Parker's Ironhorse (A Cole and Hitch Novel): 9780425267707: Knott, Robert: Books Review: If you are a Cole and Hitch fan you will love this action packed western novel. - As a fan of the Cole and Hitch series I recently purchased and just finished reading this 374 page hardcover book (Robert P. Parker’s Ironhorse by Robert Knott) and loved it. In this western tale Virgil Cole and Everett Hitch are newly appointed territorial Marshals whose first assignment seemed a simple one at first. They are to escort Mexican prisoners to the border; however, it is not long before this turns into a complicated and blazing guns situation involving the governor of Texas, his wife and daughters and some of the most ruthless pack of killers they have ever faced. What started out as a train robbery becomes much more bloody. This novel is packed with various unusual and strange characters and has a plot involving money and land. I never give away too much information when reviewing a novel because I never want to spoil the story for the reader. If you like westerns and you are a fan of the Cole and Hitch series this is a book you will enjoy reading. There are plenty of shoot-outs and other action in this book. I loved it. Rating: 5 Stars. Joseph J. Truncale (Author: Tactical Principles of the most combative systems) Review: There's a new sheriff in town, folks. - With some regret, I just closed the cover of "Ironhorse", wishing it wasn't over. I can assure potential readers that this novel offered up one great romp through the old west, just as capably as the original author would have done. Author Robert Knott, now taking up the mantle of Robert Parker, respectfully & faithfully followed his predecessor's style, but without burying his own identity and skills as a writer. The details are impeccable, from the luxurious tufted material on the first class seats of the train, to the exact type of bullets Hitch is loading into his Colt 45. This new author has some serious writing chops: We can jump into the world he's built for us, see Hitch and Cole come to life once more, and know that Robert Parker would probably be pleased with the results. Readers can ride along with the two lawmen on the "St. Louis & San Fran Express", listening to their banter, and knowing they're always on the alert. Naturally, there are scenes of their unrivaled sharpshooting, as they fend off robbers, this time in the "playing field" of a moving vehicle or on the unstable roof of the train cars. I noticed a few readers griping, but I get the distinct feeling that they need to come to grips with the reality of Parker's passing. It's fortunate that an author this capable is carrying the torch. Knowing that, I'm impatiently waiting to get my hands on the next installment. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #237,192 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1,856 in Science Fiction Crime & Mystery #2,842 in Westerns (Books) #3,733 in Mystery Action & Adventure | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (302) | | Dimensions | 4.21 x 0.94 x 7.36 inches | | Edition | Illustrated | | ISBN-10 | 0425267709 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0425267707 | | Item Weight | 9.2 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 432 pages | | Publication date | December 3, 2013 | | Publisher | G.P.

I must say that Robert Knott captures the very essence of the characters, the story lines, even the caliber of Mr. Parkers characters, making for an engaging and powerful read. ## Frequently Bought Together - Robert B.
