Dully written but an intriguing story nevertheless. The story itself held me, but the simplicity of the writing irritated me. A rare case of the ovie being much better than the book.

Sign me up for this level of violence and action 9/10 times! I enjoyed all but the last 1/4 of this book. Which I could have done without completely. No need to go on about conscience and rightness when you’ve got one of the most bad ass outlaws ever written in Anton Suger!! I needed more of him overall! Gonna be 5/5 highly recommend if you are looking for a violent modern western!

Geen fan van dit boek, en dat is vooral te wijten aan de taal. Dialect doet het niet voor mij in geschreven taal. Een citaat hier en daar voor wat couleur locale kan er nog mee door, maar zowat alle dialoog in dit boek werd 'dialectisch' getranscribeerd. Nah. (Ben wel benieuwd naar de film.)
