THE QUEST FOR BOWIE’S BLADE
BY J. T. EDSON

The task seemed simple enough to the Ysabel Kid. All he had to do was ride into Mexico, find the man who had killed James Bowie at the Alamo and ask him to return Bowie’s legendary knife to its rightful owners. Nothing simpler — or so the Kid thought. . . .

But before the job was through he had locked horns with some mighty bad hombres. Men like Manos Grande, the fearsome Yaqui war chief; Silk, a dude but also a lightning fast killer; and Juan Eschuchador, as mean a bandido as ever slit a throat. And then there were the women, real tough ladies like Belle Boyd, the rebel spy working for the U.S. Secret Service or Belle Starr, the outlaw — but at least they were on the Kid’s side — or were they?

SUDDEN - THE LAW O’ THE LARIAT
BY OLIVER STRANGE

The word had filtered out that Sudden was dead — and there was no one around to contradict it. Men who had cringed before, swaggered now; others boasted of their encounters with Sudden, the coward.

Only one man stayed quiet: a tall, saturnine fellow wearing two guns tied low. When he heard the rumours, he gave a thin smile; and when someone asked him who he was, he said shortly: ‘James Green.’ James Green — alias Sudden!

SUDDEN - TROUBLESHOOTER
BY FREDERICK H. CHRISTLAN, based upon characters created by Oliver Strange

Lafe Gunnison had passed the word to the homesteaders — quit stealing cattle or take the consequences! Up in the Mesquites, the nesters reacted the only way they knew: they told Gunnison he was a liar and if he showed up in their neck of the woods he’d wind up with a tombstone over his head.

It was trouble — big trouble — all it needed was one small spark to start a war to the death. Only one man could stop it. One man — backed by his courage and the guns he wore. A man with a past, scouring the West for two killers — a man called — Sudden.
