Apaloosa

This is a masterfully crafted book, typical of Robert B. Parker's style (eg: Double Play). The dialogue is punchy and the descriptive passages, though sparse, are richly evocative of the times. It's not so much a western as a story about a particular kind of relationship between two freelance...

A guilty pleasure

This novel is insubstantial but very entertaining. Parker keeps the plot running pretty fast and the first person narrator, Hitch, is pleasurably familiar, comfortable and likeable. You instantly like the guy, know where he's coming from. Fans of the Spenser series will find Hitch's dialogue with...

Gunslinger trilogy

The sequels to "Appaloosa," - "Resolution," and "Brimstone," are out with Audio Download. I liked them. Good story's, quick tight shootouts. Ms Allison French is as dirty as they come. Audiobooks are a decent length.Titus Welliver, who is perfect for the role, narrated the trilogy. I like...

wild west beach read

I don't often read westerns, but I wanted to read Robert B. Parker's Appaloosa before seeing the movie. Parker may not be Larry McMurtry, but he knows how to spin a good yarn about the wild west. I especially loved the dialog; it sounded like Sam Elliott doing a Coors commercial. Everett Hitch,...

See it at the Library

Again, like my review of the movie, it is really 3 and one-half stars. . .This was the first Robert B. Parker book I've ever read cover to cover. Yes, despite all the Spenser books out there, I never read one, though I was a fan of the TV Show, Spenser for Hire. I obtained a used Hardback...

A Rich, Character-based Western

This book's awesome. These old West peacekeepers walk the same metaphorical mean streets as Parker's other tough guys, like Spenser, Hawk, and Jesse Stone, dusty as the streets in the town of Appaloosa may be. The familiar Parker themes are all here, the honor and friendship between men, the...
