It will take Jem Clayton and his father's old friend Doctor Royce Henry Halladay to make a stand and defend Seneca 6 from the invaders. Get your guns ready. The Guns of Seneca 6 series is as follows: Guns of Seneca 6 Old-Time Lawmen Magnificent Guns of Seneca 6 (Coming Soon!)
Chamber four of the Sci-Fi Western Epic On the night of the Beothuk raid on the Seneca 6 settlement, the townsfolk took up arms to fight the natives back. The fallout from that night was as mysterious as it was disastrous. Sheriff Sam Clayton rode off into the Beothuk territories, never to return. First Deputy Tom Masters supposedly succumbed to injuries while escorting a group of survivors across the wasteland. And perhaps most famously, the town's doctor vanished, leaving behind only the body of his beloved wife and several brutally murdered Seneca deputies and Beothuk. That one night created a chain of events that led to complete upheaval, but nobody ever heard the full story. Not till now. This is the tale one little girl, so affected by the raid and its aftermath that it would change her life forever. It would set her on a path of dark revenge and the burning desire to see things set right. But she couldn't do it alone, not by far. For this particular journey, she'd need the help of a man not afraid to die. A deadly, fast gunslinger with a taste for the blood of the unjust. A man they call Doc Halladay.
Combining the best of gritty westerns like Tombstone and The Wild Bunch with the sci-fi inventiveness of Firefly and Star Wars, Bernard Schaffer's Guns of Seneca 6 series is an Old West romp on a remote planet where gunslingers, outlaws and lawmen battle over the frontier. In this jaw-dropping sequel, newly-appointed Sheriff Jem Clayton just can't get used to being an upstanding citizen. People only seem to want to complain to him about all sorts of trivial things and he just can't fake being interested anymore. When a wagon full of bank robbers show up, it's time for Jem to unload his frustrations in more ways than one. Soon, Jem is embroiled in an adventure with a crazy old preacher to hunt down a bandit posing as Jem's former alter-ego "Gentleman Jim," except this one is selling kidnapped women to off-world slave traders. The three Beothuk boys from the first book return to take on a quest in search of a new Chief for their tribe. Their journey brings them into the company of a fanatical rebel Beothuk who is preparing to make war on the white settlers. It won't be long before Jem's Colt Defeaters are firing and the lead starts flying in this non-stop, action-packed sequel to Guns of Seneca 6. Seneca 6 is a world where legends like Doc Holliday and Jesse James would all feel comfortable in. Listeners will too. The Guns of Seneca 6 series blends the best of the Old West and science fiction for all-out adventure.
