Zane Grey
The Lone Star Ranger is a 1915 Western novel by American author Zane Grey. Set in Texas, the story revolves around the exploits of a band of Texas Rangers and Buck Duane, an outlaw on a quest for redemption. A captain of the Texas Rangers offers him a pardon and a rangers badge if he will infiltrate the gang of the shadowy figure known as Cheseldine who wields vast power in West Texas, and make it possible for the Rangers to break the gangs hold on the regions towns. Duane accepts, never guessing in his wildest nightmares that he would sniff out this Cheseldine, his hideouts, his lieutenants... and fall in love with his daughter! There is plenty of action and gunplay, but The Lone Star Ranger has an emotional and psychological depth that really elucidated the mentality of the lone wolf outlaw and driven Texas ranger.
Louis Joseph Vance
This book is more a study of character than a mysterious genre by which the character is otherwise known. The book begins with the interaction of the characters with a love story, which leads to an unexpected meeting. In the end, there is a surprise involving several characters, but this should be opened by another reader.
Fred M. White

B.M. Bower
B. M. Bower, was an American author who wrote novels, fictional short stories, and screenplays about the American Old West. This is one of her stories. In her prolific career as a writer of many classic Westerns, the most beloved characters ever created by author B. M. Bower were the happy but hardscrabble crew of the Flying U ranch. The Lonesome Trail catches up with the band of cowhands and ranchers as some of them have grown weary of range life and have decided to forge a path for themselves in the big city. Here we meet Will Weary Davidson, his co-workers (known collectively as The Happy Family) and his horse Glory. Glory has a major role to play in this story.
E. Phillips Oppenheim
This is another collection of short stories by Edward Phillips Oppenheim, the prolific English novelist who was in his lifetime a major and successful writer of genre fiction including thrillers and spy novels, and who wrote over a 100 of them. He was the self-styled prince of storytellers, generally regarded as the earliest writer of spy fiction as we know it today, and invented the Rogue Male school of adventure thrillers. His plotting is as smooth as silk, with the virtue of creating believable characters of genuine sophistication and wit. This book is a revenge story with each chapter describing how Mannister takes care of the different people who wronged him. Wonderful entertainment and highly entertaining.
Max Brand
This work is written not in the traditional western spirit. We are talking about a mercenary who guardes the Chandlers shop with a gun. When the marshal himself said that I was no other than the murderer, I told him that I would leave Bostwick and try to start a new life without a gun. This is a great nigga, recommended for those who are looking for something else in the western genre.

Najbardziej ryzykowna gra to ta, w której stawką jest twoje serce. Adalyn Reyes ma idealnie zaplanowany każdy dzień: wstaje o świcie, jedzie do siedziby drużyny piłkarskiej Płomienie Miami, ciężko pracuje, wraca do domu. Kiedy nagranie jej starcia z maskotką drużyny wycieka do internetu i staje się wiralem, ta rutyna się kończy. Właściciel klubu nie zwalnia Adalyn, tylko daje jej nowe zadanie by odzyskać dobre imię, ma odbudować drużynę Zielonych Wojowniczek. Sęk w tym, że klub jest w Karolinie Północnej, zawodniczki trenują w strojach baletowych, hodują kozy i są dziewięciolatkami. Na szczęście w miasteczku przebywa Cameron Caldani, znany bramkarz, który mógłby pomóc Adalyn wprowadzić drużynę do wyższej ligi. Jednak po fatalnym pierwszym spotkaniu (słowa klucze: kogut, zderzak, noga Camerona) dziewczyna raczej nie ma co liczyć na współpracę. Ale jest zdeterminowana, by z niesfornych dzieciaków zrobić gwiazdy piłki nożnej z pomocą Cama lub bez niej. Najbardziej ryzykowna gra to ta, w której stawką jest twoje serce. Nawet na końcu świata gra toczy się dalej! Jeśli małe kózki i przeuroczy Cameron nie przekonają was do sięgnięcia po The Long Game, może zrobią to spicy sceny, które gwarantują wypieki na twarzy! Przyciąganie między bohaterami w książkach Eleny jest nie do podrobienia! Nawet lepienie z gliny może być hot ! Oliwia Panek, @ksia_zkowe Tylko Elena Armas potrafi stworzyć historię, która łamie serce i wyciska z oczu łzy, by po chwili otoczyć ciepłem i wywołać najczulsze uczucia. To się skończy książkowym kacem. I nie mówcie, że nie ostrzegałam! Natalia Miśkowiec, @prostymislowami Pokochałam tę książkę za humor i przewrotną fabułę, ale przede wszystkim za wywołanie ogromu emocji. Kilkukrotnie musiałam przerwać lekturę, aby powstrzymać napływające do oczu łzy. Nieraz do niej wrócę! Karolina Łukawska, @ksiazkidobrejakczekolada Zabawna relacja Adalyn i Camerona bardzo wciąga, sprawiając, że ciężko oderwać się od lektury. Ta historia was wzruszy i rozbawi. I sprawi, że uwierzycie w siebie. Małgorzata Wojtasik, @goszaczyta Czytając tę książkę, przekonacie się, jakie to uczucie mieć nieustannie szalejące motylki w brzuchu oraz uśmiech szczęścia na twarzy. Nigdy nie miałam dość Camerona i Adalyn oraz tego, jakim ciepłem otuliła mnie ich miłość. Elena Armas to królowa slow-burnów, które wywołują szybsze bicie serca!

B.M. Bower

Surely no good when it comes to Flora Bridger, who Billy wants to make his own. B. M. Bower was one of the most prolific and popular writers in the early days of the Western genre, and stories like The Long Shadow explain the authors abiding popularity.

Todays old castle is a mass of ivy-covered picturesque ruins, towering on the seashore and commanding the inner space of one of the most exquisite perspectives in the North. In this elegant house there is something very romantic and charming, protected by a gloomy fortress. For eight hundred years there had been a Castlerayne more or less ruling over these parts. Castlerayne were warriors, deities, statesmen, robbers, in turn. He had great wealth, all the inhabitants of the city envied him, but will his sense of superiority win over others?
