Publisher's summary

In the best-selling novels of William W. Johnstone, mountain man Smoke Jensen is a legend. Now, Johnstone presents the adventures of Smoke's long-lost brother Luke, who was reported killed during the Civil War. The war is over and Luke is very much alive, his soul forged by the violence he witnessed on the battlefields. His job is now tracking down the worst outlaws - by any means necessary.

Still enjoying the Johnstones writing

I’m still enjoying the Johnstone’s writing. They have crafted some wonderful stories. Their characters are well crafted and fit within the Western genre. I highly recommend this book and series. I have recently discovered the Johnstones and have enjoyed all the books I have read/listened to.

Dead Shot

This book is about Luke Jensen. Luke is on the trail of a couple of outlaws and a young boy helps him. This is a very exciting book with plenty of action . Gunfights Bank robberies everything you would want in a western. Jack Garret does an excellent job narrating this book. All of the books on Luke has been good. Also the books on his brother Matt Jensen is also good. If my review is any help will you please click on the helpful link below. Thank you.

Dead Shot: Luke Jensen, Bounty Hunter, Book 2.

Where does Dead Shot rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This is book 2 of Mr. Johnstone's series of Luke Jensen, Bounty Hunter and ranks among the other Johnston's book the same. He keeps your interest from page 1 to the end.

What other book might you compare Dead Shot to and why?

I can not really compare it to any other books written by the Johnston's, for I have only read the 1st.

What does Jack Garrett bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

As I have noted in my review of Book 1 by this author, Book 2 kept me up at nights. I think Mr. Garrett is an excellent narrator and I could listen to him every book I read. He has a gruff voice which gives all his male characters different sounds and very mild for the ladies and others.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I can not point out any particular moments that moved me, for Luke handles himself extremely well in all the situations he finds himself in. He places Luke in very serious predicaments and he always comes up with an answer or solution to keep you interested and not want to put his books down. I think he depicts the Old West as I have visualized it in my mind since childhood. I would recommend his books to all that enjoy good old Western stories. Suitable for younger Western lovers.

Any additional comments?

I am just now getting ready to start book 3 and I can't wait to get immerged again. High O Silver Away! Ha! I mostly listen to his books rather than read them, for I find it more enjoyable.

The adventure!

What did you like best about this story?

Hobie's introduction into bounty hunting as he follows Luke after the bank robbers.

What does Jack Garrett bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

His depiction of the characters make them more real than my reading about them myself.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Some of the violence was too gory for me, so effected me negatively.

Any additional comments?

I like to see the bad guys brought to justice, dead or alive!
