A propos de l'auteur

Jory Sherman was born in Minnesota and grew up in West Texas, Louisiana, and Colorado. He was a magazine editor for a time and had some of his work published, including some poetry, short stories and articles. Sherman had a friend who owned a publishing company and asked him to write a novel for afficher plus the company. From that offer came five more novels, all written in one year. He wrote the supernatural mystery series, "Chill," which was somewhat revolutionary for the times, but which earned him an eight book contract. He then came up with the idea for "Rivers West," a series which had each book written by a different western author. Then came the "Baron Saga," the first of which was "Grass Kingdom" which earned Sherman a nomination for the Pulitzer Prize in Letters. Sherman has also won the Spur Award for his contribution to Western Literature. (Bowker Author Biography) afficher moins

Help 4 writers : scene & story ; work book par Jory Sherman

Local author of over 400 titles, mainly westerns, but has done just about every genre, provides guidance and advice to beginning writers.

Lee is currently writing a book, so I'm giving this to him. May it be of help.

Dawn of Revenge par J. Sherman

This is a classic all action revenge Western, not in the old fashioned sanitized Hollywood style, though that is not a complaint, but a blood soaked spaghetti Western style.
The action is full blooded and gut wrenching at times, with gory descriptions of the damage bullets do to a body, and almost non stop. The characterisations are quality, and the hero everything you look for. Well written descriptive and exciting. What more could you ask. I look forward to Gunn's further adventures.

Be warned described as an adult Western, firstly for the violence, secondly for several seriously raunchy sex scenes.
