4.0 out of 5 stars Weird Western Tales, February 27, 2006
This review is from: Texas Night Riders (Hardcover)
Lansdale is one of the masters of the weird western tale. After reading a Lansdale western, you will want for the same in every western you will ever read. The only writer who has ever come close has been Ed Gorman, and his westerns aren't even weird, just good.

This outing was originally published under the name Ray Slater, and was reprinted (or perhaps printed for the first time, as I have never seen an actual "Ray Slater version") under the Lansdale name by Cemetery Dance in a limited edition. A very short novel about a gunslinging priest who barracades himself in a church to protect a small group of people and a child from some gun toting baddies.

Nice and short, a quick read, and a good taste of early Lansdale. If I remember correctly, he wrote it in a matter of days in order to enter it in a contest.
