Spurr Morgan: A Western Double by Peter Brandvold

Spurr Morgan: A Western Double Reviews

• 
  Jeff Benham

  Spur Morgan is an old, very old, Deputy US Marshal. He is too ornery to die and too stubborn to retire. He is still smarter than the gangs he goes after, who are dumber than a bunch of rocks. The up and coming young deputies he has to work with are one notch ahead of the gangs in the smarts department.

  Peter Brandvold – Spurr Morgan: Western Double – Reviewed 5/26/20 – Read 5/20-22/20
  Spurr Morgan was an old law dawg, always protecting the innocent's, now he’s after Vultures, lookout varmints he is now on your back trail!!!
  
  After his gang, the Vultures, broke Clell Stanhope out of jail just before he was to be hanged. Stanhope and his band of killers went on a shooting spree killing everyone that was in the posse that captured him. Just as he was going to shoot Sheriff Dusty Mason, a shot rang out, and the gang took off leaving Dusty as the only survivor of the posse. As the cutthroats travel to their hideout they raided another small town and killed the law, plus others, kidnapping two of their women. A soiled dove named Trixie and the widow Erin Wilde, owner of the mercantile. After Clell and his men ransacked the town, killed Erin’s young son, and grabbed her, they took off again.
  
  Meanwhile, Mason had sent telegrams to the Marshall’s office requesting Spurr Morgan, also another one to the Pinkertons. He wanted them to help him track down the varmints that had done this to his town and many others. As the men met up they hit the trail, only to meet up with a group of townsfolks burying their dead... Erin Wilde’s town of Sweetwater. Now the law has even more reason to find these low down sowbellies! They needed to catch up with the Vultures soon and rescue the womenfolk.
  
  Spurr Morgan: A Western Double includes – The Last Lawman and The Old Wolves.
  
  What did I like? Well, first off Spurr has been a character in some of Peter’s other books, and I have this picture in my mind’s eye of him. As you know, I think he looks just like Sam Elliott… Now melt in your toes women, cause he is on the trail again. This is a tough one as he has really aged but is still looking fine in my eye. Troubled more with his heart than in the past but he still can track with the best of them. Aged just like fine wine and honed with the skill of a master! My heart ached every time he went through a spell, and he was put to the test of his job, but as always he did what others didn’t think he could. He was and still is the best!
  
  What will you like? I don’t want you to think that this is going to be a slow read or that there will be no action. Far from it! Spurr and all of the good guys live up to the reputation of the men of the west. Unbelievable action made even more dramatic due to Spurr’s age. All of the men are put to the test of skills while tracking these coyotes! The storyline is unique and fantastic with each character having its own incredible space for action and tense situations. The ending will just blow your mind. I loved it… I was looking for something over the top and Peter pulled it off. Don’t miss this amazing read, available now.

  Gritty, hard- hitting, no fluff western
  
  Just when you think the gritty nature of the book has gotten bad, you'll find the author was just starting! There's no fluffy romance, flowers, and love in this book unless you consider that everyone needs someone, something, and some time in life to think of those things to love. At many points I figured the story had come to a natural ending, yet it continued. When I thought the detail was just a tad bit too descriptive, the author pulled it back. The scenes, plot, and characters were very well developed. I think I'll be smelling the gun powder myself for some time to come!

  Two rambling tales about a Wiley old Marshal with more lives than the Wiley Coyote!
  
  Old Spurr spells his name with 2rr's cause he double rough and ready. Spurr travels far and wide bringing in outlaws for the Denver Regional Marshal's office. And maybe, just maybe, he's found a place to call home and a woman to snuggle beside in retirement.

  Spurr Morgan
  
  A lot of action in this book. Spurr did a great job as a lawman even if he was an older man. Lots of experience in hunting the bad guys down. Thank you Peter Brandvold for an awesome read.

  GREAT DOUBLE FEATURE!
  
  Another excellent rough and tumble double feature western by Peter Brandvolt... Spur Morgan eases his frail heart condition by taking nitro pills which he chases with whiskey. It jump starts him several times in both of these adventure novels.
  RECOMMENDED!

  Action packed Western
  
  A well written and fast moving Western. This writer knows how to keep his readers turning the pages. It is filled with action and suspense. I can always look forward to reading his novels. I highly recommend his novels.

  Except buffeting. You are NOT using that word correctly!
  As an oldie myself I could really understand how Spurr feels.
