From James Reasoner weird to Chuck Tyrell wild, from Evan Lewis' joyful mayhem to Patti Abbott's literary voice, there's not a western collection around offering this much variety. Editor David Cranmer (Beat to a Pulp) draws the reader in with six shorts, then presents a gritty, new Cash Laramie novella by Wayne D. Dundee. Wayne is no stranger to the U.S. Deputy Marshall and immediately brings on the action, driving in a direction I never wouldn't guessed. Additionally, new characters  "Professor" Wizarious and Beatrice Blaze offer a welcome touch of whimsy reminiscent of the best B-westerns movies.  All in all, a fine example of the new western pulp!
