The Bodacious Kid

By: Stan Lynde

Narrated by: uncredited

It is the end of the year, 1882, in Progress County in the Montana Territory, when young Merlin Fanshaw finds himself caught between the competing agendas of a ruthless outlaw, two very different lawmen, and one pretty girl. Thus begins the fast-paced adventure of Merlin, the Bodacious Kid, as he deals with gold, greed, and gunfire.

But there is more to this story; within its pages and beneath the sweeping movement of its plot lies a deft and subtle examination of such unchanging and timeless topics such as character, morality, and the place of individual conscience in the life of Merlin, and in the lives of us all. The Bodacious Kid is a novel alive with humor, suspense, romance, and authentic frontier atmosphere gained through a lifetime of living, researching, and depicting the West.

MERLIN FANSHAW 1

This is the first book about Merlin Fanshaw. This book has an excellent storyline. Merlin has a lot to learn. He gets tricked in this story. There is several books about Merlin. I'll definitely continue this series. It not your actions packed shoot em up kind but it's a book with more of a story to it. Stan lynde wrote and narrated this book. He did a great job.
