[DL] Pretty hefty (and overall favourable) review on rpg.net
http://www.rpg.net/news+reviews/reviews/rev_3473.html
A few gems from the review:
Hensley uses humorous asides and irreverent expressions which will make you
laugh out loud, and his dry, laconic language runs in every sentence, making
the book a joy to read, and making his tone echo in every game you play.
This argot also crosses over brilliantly to the mechanics and character
sheet (skills, for example, listed as "Shootin'" and "Fightin'"), and you
and your players will be drawling out Western aphorisms like "git off ma
shootin' iron, yew varmint" and "yew shore are durn purty, Miss Scarlet"
within moments.
From the first line of the book, where Hensely dedicates it to all game
masters, this book is a rare gem of writing skill in an industry plagued
with far too many dreary drudges.
yes, this is a game with quite a few faults, but durn it, it is FUN.
