Publisher's Summary:

The high-stepping mare balked, tossing a proud but weary head, and whinnied a protest as the dust-covered gambler stood high in his stirrups and surveyed the forbidding terrain in front of him. A hundred miles.... Maybe more, he thought. A burned and blasted desert...filled with hostiles, and no water but what he carried in the two canteens slung over his saddle horn. A wide-open inside straight if ever there was one, he cursed angrily, knowing there was no choice but to draw to it despite the odds. Not more than an hour behind him were nine, maybe 10, hired guns.

The gambler gritted his teeth and roweled the lathered flanks of the mare. She reared at this latest outrage, plunged, and then resigned herself to the rider's choice. Gingerly, hesitantly, she stepped out onto the rocky, splintered surface. Wes Farley knew the mare was trying to warn him that death waited for both of them out there under that blistering sun.

If Wes prided himself on being a gentleman, despite his disheveled finery, he was also aware that the mare considered herself a lady, and not used to the treatment she'd received over the past few days. She was a creature that thrived on pampering and was bred for speed and beauty. Wes suppressed with difficulty a natural feeling of guilt for pushing her so hard. While nothing might catch her over the short haul, almost anything on four legs could outdistance her in time...and that was a commodity Wes Farley was critically short of.

A week now they had been dogging him...ever since Central City and the game....

Members Reviews:

Dude By Edward Easton is an Excellent Western Novel

Dude by Edward Easton, first published in 1991 has

been released as an E-Book on Amazon. A Western

Novel, it takes place in the rugged desert areas of

the old Western USA. The time is in the 1800's in

the era of the Apache Chiefs Geronimo, and Cochise.

The principal locations are in their hostile

territories with its fierce hot and dry climate and

nearby white man's settlements in rugged the old

semi-lawless Wild-West. It concerns the adventures of

a former riverboat gambler and his various

adventures as he tries to pass through on his way to

California.

The novel has adventure, excitement, suspense and

even romance all woven together in a well written

novel which makes a good two day read. I started

early one night and read 2/3rds of it till my battery

ran out about 2 AM, and finished the rest the next

day. Dude is a character who gets in and out of a

lot of bad situations, keeping the reader's interest

throughout. It is well worth your money and time and

unless you have a very good vocabulary it will

stretch your mind as well. It is well worth your

I liked this authors style of writing. His content is about average for westerns. Would read somthing new from him.

This is really good old fashioned western with some fun characters

This is really good old fashioned western with some fun characters. It's very Louis L'Amour-esque, not very long and entertaining through the whole read.
