ebook Werewolf Max Brand

You don’t get a much more evocative opening than that for a Western novella called „Werewolf”, and the story lives up to both its title and that opening in ways you won’t expect from Max Brand who did write some fantastic fiction. On that bitter night Chris Royal walks into Yates Saloon to escape the storm where Cliff Main, gun happy brother of killer Harry Main, is looking for trouble over a girl both like. Words are exchanged, and there is the smell of cordite in the air. Cliff Main is dead and Chris Royal alive. At least until Harry Main comes to avenge his dead brother... It is a part Western revenge story, part tale of redemption of man and dog, part dog story with a rousing good adventure story set in the more or less modern West. Highly recommended, especially for those who love this genre!
