Shooting Iron

Devil's Gulch, Book 2

De: William W. Johnstone, J. A. Johnstone

Narrado por: A.W. Miller

The thundering new adventure starring traveling gunslinger John Holt, a lawman-for-hire on a mission to serve justice across the untamed Colorado territories—one bullet at a time.

One of the deadliest, crime-infested towns in Colorado Territory, Devil's Gulch needed more than a sheriff. They needed a gunslinger. So they pinned a badge on hardcase lawman John Holt. And the rest is history.

As the town's new sheriff, John Holt achieved the impossible: He drove the devil out of Devil's Gulch. Corrupt, cutthroat rancher Joe Mullen—who ruled the land with an iron fist—is finally behind bars, thanks to Sheriff Holt. But the tables are turned when Mullen manages to overturn his prison wagon and make his escape—with an army of prisoners, outlaws, and lowlifes to do his bidding.

It doesn't take long for the streets of Devil's Gulch to run red with blood. Again. Or for Holt to be marked for death. Again. But this time, the sheriff's up against more than a hundred men—all of them gunning for him—and his only allies are an all-too-young deputy, an all-too-angry farmer, and a wayward wagon cook. With odds this bad, Holt is sure of only one thing: when you shoot at the devil, it's best not to miss.

Masterful Story Telling

Many twist and turns in this story. I like that the girl was scared the evil intents of the outlaws and the unrelenting resolve of Marshall Holt.

Lots of dialog, little action

I liked Old Bob and Mr. Patterson. I liked the way the tough sheriff trusted both oldtimers. Also the farmer Mr Henderson's surprising declaration during the read.

Great character mix!!

Very good Book 2 continuation of the Devil’s Gulch story. Lots of characters and personalities…The story keeps moving along, the mental pictures created are g

No ending

There was no real ending. We will have to wait for another book to come out.

Truth and Justice

The story seems to drag on not any boring way the fact that the bad guy gets on getting away.
