EDGE: EVE OF EVIL


Number 28 in “The Most Violent Westerns in Print”, EVE OF EVIL concerns the happenings at Christmastime.

In an at first unspecified ghost town, Edge and several people are gathered in what seems to them to be a somewhat familiar tableau.

Supporting characters in this story are young couple Joseph and the very-pregnant Maria. Also, there are three sheepmen, someone named “Starr” from the East and a former hooker named Angel North. Starting to sound like a story you might have heard before?

As with all the EDGE Westerns, there’s lots of gunplay and chapter-ending puns that will either make you laugh or groan.

Only a couple more things happen to complete the story. One is that they discover the town they’re in was once called “Bethel” and the second is the birth of Joseph and Maria’s child. It’s interesting to see how it all plays out.
