Shadow of the Grizzly - A Clint Ryan Western

The charecters are also enjoyable, whether good or evil on I am not a huge fan of Westerns, but Shadow of the Grizzly is one I would revisit.
The charecters are also enjoyable, whether good or evil one may take their pick. Often times you can guess what the outcome of certain things will be, but, for reasons I have already stated, that is in no wise a con.

The only thing I might not have liked were certain veiws of one of the charecters toward the very end of the book, but since this is not a review containing spoilers I shan't elaborate. A slow start, an engaging middle, and an almost totaly satisfactory ending make this book one to be read indeed. Unless of course, you have a deep-rooted hatred for Westerns.
