Customer Reviews

A fantastic western adventure with some great characters. One of the best in the series.

This was the first of the giant novel Longarm series I have read and it was a fantastic read. The character development and the story flowed beautifully. This western novel had a little bit of everything and would make a great movie. From the beginning chapter, where Longarm is on a stake out for a wanted killer, to the explosive end this is a book you will really enjoy reading. As always, I never spoil a non-fiction review by telling you all about the book. What I will say is that if you are into Deputy U.S. Marshal Custis Long western series, you will really enjoy this volume. Rating: 5 Stars. Joseph J.

A Longarm book you can't miss!

Felix Gaunt, with an impressively long criminal record, makes the mistake of shooting a federal employee. Unknown to him he now has Deputy U.S. Marshal Custis Long breathing down his neck from Wichita to Fort Worth. But then a contest seeking the fastest draw and best shot in the West lures both men to enter. Longarm will have to dispatch a few other contestants along the way, but he's got his eyes set on the grand prize - Felix Gaunt in a pine box. What a shame the back blurb to this book doesn't mention that it sees the return of the leading characters from the long gone series Doc and Raider as they feature as much in this fast moving story as does Longarm. Tabor Evans writers a few chapters about each of his three leading characters before they all find themselves drawn together at the event to win the Golden Eagle of the title, all being driven by different reasons for being there, only to find things ain't what they seem when the contest begins. What unfolds means that Long, Raider and Doc can now work together for the latter part of the story. And what a story it is Evans has one hell of a twist waiting for his heroes and readers, a twist I'm not going to even hint at here other than to say it made me gasp out loud it was so unexpected - not least the possibilities it throws up for future storylines. For fans of Longarm - and fans of Doc and Raider - this is a must read, and for fans who just want a great western to read then this is highly recommended.
