Lee Walker's Gun Law is sitting on my 'To Read' pile too.

Wow, looks like a great collection. Love the title, and the story titles. And the cover definitely looks like Clint from The Outlaw Josey Wales days.

"Wales ain't a hard man to track. Leaves dead men wherever he goes."

The cover of A Fistful of Legends looks fantastic and can't wait to get my hands on a copy. Like most of the contributors have already said, it really is exciting being involved in this project and I am genuinely honoured to be included among so many other talented and experienced western writers.

Last week I received six pristine copies of Gun Law from Robert Hale and it was a real thrill finally holding the final result in my hands - it also means Christmas is sorted out for family and friends!

Thanks to everybody who's bought Gun Law and looking forward to constructive feedback on my first Black Horse Western (be gentle, guys...)
