Western Fast-paced and holds a reader's interest. Dismal editing and proofreading, the worst I've seen in a long while! With better editing, I would have scored it higher.

Rock Springs A story of life and love ,hate and death. A reminder of both good & bad. More on how the West was won or at least taking for a part of the U.S.

Action Packed Lots of action with a little romance thrown in for good measure. A little disjointed at times, but not enough to throw the reader off.
