Some are predictable, traditional Western stories, but no less fun to read because of that. Many others head off into surprising and new directions. And you, the reader, get to enjoy the incredible, diverse tales 52 of today’s best Western authors, developed from a single shared idea.

Enjoyed Them All…

I found something interesting to take away from each story and enjoyed them all… I have to say my favorite story in the collection, which just nudges out some of the other great entries, was “The Demon Horse” by Michael R. Ritt. I got a great kick out of the ending.
