Beyond Billy the Kid

A lean, grimy re-casting of the 'Billy the Kid' myth, with a buck-toothed psychopath playing the lead black hat. Our hero, sherif Calvin Taylor (this is third in a series of four Calvin Taylor books) tries to close down the kid's criminal pastimes and maximum damage ensues.'The Arizona Kid's' brusque and brutal prose will delight fans of the well-told tale. The desert setting leaves your mouth dust dry, the violence is vivid and squirm inducing. If McBride's stories can't bring the western back to life then someone better call an undertaker.
