Devil's Deal Published

 

Hi all,

 

I logged on to my blogspot today and couldn't believe that it has been nearly a year since I last made an entry! Amazing how time flies. Anyway, I though today would be a good day to restart the blog.

 

This morning, the postman arrived with copies of Devil's Deal. It's always an amazing thrill when you hold the finished product in your hands and as always, this did not disappoint.

The story is about  Ethan Van Kirk who was an ace Confederate sharp-shooter during the Civil War.  Now the war is over, all he wants to do is lead a quiet life on his homestead with his eight year old daughter, Lucy - but the past will not leave him in peace. He is plagued by nightmares and his worst fears come to life when he meets an old officer from his army days. Suddenly, he finds himself caught up in a plot to assinate a Senator and is forced to use his deadly shooting skills again in a deal with the Devil. Ethan must kill an innocent man to save his daughters life.

 

And the clock is ticking... 

 

Devil's Deal is published by Robert Hale Ltd and is available in libraries and Amazon. 

Pay Dirt - Western Fiction Review

The following review of my most recent book, Pay Dirt was posted on Western Fiction Review.

At last Lee Walker’s second BHW has appeared. After reading his first, Gun Law, I was looking forward to this one. The book starts with a horrific prologue, which explains the animosity between brothers Jim and Michael Payne. The story then jumps forward a number of years and the reader joins Jim as he arrives in Golden Gulch. It isn’t long before he finds himself confronting Craven and becomes a target for the conman’s hired guns. Lee Walker has come up with a great bunch of characters that are a pleasure to read about.

The story moves forward quickly and is filled with well-written action scenes that paint vivid images within the mind. The final blazing showdown takes up a good portion of the book and provides an exciting conclusion to the story.

Lee Walker is a pseudonym used by Ed Ferguson, and he writes in an easy to read style that defies you to put the book down before the end. Once more, like after finishing Gun Law,
I’m left looking forward to the third western from Lee Walker.

Preview of Pay Dirt Cover!

It's always an exciting moment when you see the artwork for your forthcoming book for the first time; and this did not disappoint!

Thanks to all at Robert Hale for consistently coming up with exciting and eye-catching front cover designs. They may not always relate directly to the plot but hopefully, they capture the excitement and pace of the story and give the reader a flavour of what they've come to expect from a Black Horse Western.

Pay Dirt should be available in January 2012 and I look forward to holding a pristine copy in my hands.

Gun Law Now In Large Print Edition!

Gun Law is now available in large print courtesy of Linford Western Library, an imprint of F.A. Thorpe. It was officially released on Amazon yesterday.

A couple of days ago, a parcel was delivered with three complimentary copies and I must admit, it was a real thrill to hold this new edition in my hands.

I look forward to seeing it in libraries soon!

Gun Law - Now Listed on Amazon and Ready for Pre-Orders!

Holy smoke!

I was looking at some other Black Horse Westerns last night and decided just to punch 'Gun Law' in for a search and lo and behold the image of my new book came up! The official launch date is not until sometime in December so I was surprised to see it listed for pre-order.

Time to take a leaf out of Jack Martin's book and get moving with some marketing activity and spreading the word!

Feel free to order it through your local library!
