Powder Smoke : A Western Duo

This book is comprised of two novellas, the title one and The Son of the Wolf. Both are excellent stories. In Powder Smoke we have a young cowboy accused of murdering his older brother, and his former boss, Powder Smoke Peters sets out to find the real killer. Son of the Wolf introduces us to Wolf Blaine, a heartless rancher who will kill his competitors if he can't buy them out. Both are traditional stories of the west dealing with the usual type of situations westerns are known for. But that in no way diminishes them; for they are good stories and well worth reading. In fact, I have not found any Colt MacDonald books not worth reading, and his Three Mesquiteers stories which were made into movies, some of which starred a young John Wayne are considered classic. I can say the same for his Gregory Quist, Railroad Detective stories. I say buy 'em if you can find 'em! And enjoy!
