Publisher's summary

Western. Wuxia. Wild.

Imagine: a fantasy world, but not one based on medieval/Dark Ages European culture and myth, but rather on the tropes of the spaghetti Western and Chinese Wuxia. Add steampunk elements. Mix well.

A fantasy world that mixes the inspirations of Django and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, The Good, The Bad & The Ugly, House of Flying Daggers, Fistful of Dollars, and Fist of Legend.

A fantasy world that's explored through a book series, a constantly updated website, a tabletop role-playing game, comics, artwork, web series, and much, much, more.

This is Far West.

Tales of the Far West is the first book in Adamant Entertainment's Wuxia-Western mashup, featuring a dozen all-new tales written by critically acclaimed and award-winning fantasy, science fiction, horror, and adventure authors, including New York Times best-selling authors Scott Lynch, Chuck Wendig, Matt Forbeck, Aaron Rosenberg, Gareth-Michael Skarka, Tessa Gratton, Eddy Webb, Will Hindmarch, Ari Marmell, T.S. Luikart, Jason Blair, and Dave Gross.

Enter a world where gunslingers and kung fu masters face off against steam barons and the august throne. An endless frontier where wandering heroes fight for righteous causes while secret societies engage in shadow wars. Enter...the Far West.

Boring, flat, unmasterly, void of content

In any collection of short stories there are some good ones, some bad ones and some OKish. Not here.
Not a single story in this volume was in any way interesting, engaging, worthy of the reader's time.
Not even the one by Scott Lynch, he who gave life to Locke Lamora.
I don't recall the last time I have put a book away with such a feeling of wasted effort.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
