Publisher's Summary

Ride a trail of blazing guns and two-fisted action in the Wild West as L. Ron Hubbard brings American history to life. Growing up in Montana provided him with the first-hand experience that added a tone of authenticity to his western tales. Listeners will feel the heat, taste the dust, and hear the thunder of horses’ hooves in these tales from a master storyteller of the genre.

This 5-audiobook collection includes 14 short stories for 10 hours of immersive entertainment. All audiobooks are unabridged, full-cast productions with cinematic quality sound effects that bring the stories and characters to vivid life.

Titles and short stories in the Western Short Stories Collection Vol 2 include: Devilʼs Manhunt (with: “Johnny, the Town Tamer” and “Stranger in Town”), Toughest Ranger (with: “The Ranch That No One Would Buy” and “Silent Pards”), Shadows from Boot Hill (with: “The Gunner from Gehenna” and “Gunman!”), Death Waits at Sundown (with: “Ride ’Em, Cowboy” and “Boss of the Lazy B”), and Gun Boss of Tumbleweed (with: “Blood on His Spurs”).

You will love this collection because, as True West Magazine describes, they are “Westerns with the flair of a Louis L’Amour or Zane Grey.” And Booklist compares Mr. Hubbard to “notable western writers as Max Brand, T.T. Flynn, and Alan LeMay.”

Book Descriptions:

Devilʼs Manhunt: Striking gold, Tim Beckdolt is a man on the brink of a new life. When a killer jumps his claim and forces him to mine the remainder, Tim tries to flee. Soon he’s being pursued in a bloodthirsty manhunt through vicious terrain. Performed by: R.F. Daley (narrator), Michelle Stafford, Rick Pasqualone, Michael Yurchak, and Jim Meskimen.

Toughest Ranger: Gun-shy cowboy Petey McGuire, has been kicked around all of his life. Faced with starvation, he bluffs his way into a job with the rough-’n’-tumble Arizona Rangers. But when he’s chosen to hunt the most dangerous desperado in the state, Petey’s forced to discover what it really means to be ranger-tough. Performed by: R.F. Daley (narrator), Christina Huntington, Jim Meskimen, John Mariano, Fred Tatasciore, Tait Ruppert, and Enn Reitel.

Shadows from Boot Hill: Outlaw Brazos races to take a “hit job” from Whisper Monahan. But things soon take a supernatural spin when Brazos acquires another shadow after killing a witch doctor, who, with his last breath, swears a deadly curse upon his soul. Performed by: R.F. Daley (narrator), Phil Proctor, Fred Tatasciore, Tait Ruppert, Jim Meskimen, John Mariano, and Corey Burton.

Death Waits at Sundown: Lynn Taylor is a hard-riding, two-fisted Texan who isn’t interested in depriving the town of Pioneer of its necktie party—he just wants to save his wrongly accused brother and substitute another victim. Performed by: R.F. Daley (narrator), Fred Tatasciore, Shannon Evans, Michael Yurchak, Jim Meskimen, Phil Proctor, and Tamra Meskimen.

Gun Boss of Tumbleweed: Mart Kincaid is a man forced to act as a gunhawk for a man he bitterly hates in order to protect his family … at least until he’s driven to bring matters to a fiery six-gun showdown. Performed by: R.F. Daley (narrator), Luke Baybak, Jim Meskimen, Michael Yurchak, Tamra Meskimen, Rick Pasqualone, Corey Burton, and Taylor Meskimen.

Critic Reviews

“Nonstop action with a Mark Twain twist.”—True West Magazine

“Bears comparison to such notable western writers as Max Brand, T.T. Flynn and Alan LeMay.”—Booklist

“While there’s no shortage of heroes and villains, the story remains blessedly free of stereotypes. Pure pulp adventure—in the best way!—from start to finish.”—Audiofile Magazine
