Action packed Western

Was a good little story that hit the ground running and never let up. Pretty simple straightforward story but fairly well written. Characters are enduring the main character is a bit of a Mary Sue. The only distracting thing was the constant POV shifts without good transitions sometimes I lost track of who's POV I was in. overall good short story that you can knock out in a session or two.
