“I love this author! His books are very entertaining. I Always look forward to his books.” “…Story was gripping running the range of emotions.…” An evil band of outlaws move from town to town preying on the helpless. They target elderly people and single women. They have robbed and murdered with impunity. Towns are terrified. No one wants to go up against them. That is just the situation that requires the Midnight Marauder. John Crudder tracks them down in an effort to balance the Scales of Justice. As he realizes he is out gunned, he decides to take them on one-by-one. Readers’ Favorite Review 5 Stars The Midnight Marauder, John Crudder, has once again taken to the road to capture the very evil Butch Granger and his three friends in Bad to the Bone by Roy Clinton. When Butch arrives in Bandera and kills Jack and Thelma, an elderly couple John and his family know well, in a very violent and senseless way, John knows he must follow their trail and bring them to justice. As he follows their path through many small towns, he finds that Butch has killed many more seniors as well as a young child, dogs, cats and horses, all of them brutally and with much more extra force than needed. Butch is known, feared and wanted in many of the towns John travels through and the more he hears, the more he learns how evil Butch is. Butch has no conscience and has enjoyed hurting people since he was a young boy just because he could. This makes John even more anxious to stop him as quickly as possible. Bad to the A Midnight Marauder Adventure is an old time western story with adventure, excitement, and surprises that kept me reading late into the night. I have very quickly become a fan of the Midnight Marauder series and Roy Clinton’s writing. He has a perfect knack of making the story very real while keeping all of the fictional elements as well. Bad to the Bone is a winner, as is the whole series. If you enjoy a good old fashioned cowboy story, this is a must-read for young and old. It is a well written, clean story without cursing or sex scenes; just a good, solid book. Be sure to read the other novels in the Midnight Marauder Midnight Marauder Return of Midnight Marauder Revenge of Midnight Marauder Midnight Marauder and the President of the United States Love Child Bad to the Bone Candy Man Also be sure to read Lost, about a modern-day cowboy, Clint Hazard, who succeeds in making an absolute mess of his life. But he finds hope….
