#ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEIRD WEST HOW TO#
Instead of jumping into writing my review and moving on to the next story, I had to take a bit of a break, figure out my feelings and how to get them down into proper, understandable words. It had an emotional punch that left me reeling for a while. “Whatever it takes to keep you motivated through the night.”” “Why, here I thought you were an upstanding young gentleman.” ““How about this – you get everyone on that damned list done today, then come back here, and I'll make it worth your while.” I would definitely read more of these characters and this world, without hesitation. I loved the characterisation and originality. Adding in extensive attention to detail, a well thought out plot and timing, with the added paranormal element, this story packed a punch. After a brief mention of scalping, attacks on postal routes and the authors incredible gift for world building, we're immediately settled into the desert scenery, in the middle of nowhere. ** I WAS GIVEN THIS BOOK FOR MY READING PLEASURE **Ĭombining some of the biggest names in MM fiction into one anthology, Once Upon a Time in the Weird West is a keeper!
