Book Description

Gunsmoke March 1, 1999
On his deathbed, rancher Adam Dawson announced to his closest friends that he had cut his no-good son Nick out of his will. But Nick is as cunning as he is cruel, and will do anything to get his inheritance. As soon as the prodigal son rides into town, Abe's friend quickly begin following him to the grave. Now Matt must race against time -- to prove Nick is the culprit before Dodge City turns into a ghost town.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing in characterizaion, February 21, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Gunsmoke 2: Dead Man's Witness (Paperback)
Having grown up with "Gunsmoke," I was excited about the prospect of reading stories featuring the characters of the series. I expected something similar to the books that use the "Star Trek" characters in which relationships are explored and developed, where the past is explained and there is an effort to carry on continuity in the characters' lives. This is the second in the series and so far, it appears that the author doesn't seem to care about Matt, Miss Kitty and Doc because he doesn't seem to know much about them. In the first book of the series, Festus even reads a newpaper. In the second, Matt actually asks Kitty to marry him? The plots, although fairly standard, aren't objectionable. The characterization is what is off the mark. I hope the series continues but maybe the author should watch some more reruns.

2.0 out of 5 stars Dillon was a UNITED STATES marshal !, April 12, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Gunsmoke 2: Dead Man's Witness (Paperback)
For Gunsmoke fans who crave tidbits of romantic verbal interplay between Matt and Kitty, this book is worth the reading. However, there are glaring character discrepancies, such as Festus's accent, grammar, and ability to read. Worse was the major plot device which contended that Matt was a lawman chosen by the town council and thus could be dismissed by them!

3.0 out of 5 stars Too good grammar, January 25, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Gunsmoke 2: Dead Man's Witness (Paperback)
For those of you who enjoyed the Gunsmoke show, you will enjoy the book as well. For those who were and are complete fans of the show and can't get enough, you may not like the book as well. The story is quite good, but the characters speak close to perfect english at times, making the book less believable. I would like to see more development of the main characters and perhaps we will see that is future books. I hope there are more.
