The Reckoning: A Jess Williams Novel

So, I'm usually not a fan of western movies, but a family member read the book and told me I should check it out, and so I decided to try and read it, at first it's like any other book where it's slow, but then it started to get really interesting and then it got to the point where I didn't want to put the book down; at times I had to force myself to not look at the end of the book to see if this person lives or not or to see what happened. I loved the book, and I know if I was to recommend a western book it would have to be this one.

It was quite a surprise to find a western novel that was not just another western. This one has something more to it, especially with the special gun and holster that mysteriously shows up. This is one raw tale of revenge, much more so than any western I've read before. It reminds me of the movies Appaloosa and Open Range.

I've always been a fan of western movies, but never really any western books. Well that all changed when I picked up The Reckoning. This is a face paced, action packed western that is a great read from cover to cover. It has great characters and a superb ending. If you are into westerns at all, or even if you're not, pick up this book and you won't regret it.

I'm not usually a big western reader, but the Reckoning changed that! My favorite part of the book is the tough talk between the Gunslingers when it is time to "throw down!" I can't wait to find out if Jess's brother is "friend or foe" in "My Brother's Keeper".

"The Reckoning" is amazingly written. A gut wrenching story of a young boy's Revenge for the death of his father, Rape and murder of his mother and sister. Armed with his fathers colt peacemaker and a mysterious gun and holster, Jess Williams becomes the fastest and most accurate draw in the west. I highly recomend this great book.
