Review: Another Van Holt western, another fun read

This is my second Van Holt book, the first being The Gundowners.  As I stated in that review, I was not a big fan of westerns before reading that one, but I really enjoyed it.  I got a hankerin' (Do you like my cowboy talk?) for another western, so I thought I would check out Shoot To Kill.This story centers around Mark Reston, who tries to save a woman named Cassie from an attack.  During the attempted rescue, a band of outlaws come along, attack Mark, and leave him for dead.  He does not die, however (SPOILER ALERT), and sets out on a tale of revenge.I have to say, this being my second Van Holt book, that my enjoyment of The Gundowners was not a fluke.  This book is very well paced, and the characters are very well fleshed out.  From Mark's resolution to exact revenge, to the back and forth struggle of Cassie's dilemma of hunting FOR Mark, the character motivations are very entertaining.So far, I'm 2 for 2 with Van Holt books.  I will definitely try more in the future.
