Anne Patkau's Reviews > Death Rattle

X-rated for torture, violence. Series top for shootist. Sam fights on the side of right, whether with Clemson brothers "Ditch" Dave, Paul, Reb guerrillas, Texas Rangers, or Apaches who see "Death Shadow" darkening his soul with evil. Could have been the title. Sometimes good suffer, die.

Pacing revs up tension, even at a standstill. Sam gives 'em a chance if he can. Dialogue varies with person, chief Ranger more 'eddicated' than Dave. Girls hostages, cleaner words.
