Offers fast paced action delivered with clever and quirky play on words. It's very much Star Wars meets John Wayne!

The world of science fiction and fantasy has been hurting for a fresh approach. For the first time in years a story has moved me. West World is a story of man versus ambition. The more I read this book, the more I became concerned with the outcome for each character. You find yourself having a stake in Endia and the struggles of all it's people. The action is fast paced and heart stopping. The wholesome approach to the writing is refreshing and it's something I could recommend to all ages. If your looking for a yarn that will keep you on the edge of your seat, look no further. West World has it all. I would be there now........were it not for the stars.

West World is a fantastically written book that bridges the gap of those who like Zane Grey and Louis L'Amour, while also enjoying the Science-Fiction writing of Orson Scott Card and Isaac Asimov. The characters in the book have an enticing progression, while also maintaining the balance of having the reader emote and identify with them. There is action, love, betrayal and forgiveness found in this great work.

West World is a wonderful melding of sci-fi and western that delivers a fun and fast paced adventure story with plenty of wild characters and surprises along the way. This is the first book that I’ve read in years that is suitable for all audiences, as Crandell does not wallow in violence, sex and gore. Extremely enjoyable and recommended.

This is a book that broke me out of my lack of enjoyment for reading and made me enjoy it again. I can't wait for number two. | |

| Ed Crandell has crafted a truly entertaining venture into the region of Sci-Fi Westerns. His story features a balanced offering of action, suspense, intrigue, and romance while remaining a work that the whole family can enjoy. There are enough subplots in West World to add flavor to the main story line but not detract from it, and Shallowhorne, the main protagonist, is just brave enough and courageous enough to root for, but still human enough to believe in. I enjoyed West World and I look forward to Crandell's next literary effort. |

| This book caters to a variety of people and personalities. It is very rare to find a writer who can do that and still keep it interesting. |

| "West World was a really good book. Although it is not the kind of book I normally read, it kept my interest all the way through and made me laugh. Ed used his wild imagination in creating the characters. There is also just enough suspense and romance to keep it lively. Once I started reading it I couldn’t wait to get some time to finish the book. Read it and you too might become fan of Zeke the Ar[k]uckian." |
Good Read * * * * *
