About this audiobook
Every man walks with a shadow ... but what happens when he acquires a second one? Just ask Brazos who's a cold-blooded killer for hire with blood on his hands and a posse on his tail.
Desperate for cash, Brazos accepts $200 to gun down a local man named Brant. He'll earn every penny ... but in the end there'll be the devil to pay. Because to put a bullet in Brant means putting one in his partner as well—an eerie stranger schooled in the black art of witchcraft. This is one killing that brings with it a deadly curse—and a second shadow.
As Brazos is about to discover, the Wild West doesn't get any wilder than when a man is damned to live—and die—in the Shadows from Boot Hill.
Also includes the Western adventures The Gunner from Gehenna, in which a plot to steal a miner's gold reveals how a good man can go bad ... and a bad man can do good; and Gunman!, the story of an aging gunfighter turned lawman who shows his town what a real man is made of.
L. Ron Hubbard
With 19 New York Times bestsellers and more than 350 million copies of his works in circulation, L. Ron Hubbard is among the most enduring and widely read authors of our time. As a leading light of American Pulp Fiction through the 1930s and '40s, he is further among the most influential authors of the modern age. Indeed, from Ray Bradbury to Stephen King, there is scarcely a master of imaginative tales who has not paid tribute to L. Ron Hubbard. Then too, of course, there is all L. Ron Hubbard represents as the Founder of Dianetics and Scientology and thus the only major religion born in the 20th century.

Reviews for Shadows from Boot Hill
5 ratings1 review
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This was a great story! A supernatural western with lots of action. Hubbard's story was first published in 1940 at a time when westerns were commonplace. Will Murray (of Doc Savage fame) notes on the back cover blurb that supernatural westerns were rare. Hubbard's westerns were especially popular and this one was no exception. This reprint from Galaxy Press is the sixth western from the pulp era. The bonus stories are "The Gunner From Gehenna" and "Gunman!" I recommend all of L. Ron Hubbard's classic pulp westerns! Great fun! If you enjoyed this book you will also enjoy Cargo of Coffins, Golden Hell, Hostage to Death and many others!
