The Ballad of Bryan Drayne

(1987)
A novel by

 
 
Roderus paints an exciting picture of a lawless time in Montana/Idaho territory, where a guy's life could be in danger over as little as a piece of lukewarm apple pie. This story is full of both laugh out loud funny and harrowing moments, as Bryan Drayne, a businessman adrift in this wild time, must play a cat-and-mouse game with a band of drunken vigilantes. Roderus spins his yarn with equal parts irony and quick-draw wit, and had me rooting for his unlikely hero.
Lovers of Westerns will appreciate Roderus' smart dialogue and vivid description, full of action and adventure. Recommended for Western fans looking for a quick and exciting read.
