Gripping

The book is written by J. A. Johnstone (William Johnstone’s nephew) as William Johnstone died in 2004. This is book two in the Will Tanner Series. The book is well written and is non-stop action. Will is after two train robbers. This is a good old fashion western where everything is black and white; there is no gray area. Also, there is no foul language or steamy sex scenes. If you are looking for a quick fun read, give this book a try.

The book is eight hours and twenty-one minutes. Eric Michael Summerer does a good job narrating the story. Summerer is a voice-over artist and audiobook narrator.

Another good western

I’d like the Marshall Will Tanner series. There’s just enough gunplay, horseplay, bad men, and good men. There’s also a little comedic relief. I would say the only thing from beginning to end of the whole series is that Will’s English grammar changes from one time to the next, making him seem uneducated, and at another time, seem very educated. It may not be the best western ever, but it is a good read, and I like the narrator. If you want a western that doesn’t have too much blood and guts, cussing, and you want to learn a little about the countryside. This is a good series to start with.

J.A.Johnstone is not the nephew, but the niece of William Johnstone. Most of the books since 2004 are written partially by her or by someone else under her name. You can generally tell by the various series. She should do like other authors do, and that is to share the glory so we can follow those authors we like.

Pretty hokey

Fairly remedial story and the whole the worst colloquialisms were laughable. A lot like watching a goofy old western from the 50s. Not much of an ending either.

A stranger in town

This is a good series. Will Tanner is tough and will do whatever he has to do to get the job done. This book is worth the money or credit. I enjoyed it. If my review is any help will you please click on the helpful link below. Thank you.

Entertaining

Westerns are not my usual genre, but I really enjoyed this fast paced tale, with plenty of action and well-drawn characters. And such an excellent narrator !

GREAT BOOK!!

loved the series. The best part is when Will Tanner is on a man hunt. I love how the story has a little of Wills personal life and Deputy life is crazy cool. I get a great visual while I'm working. The narrator is great for me. I have listened to this series twice so far don't doubt that I will listen a 3rd time.

was already in my library but no record of it

paid for it twice since it was in my library already should not have sold it to me twice

Purdy good

The series is definitely a good listen. I already bought the rest of them. Would make a good tv series

I'm excited to continue the journey!

Will Tanner is turning out to be a pretty good law man. I like the fact that there is minimal cussing and clear details.

great story!

love this series. can't wait to get the next one. amazing reading. couldn't stop listening.
