An Ounce of Lead

By: pdmac

Narrated by: Steve Wannall

Reginald Worthington is a vindictive man. He blames US Marshal Mason Sadler for the death of his only child, the former Mrs. Sadler. Now Worthington wants revenge.

Enlisting the services of a highly skilled team of cutthroats, he dispatches them to Tombstone with orders to kill Sadler and anyone he cares about, especially Belle Dubois, the Bird Cage Theater Madame and the love of his life who just happens to be the new Mrs. Sadler.

Not leaving the Marshal's demise to chance, Worthington also engages the talents of the Professor and his latest invention, a quadcopter mounted with a Gatling Gun. His mission? Kill Sadler, even if it means destroying Tombstone in the process.

Expecting Worthington's retribution, the Marshal assembles his own team: the ever resourceful Belle Dubois who just happens to be a Pinkerton agent; two Chiricahua Machinists and their single-seater airships; Johnny Ringo, a gunslinger of questionable repute; and two walking dead, one a 350-year-old conquistador and the other a recently murdered miner.

Right now, things aren't looking too good for the Marshal and his motley crew.

Another great tale of Marshal Sadler!

I was voluntarily provided this review copy audiobook at no charge by the narrator or author.

I can’t help but to think that we haven’t heard the end of Mason Sadler, or atleast I hope not.
The book was action packed from beginning to end. The author does a great job of setting the scenes. If youve ever been to Arizona the descriptions are spot on. You can visualize the entire book.
The story was entertaining with a few unexpected twists that will have you shaking your head.
The narrator was also great. His characters were distinctive, his accents were almost perfect, and very understandable.

I hope there’s a third! Maybe Sadler will get all of the worthington money by some twist of fate???

The west meets the modern age

I enjoyed this story. pdmac write an intriguing story where the old west meets the modern age. The way pdmac incorporates machines, zombies and romance makes for an engaging book. Steve Wannall does a very good job in the narration of the story.

A Steampunk History of Cochise County

Author pd mac's strong sense of humor is clearly evident in this steampunk western featuring zombies and a bit of romance. Cochise County, Arizona Territory, is explored from the Dragoons (the mountain chain in which Cochise hid out) to iconic Tombstone to that booming copper town, Bisbee, with side trips to a few other landmarks and, oh, yeah, that California city, San Francisco. As expertly narrated by Steve Wannall, I was thoroughly captivated and entertained.

Enjoyable Steampunk Western

I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

This was pretty entertaining, just as the previous book about Marshal Sadler. It is mostly a western with some steampunk and paranormal elements thrown in. All in all, it is definitely entertaining and worth checking out if you like this sort of story.

A Good Listen

This one started a bit slow, but picked up and became a nice steampunk western. I liked the sparing use of steampunk instead of the overpowering take that many authors use. I think my favorite characters were to the Indian engineers. The take on the neighboring mountains was very creative as well and I really enjoyed the "against the odds struggle" as well as the MC not having to be the one that gets all the wins. It was narrated excellently by Steve Wannall.

All in all, it was an excellent listen.
