I can not remember when the
last time was that I read a Western. Of
course as you age, that is not nearly remarkable as it once was. This is a tale of betrayal, despair, revenge
and acceptance set in the wilds of the Wild West.
Morgan Kane is portrayed as
a harsh harbinger of justice. He metes
out punishment based on his perception of the law. His portrayal is made believable due to his
shrieks of fear, depths of despair and melancholy nature.
Kane is larger than life but
shows his humanity in both fragility and harshness. I don’t know who or how to compare this
since I seldom read Westerns. The story
is brief and has a certain pathos or perhaps romanticism in Kane’s conflict
with personal relationships.
I recommend the book.
This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
