For many in the war-torn county of Fort Such memories of the bloody feud between the mighty Doubletree and Rancho Antigua cattle country giants were re-awakened. This had caused many an honest settler to up stakes and move on, to be replaced in turn by those of the new breed. They called them gunfighters, but most were simply killers, lethal gunmen and drifters who could quickly convert any troubled territory into a graveyard. Yet the bloodshed and carnage also attracted a lone man with a gun whom Fort Such had all but forgotten over the years. His arrival brought the feud to explosion point.

Review of Whispering Skull by Dead Edwards

In search of work, cow-puncher Jeff Stewart, is heading south. Making his way through the strange, untamed landscape that fringes the arid desert, Stewart is riding up into the maze of canyons when there is distant gunfire and a massive explosion. With the sound of bullets ringing in his ears, the naive cowboy has no idea that the savage Barton gang are en route to the notorious prison Fort Addams, to free their leader. And that soon the gang, and Jeff Stewart will be on a deadly collision course...

The perfect B-movie western that would keep me enthralled every time we went to the cinema and waited for the main feature. My choice for Stewart would be Randolph Scott. Thrills and spills on every page, a hugely entertaining read, excellent stuff.
