Is This A Novel Or A Non-Fiction Book?

Couldn't put it down.

I found myself not wanting to put it down. Page after page I felt like I was there watching the poker game, and smelling the smoke from the gun that just went off. I liked the way that Matt made you think about how each day Doc suffered with his illness and he kept on going. I highly recomend this book. A must read. I bough it three years ago and have read it several time.

A good book to escape the real world...

This is the first Matt Braun book I have ever read and I just loved it. I do not however know much about the historical background of Doc Holliday but I did find the book enjoyable. Matt Braun is a wonderful author.

flesh and blood

This book is good for people who have just discovered Doc or enjoy a more personal book. This book dosn;t keep all the facts straight so you won't sit there and pick out everything wrong. The book dosn't stand aside and give you sketchy details. It's like you're acually playing poker with him.

great book

This book perfectly combines truth and fiction. It captures you. Who will he kill next? Will he ever be shot? Who will he meet next? You will constantly wonder what will happen. I really loved this book, Doc is a gentleman yet a killer without regret. He will pull you in and won't let go!

I think this book is definitely worth your time.

I think this book was outstanding. If you like westerns, you should definitely read this. The book is detailed and it puts you right there by Doc Holliday himself. A must read!
