Synopsis

His name is Dan Barry, and they call him "the Manslayer." His best friend is a savage wolf-dog no other man can touch. They say his gun is faster than summer lightning and has never missed its mark. They say no bullet yet cast can kill him. His lifeblood is danger, and it flows with the cool recklessness of a surging mountain stream.Some say he is a wild man, some say he is a ghost. But one thing they agree on: once you cross Dan Barry there are only two things left to do—buy your wife widow's weeds and order a pine box that fits your measurements.

Goodreads review by Andie on October 22, 2021

There's such an incredible wealth of skilled authors from previous eras who get lost to the memory of time when it comes to recognition of their work. Frederick Schiller Faust, better known by one of his more recognizable pen names, Max Brand, is one such author. This guy is one helluva writer. He w......more

The books are of the old west à la Zane Grey except Max Brand has a much better command of both language and technique. He has an excellent knowledge of horsemanship which especially appeals to me as well as huma......more
