From the great amount of blood pouring from his wounds, Luke was losing his strength fast and knew if he didn't get help soon he would surely bleed to death. With that thought in mind he took a deep, ragged breath and crawled on. By the time he stopped again, he was within a few feet of the back wall, but he was tired, weak, and very sleepy. He had no more than came to a stop when he heard horse hoofs pounding the hard ground as they made their way into town, and from the sound Luke estimated to be at least a dozen. He heard the loud voices of Barton and Quint McKuen greet the men as they drew up, and he knew then that time was running out and if the loss of blood didn't kill him it was just a matter of time before they would.

DJ Bishop's Luke Ludd
Great book! Is all I can say. A story with living, breathing characters that come alive as the pages are turned. At the end I felt as though I knew Luke, Elam, and Cork. And I shared in the happiness Loraine must have felt when Luke asked her to marry him. This is a good, clean, action packed book. The author did a good job in telling the story, and he did it without every other word being profanity.
Tom Fitzwater Review
Luke Ludd is a book of revenge and what friendship's are suppossed to mean; and makes the reader agree that revenge is the only way. While Luke has been away, working as a Pinkerton Agent, Laughlin attempts to take over water and range rights from everyone in the valley resulting in multiple murders, including Luke Ludd's father. Luke's only desire is to see the men responsible dead. This results in his killing three of the McKuen brothers in the streets of Rising Star. Luke is badly wounded himself during the gun battle and struggling to survive. After being rescued by Cork Langtry, an old family friend with beautiful daughter who has loved Luke her entire life, the book is off and running with non-stop action. The character's come alive and the reader feels as though he is there with them to the end. Luke Ludd is a must read for any fan of western novels and a book you will not want to put down because you can't wait to see what happens next. D.J. Bishop is a writer with in depth knowledge of his genre and readers will look forward to future books.
