Howdy, partners! My Airship 27/New Pulp novel, "Mark Justice's the Dead Sheriff, Vol 4: Purity" is now available for purchase. It sports a gritty cover by Michael Youngblood and ornate interiors by Rob Davis.
For my contribution to Justice's saga, I pulled from "High Plains Drifter", "The Wild Bunch", "Friendly Persuasion" and (I realized in enlightened afterthought) "Wall/Guns for San Sebastian". There are also traces of Sam Raimi, George A. Romero and John Russo's works woven into the plot, plus a salient, Tolkien/"Lord of the Rings" undercurrent to fortify my weird western's fight-or-perish motif.
I trust Vol 4 will please; and as an extra grabber, take a gander at the below Davis illustration spotlighting two of my tale's fearsome foes, Palmer Perdifious and Crabby MacIntosh. Pretty gosh-darn foreboding, eh?

The book really reminds me of The Magnificent 7.
ReplyDeleteI can see that. A lot of westerns do have a fight-or-perish angle. "Magnificent Seven" is a variation on that theme. The same goes for its sequels.
