Resumen del Editor

Ride a trail of blazing guns and two-fisted action in the Wild West as L. Ron Hubbard brings American history to life. Growing up in Montana provided him with the first-hand experience that added a tone of authenticity to his western tales. Listeners will feel the heat, taste the dust, and hear the thunder of horses’ hooves in these tales from a master storyteller of the genre.

This 5-audiobook collection includes 11 short stories for 10 hours of immersive entertainment. All audiobooks are unabridged, full-cast productions with cinematic quality sound effects that bring the stories and characters to vivid life.

Titles and short stories in the Western Short Stories Collection Vol 3 include: The Magic Quirt (with: “Vengeance Is Mine!” and “Stacked Bullets”), Gunmanʼs Tally (with: “Ruin at Rio Piedras”), King of the Gunmen (with: “The No-Gun Gunhawk”), The No-Gun Man (with: “Man for Breakfast”), and Tinhornʼs Daughter (with: “When Gilhooly Was in Flower”).

You will love this collection because, as True West Magazine describes, they are “Westerns with the flair of a Louis L’Amour or Zane Grey.” And Booklist compares Mr. Hubbard to “notable western writers as Max Brand, T.T. Flynn, and Alan LeMay.”

Book Descriptions:

The Magic Quirt: Old Laramie is a cook for the Lazy G Ranch and owner of a silver quirt recently given to him after he saves an Aztec family from bandits. The quirt’s magical properties allow Laramie to begin performing extraordinary deeds of courage—or do they? Performed by: R.F. Daley (narrator), Corey Burton, Michael Yurchak, Jim Meskimen, Bob Caso, Jonathan Nichols, Lynsey Bartilson, and Enn Reitel.

Gunmanʼs Tally: Easygoing Easy Bill Gates is forced to defend his ranch from land baron George Barton, who will stop at nothing to take his spread—including hiring the filthiest, fastest gunmen that money can buy. Performed by: R.F. Daley (narrator), Shane Johnson, Jim Meskimen, Christina Huntington, Michael Yurchak, Enn Reitel, and Phil Proctor.

King of the Gunmen: Gunfighter Kit Gordon, also known as “Sudden Death,” pairs with a lawman to make one of the West’s most unlikely duos. Caught between feuding sheepherders and cattle ranchers, Kit must choose to either run for his life or reveal he’s a wanted fugitive and square off with one of the region’s most vicious tyrants. Performed by: R.F. Daley (narrator), Tait Ruppert, Bob Caso, Jim Meskimen, and Tricia Kelly.

The No-Gun Man: Several years back East has changed Monte Calhoun and he has become “The No-Gun Man.” Monte’s civilized now—even if that means refusing to avenge the murder of his own father. But in a land of outlaws and ambushes, it’s only a question of how far Monte will be pushed before he pushes back … with a vengeance. Performed by: R.F. Daley (narrator), David O’Donnell, Luke Baybak, Jim Meskimen, Tait Ruppert, and Michael Yurchak.

Tinhornʼs Daughter: Sunset Maloney hits the trail to foil Double-Deck Trotwood’s illicit attempts to buy up land in Puma Pass. But when Sunset unexpectedly falls in love with the Tinhorn’s innocent daughter, Betsy, Sunset must not only save Puma Pass but somehow open Betsy’s eyes to the truth about her father, risking both their lives in the process. Performed by: R.F. Daley (narrator), Nancy Cartwright, Corey Burton, Tait Ruppert, and Jim Meskimen.
