NIGHTFALL AT LITTLE ACES

Border bandits, gunslinging rangers, and unrequited lovers populate Cotton's action-packed Western. Staying true to its genre, NIGHTFALL AT LITTLE ACES is full of gritty characters, isolated desert scenery, and lots of riveting action. It's no wonder Cotton's fans are wishing for a movie adaptation of this book. Narrator George Guidall sounds like a seasoned cowboy, but his narration style isn't overstated. Guidall reads like a relaxed storyteller, his dialogue unembellished with minimal variations between characters. He keeps the action sequences—whether a karate kick to the jaw or a trailside shoot-out—packed with violent tension. Those who prefer skilled and subtle readings will delight in Guidall's performance. J.T. © AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine [Published: FEBRUARY 2009]
