From Saddlebag Dispatches Magazine, the Award-Winning Home of All Things Western, comes Between Hell and Tombstone, a new anthology bringing you the best of the untamed west. Paul Colt, Anthony Wood, and P.A. O’Neil headline a roster of western writers including old hands like J.R. Wolff and Alex Slusar but with a great selection of newer talent such as David Bowmore, Julianne Metzger Taylor, and Megan McCain. Walk with them down the dusty streets of Tombstone to the O.K. Corral or the Bird Cage Theatre. Ride the revenge trail with Wyatt and Doc. Hide in the shadows hoping your young bride can clear your name. Make the perilous journey through Apache country from Fort Huachuca to anywhere. This is a land where, as Kipling wrote, “the ’eat could make your bloomin’ eyebrows crawl,” where a summer monsoon can wash away everything in its path, and where life is cheap and a bullet is cheaper. Between Hell and Tombstone will grab you with an iron grip and shake you like a dog with a bone. Just try to put it down.
