From AudioFile

The violence in this engrossing story of the lawless Old West is senseless, brutal, and graphic. Evans narrates this chilling tale with icy restraint in a perfectly cadenced style, including a wide range of voices and accents for the outlaws, cowboys, and townsfolk. With no central character, the story of Nowhere, Texas, located in No-Man's Land, is all about tough, gritty action. Evans's voice empathizes well with the emotions of the character ensemble. As the story builds to a violent confrontation, the unexpected events will keep listeners involved. S.C.A. © AudioFile 2005, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
