| Every man walks with a shadow . . . but what happens when he acquires a second one? Just ask Brazosâ a dead ringer for Jack Palance whoâ s a cold-blooded killer for hire with blood on his hands and a posse on his tail.Desperate for cash, Brazos accepts $200 to gun down a local man named Brant. Heâ ll earn every penny . . . but in the end thereâ ll be the devil to pay. Because to put a bullet in Brant means putting one in his partner as wellâ an eerie stranger schooled in the black art of witchcraft. This is one killing that brings with it a deadly curseâ and a second shadow.As Brazos is about to discover, the Wild West doesnâ t get any wilder than when a man is damned to liveâ and dieâ in the Shadows from Boot Hill.A note from L. Ron Hubbard, written many years ago, that could as well be addressed to you, todayâ s reader: â Dear Range Boss: Four million of my words have been published in fifty different magazines. . . . Just now Iâ m larruping fantasy fiction more than anything else, though Iâ ve been writing Westerns for some time, too. Hope your readers like Shadows from Boot Hill. The Old West was superstitious in the extreme and . . . reeks with more fantasy than The Arabian Nights.â Also includes the Western adventures The Gunner from Gehennaâ A minor masterpiece.â â author Will Murray |
