- BRWThis Lone Ranger Left Me Wanting More
November 22, 2018
This was my first western novel, so I may not be in the best position to judge this book. The plot and characters pulled me in. I could picture the town, the horse, the characters, and the shootouts. By the time I finished this first book, I was genuinely interested in the future of the citizens of Bandera, angry with the town's council, and eager to find out what happens to John Crudder's relationship with Charlotte. The main character has the intelligence, skill, strength, and resourcefulness of Batman or a Hollywood-created western hero. If you like stories of good guys standing up to the evil around them, then you'll love this fast-paced story of a privileged Ivy League lawyer turned Texas vigilante.

Twisted

This is a different kind of western, than any I've read before. The hero is not your normal cowboy, but pulls it off quite spectacularly. Enjoyed very much, going after book two right now.

A Great Escape

What a way to delve into the world of the old west in our modern complicated times. This simple and intriguing story of vigilante times gone by is the perfect antidote to the crazy world we live in today. Highly recommend

Well written and very enjoyable!

I have read the entire series and enjoyed all of the books. I especially enjoyed reading about someone who was rich, but wanted to help others rather than get richer. I hope other books about John Crudder will be coming out. I read a lot of westerns and fell that this series is very realistic and has enough action that it keeps the reader engaged. If you like westerns you will like this series.

Entertaining!

A good, easy read with a great story. Characters are likable, and the story line has depth and interest. At the end of Book 1, I'm left excited to read the next books in the series to see where our main character takes us.

Midnight Marauder
August 8, 2018
Imaginary and well-written. Not your usually predictable western drama. I enjoyed the way the story unravels, but by bit, to reveal the hidden core that dram revolves around. Like magnetism, I am drawn to the next book in this continuing saga.

Good read
August 7, 2018
Have ordered the next two books. This was a very good book despite John wanting to even the scales of law. With his actions it will never balance.

Was not my favorite western. The premise of a super wealthy individuals being a lone vigilante seems weak. He could use his wealth to help or put together a group of individuals.

Did not think John crudder would not use his wealth to form a group to solve the injustices he encounters. Seems far fetched.

Justice
July 31, 2018
This novel details how one man decided to deliver justice to those who kill but haven't been charged with a crime. Well written with plenty of action. I highly recommend this author.

A vigilante rides through this book.
July 29, 2018
While I have enjoyed the story, I have some problems with the idea that the hero can do the deeds of a vigilante. It just doesn't sit right.

Very good read

Very entertaining twist on law in the old west. I'll read more.

good twists and turns
July 10, 2018
This is a well-written western. The plot was well-done, good twists and turns, some good tension and character development. Most of all, I found myself anxious to pick M.M. back up every day to see what was next. I am ready to read the next one!

Great summer read
July 8, 2018
A wonderful escape back to the old west. Intriguing well developed characters keep the story moving. Great summer read filled with interesting plot lines all set in the wild wild west. A fun escape like binge watching a John Wayne movie marathon.

Interesting concept

There is a bit of midnight marauder in most of our souls. Put in certain circumstances where it was necessary I believe many of us are capable.
But carefully, carefully, never getting too arrogant...

What's next for the Midnight Marauder??
June 6, 2018
So thankful a friend recommended this book. What an opening chapter! Quickly grabbed me! After reading first four chapters had to call it a night. Rushed home the next evening to finish the book. Author obviously researched the old west and made it come to life. Looking forward to the next adventure for the Midnight Marauder.

Couldn't put it down.

I read very quickly since it caught my attention and held me to the end. Lots of action and a tad of a love story. John Crudder is like a super hero in western clothes. Loved learning all about Bandera, San Antonio and Austin. I am reading the second novel now. Thank Roy

A Well Written Western
June 4, 2018
This was a book that you couldn't put down. John Crudder is a man who finds his purpose and passion in creating justice to the oppressed. It was beautifully written and depicted the wild wild west in the 1800's. I suspect that he is smart enough to figure out how to get his needs met with Miss Charlotte and continue on his journey to right the wrongs of the exploited. The preview for Book 2 keeps you hanging. I would recommend it to anyone who likes a good Western!.

... since Louis L’Amour have I found a western protagonist like John Crudder
May 29, 2018
Not since Louis L’Amour have I found a western protagonist like John Crudder! I started “Midnight Marauder” in the morning and finished it the same day.
Crudder is an adroit character that keeps you turning the page. I’m hooked on Westerns again thanks to Roy Clinton.

I highly recommend this!!

Midnight Marauder is a unique read. The book immediately draws you in and then as you continue John Crudder becomes more than just the main character, he becomes your friend. The author creates an environment you can easily imagine, with historically and geographically accurate details to tug at your memory. I'm not usually a reader of the Western genre, but this book was recommended to me, and I am so glad I had the opportunity to enjoy this. It is well written, interesting, entertaining, believable, and captivating. I look forward to continuing to follow the life of the Midnight Marauder!

If I had started reading it earlier in the day, I would have finished this in one day. I was caught up and didn't want to put it down.
