Saddle Tramp by Clint Hawkins
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I was surprised to find i am the first to leave a review of any of this ‘Saddle Tramp’ series. I came across 4 in the series just a week ago and thought I’d give the first in the series a spin. The first is not a stand out book. A pretty typical western that has less plot than gun fire.
The main character, Wade Calhoun, is quickly identified as the series title says. As would happen to a rover, he arrives in a town, something happens and the gun fire soon follows. Pretty simple character, plot and story. The writing is OK. The settings are OK. The other characters are standard.
For a reader of classics, this book will likely be burned for it’s relatively empty content. For others it is a fun little way to pass the day.
Bottom line: i recommend this book. 5 out of 10 points.
