Denver City Gold

Another great yarn.After all the episodes, No.236 is still a great story.Well written with lots of good old fashioned action.The outcome in this story is never in doubt;but how it all plays out keeps the reader's interest right up to the end.Skye gets thrown off a 300 foot cliff and survived.Anyone who reads this series would not be surprised;read it and find out how he managed to do that.Larry Gatlin sings that "All The Gold In California is in a bank in Beverly Hills " but in 1859 there was lots of it floating around Colorado Territory,some in the river in Nugget,some in the scammer Austin's safe,some in shotgun shells,and everyone wanting to get their hands on it and get rich.What I enjoy about these novels is it gives one a feel of the Wild West only 150 years ago.All greatly exaggerated,I know,but to me a lot more fun than the Sitcoms we get today."Dead Man's Gun" the series produced by Henry Winkler (I think it was Fonzie he played on Happy Days) and narrated by Kris Krisstofferson was super.It's been re-run a couple of times recently;and will surely be around again.Keep an eye out for it. It was really good and much like one of The Trailsman series. Note: the Editorial review shown with this book has nothing to do with Episode No.236,must have been a mix-up.
