Review:
"This is an entertaining romp, nicely leavened with the author's considerable wit." - Booklist Review
"From the opening episode's rollicking stage coach robbery, THREE LEGGED HORSE stampedes along with a series of adventures for the young protagonist, Justin Bodean, making his first trip out west. His ensuing encounters with Comanche warriors, outlaws and Texas Rangers will test his mettle and the courage of his unlikely companions, including a preacher and a novelist from back east. Russ Hall has created a page-turner that is full of tension and fun with great dialogue and character development." Mike Blakely, former president of Western Writers of America and Spur Award winner of western books such as Summer of Pearls and Comanche Dawn
"Written with wry humor in exciting and gritty language, this dangerous adventure includes a treasure hunt, characters who are not what they seem, even potential romance. A wonderful suspense filled tale." DogsMom
