I had a "Van Holt" weekend,  catching up on some of his more recent novels I downloaded. That's the beauty of ebooks: impulse buying where after finishing one book and enjoying it, you simply download the next from the same author. I just finished Gundown Trail and Six Gun Serenade. Before that I read not so long ago The Long Trail, Death in Black Holsters (love the title!), and Shiloh Stark.I never dreamed I would take to Western novels so much, but much of this is due to the author Van Holt who captures this genre so well. His characters feel so real, with a good sense of the language used back then in the Western days, and gunfight scenes to die for. Literally, I guess. Six Gun Serenade is perhaps a more intricate plot than the other books, and all the better for it.Ride on, Van Holt! I love your novels.
