About this listen
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.

Story
“Adventure,” L. Ron Hubbard said, “I well know, is in the heart, not in the view.” In his stories, which were uniquely drawn from true-to-life experiences, including then-rare voyages to Asia and the South Pacific, he adventured grandly, carrying readers into the cold, storm-swept sea, or the heat of a vast desert or the wild currents of the air. A member of the famed Explorers Club, Mr. Hubbard delivered in these stories a sharp jolt of reality with a healthy dose of pulse-pounding bold adventure.

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

Story
Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

Story
Who is Audrey Hoedemaker? It's a question her sister Maureen has heard more times than she can count, and she doesn't know what the short answer would be. Little sister, troubled teen, backpacker, musical theatre coach, con artist, childcare worker. Murderer. A tragic, traumatic childhood casts a long shadow on the Hoedemaker sisters. Maureen has worked hard to move beyond the violence of the past and build a good, honest life for herself. Audrey, however, just can't seem to do the same, careening from one state of chaos to another.

Story
Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

Story
It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs. And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.

King of pulp
I’m really enjoying JRH’s early works. He’s one hell of a writer. This is so much better than his later work, like Battlefield Earth. This is short, fast paced and vivid. I recommend it.
