Run with the Outlaws: Epic Western Tales

Epic cowboy Westerns come alive in Robert Gilbert's collection of ten short-story tales across the high plains, a sweltering desert, mountain ranges with towering peaks and bending canyon walls where sunlight disappears on a blistering day. Not far away is a place called Cheyenne River, a tough cowboy town, kept peaceful by U.S. Marshal Warren Brothers. He carries himself with confidence, is muscular, and his skin is bronzed by the wind and sun. His dark eyes frame a hard, weathered face, and a thick mustache curls above his lips. Along with Marshal Brothers, you will be introduced to Marshal Garriet Bask. Together they are up against villains, desperadoes and gunslingers who tempt their fate. Few of these misfits become victorious while others feel the hot lead from a Colt .44 penetrate their body. These ten tales are stories of a Western frontier, with mean-talking strangers who have shadowy quick eyes beneath a worn Stetson. Voices speak in a cowboy twang, laughter is rough and the smell of whiskey and smoke drift about in every saloon.
