Bloody Season


Bloody Season - Loren Estleman

The Gunfight at the OK Corral has been the subject of so many westerns that like Custer at the LBH it makes up its own genre. What makes the take in Bloody Season (1999) unique and worth reading is the hardboiled realism of the style and tone and details involving stinks of the Olde West. The Earp vs. Clanton feud comes off as a gang war for turf between two ruthless groups of thugs.
