5.0 out of 5 stars Not Your Run-of-the-Mill Shoot'em Up, January 24, 1999

Outrage at Blanco is Bill Crider at his best. The characters are real and engaging. Their growth throughout the plot makes them believable. The reader is at once sympathetic and outraged when ruthless outlaws ravage first Ellie Taine's body by raping her, and then her home by killing her husband. As Ellie moves from being the victim to the hunter one cannot help but want to tag along. The rejuvenation of long-ill Jonathon Crossland lets the reader's own heart leap. A must read for all Crider fans and western enthusiasts.
