About this listen

Johnstone country. Wilder than ever.

Welcome to the Lost Coyote Saloon. Saddle up to the bar and order a whiskey. Play a few hands of poker. But don’t make any trouble. The new owner is savage. Ben Savage. Once a Texas Ranger, he’s always cocked and ready for some fool to come looking for payback....

Eat, drink, and be wary

When Ben Savage receives a telegram informing him that an old friend died - and left him his saloon - he’s not sure what to think. Western saloons are as wild as it gets, full of rowdy ranchers and cocky cowboys, high-stakes gamblers and low-life drifters, hard liquor and easy women. Then there’s the occasional outlaw gang. But when Savage travels to Buzzard’s Bluff, Texas, to check out his inheritance, he meets the saloon’s lovely manager, Rachel Baskin, and has a change of heart.

As an experienced lawman, he figures he can run a decent establishment. Keep things friendly, peaceful, and orderly. There’s just one problem: a rival saloon owner wants Savage out of the way so he can control all the vice in town. And some of his men are bound to turn up in his saloon - thirsty for whiskey...and killing....

Enjoyable Story

The author and narrator did a great job in bringing this story to life. The best way I can demonstrate how much I enjoyed the book, is to share with everyone that I just purchased the second series - “The Devil’s Boneyard”, Ben Savage, Book 2.

LOVED THIS BOOK. NOT A LOT OF VIOLENCE, BUT LOT’S OF DO GOOD ACTION

This is a Western that’s definitely written for women who enjoy westerns. And for men who like a kind, bighearted hero. This one was free, I can’t wait to find the next in the series, and I’ll be happy to pay for it.
This book was everything I’d like. Particularly in the ending. We knew that spare room existed and that Annie was walking a mile and a half home, but they twisted the ending to even something better.
This book will leave you feeling good. I love a lot of Johnstone’s books, But sometimes the action can be so heavy it’s too much for me. I mean I love the first Mountain Man series, but damn was it hard to take. This book was a pleasure!

a lighter read for western lovers

it's a decent story a tad unfocused in my opinion with just a little too much going on at once. The version of the west is a tad romantised and I can't say it really left me with any thought proking messages. But that isn't necessarily to it's detriment. Not everything has to be deep and this was honestly just a fun and light read for those who love the western genre.

SLOW BURN

Story is a slow burn. As it goes on it gets better and better. The action is good but at times subtle. Definitely recommend!

another series, another good vs evil battle

nice start to a new series....seems like the good guys are people we need to know in our day and age. we know too well the greedy, power hungry and corrupt people all to well. It is the good giys that are ridiculed and libelled by the media these days. looking forward to fiture episodes.

I was not thrilled with the narrators voices, and some of the context was goofy.

So many of the voices sounded like they were the same. And I’m sorry that I feel like the narrator tried too hard. He didn’t have a really firm grasp on voices. I couldn’t listen to the whole thing and finally let my cat listen to it twice to keep him busy. I don’t think he liked it either.

I felt like this person, whoever wrote this, definitely not a Johnstone was new at writing. The conversations were just off. I think I would have enjoyed it even with the stilted writing had the narrator been a little bit more accustomed to his work. They should get J. Rodney Turner to do these books.
