The Eye of Ulutoth


Strange Trails was recently reviewed at the Pulp Fiction Reviews website by the inestimable Ron Fortier. This collection of weird western tales includes a story entitled The Eye of Ulutoth, which features the Indian gunfighter and occult investigator Lone Crow and Six-Gun Susannah Johnson (who is maybe the fastest draw in the west, but perhaps not the most accurate shooter) as they attempt to dispose of an ancient evil artifact on a steamer somewhere off the coast of Costa Rica. This same story was recently nominated for a Pulp Factory Best Short Story award.

As a rule, there's stiff competition for these awards, so a nomination may be as far The Eye of Ulutoth goes. However, please do give Strange Trails a read and I suspect you'll enjoy the stories within.  At the moment, Strange Trails is available in Kindle format for a mere 99 cents and the print copy is running under seven bucks.
