Old west in its glory

2nd story from Elmer K and really enjoy his western stories. Great entertainment while working around the house, spreadsheets etc. action packed from start to finish. No draggy narrations, or political speeches to fill space. Keep saving the old west Elmer!

Performance awesome as always.

Texas Rangers

I liked the first book in this series about Rusty. I think he made the wrong decisions several times. But he is trying to do what's right. There was a lot of action and a good storyline. I'll definitely listen to book number two to see how things play out. Rusty joins the Rangers and that's when I think things got good. If you like westerns with Rangers and the Army and fighting Indians you'll like this. There are several different narrators in this book. I'm starting to like these types of books more.

The story-telling of Kelton is unsurpassable!

Uh, I liked the narrative style of Elmer. He done good job of telling the story!
