About the author

Tabor Evans is the author of the long-running Longarm western series, featuring the adventures of Deputy U.S. Marshal Custis Long. Tabor Evans, is a house pseudonym used by a number of authors. The pseudonym of Tabor Evans would begin in the 1970s when Lou Cameron established it for the Jove Books publishing label. Lou Cameron helped create the character and wrote a number of the early books in the series. The first book was published in 1978. Other authors known to have written books in the series include Melvin Marshall, Will C. Knott, Frank Roderus, Chet Cunningham, J. Lee Butts, Gary McCarthy, James Reasoner, Jeffrey M. Wallmann, Peter Brandvold and Harry Whittington. In addition there are 29 "Giant" editions published as well.

The Longarm series is a mainstay of the "adult western" genre which arose in the 1970s. These books are distinguished from classical westerns by the inclusion of more explicit sex and violence.

Reviews

[Malum · Rating 5 out of 5]

One of my favorite Longarm novels so far, this one ghostwritten by William C. Knott (who also wrote the very good Longarm and the Avenging Angels up to this point in the series). This one has lots of twists and turns, maybe a few too many characters (but I won't hold that against it), and a mystery that makes you think you have solved it when you probably haven't.

Volume 6 of the Longarm series picks up on the graphic sex and maintains the violence level of the previous volumes

Longarm is a good, quick read and this volume is no different. Good for a weekend read.
