Deadly Road to Yuma

Blood Bond #13

by William W. Johnstone, J.A. Johnstone

He promises heaven and delivers hell—until two blood brothers answer the prayers of the just. Rip-roaring adventure from the bestselling Western authors.  Young Matt Bodine and Sam Two Wolves became blood brothers on the day the rancher’s son saved the warrior’s life, forging a bond no one could ever break. And as years passed, a legend grew of the Cheyenne and the white man who rode together—and who could jerk killing iron with the best of them . . .  Deadly Road to Yuma   Preacher Joshua Shade has a date with a hangman at Yuma Prison. But Matt Bodine and Sam Two Wolves have a feeling that the madman and killer won’t stick to the schedule. Sure enough, Shade is sprung—and takes a beautiful young woman hostage.   With a gang of fanatical followers, Shade is sure to have his hideout heavily guarded. But Matt and Sam have danced with the devil before—and know that even the coolest outlaw is no match for hot lead. Even when they discover that the federal government has their hands in this case, Matt and Sam are going to make sure that Shade never again sees the light of day . . .  Praise for the novels of William W.

Johnstone does it again

Once again Johnstone does it, by the time you get through the first 2 chapters you are transported back to the old west as an observer, watching another great adventure unfold.

Killing innocent people.

Another great story with Matt and Sam. This story was a little disturbing. When outlaws kill men, women and children with no concern and enjoying it, makes a person wonder what our world is coming to.

[Richard Guerrero · Rating 3 out of 5]

One of my least favorites, lotta action but the storyline just didn’t do it for me. I think maybe my problem is reading this whole series at once. I think I would recommend maybe reading a couple then going to other books then coming back and reading a couple of more.

Not the best work!

There is just something off about the way the story is written. My guess is the AI helped with this story!
I could be wrong, if so then its just a drawn out wordy effort to make a long novel!

Outstanding!

A great story with thrills galore, interesting and spellbinding from start to finish. Good won over evil once again. This is the maestro of the Western genre.

This one was more standard fare, didn't have many 1 liners. Didn't seem to have many gunfights either. Just following the outlaws around and watching them make a plan. It was just ok.

Lots of murder and mayhem.

He writes pretty good.

[Randy · Rating 5 out of 5]

I really enjoyed this one. Matt and Sam take a hand, first in defending a small town from an outlaw gang, then in getting the captured leader to Yuma Prison for the hanging.
Well written and I had a small grin at the name of a deputy in the town.

[Little Timmy · Rating 3 out of 5]

Another good western series by Johnstone. This one follows the adventures of two brothers as they travel the old west. Recommended
