Summary: Bad Luck is the Only Luck
Review: For Arlo Wells and Dallas Holt if they did not have bad luck they would not have any luck at all. They are ex-cowpunchers looking for the goose who layed the golden egg. They deliver a wagon load of whiskey to the owner of a saloon, but he dies before he pays them, so they take over the saloon for payment, but it burns down after a bar brawl.
An old friend sends them half a map to a gold mine bonanza and asks them to share it with his nieces. However the girls miserable stepfather has the other half of the map and the girls and he doesn't want to share. The bad luck just continues all the way to the end.

Summary: Skeleton Lode
Review: I thought the book had a very good tale. At verious spots in this book one might think that they have it figgured out, all of the sudden another twist pops up, and you are off again. The two mex guides keep you guessing where and when they will pop up, and with who. You have a laid back sheriff, helpfull town folk, many bad guys, good guys ect... What I thought was the clincher was DAVIS, who would of thought he would come out of the caves? more or less the way he did. Then the ending, wow. I have read all but three of the books listed on this site, and I think this one was by far the best. Not to say I did not like the others, I still do.
