Uncertain Justice

Holy Crap!

There is no way my words can describe the pleasure and exhilaration I got from reading this story. Best on this site. One of the best I've ever read. Best-selling novel quality work. Thank you thank you thank you.

Superb

Nothing more needs to be said.

lee childs,john clancy, w.e.b.griffin look out

this would be an absolute paperback buy and read. it is also the first time i have ever commented on a book by anyone!
don't stop much more would be appreciated
forward too me at majician101@aol.com

Excellent

my 2nd time reading it - just as enthralled this time around.

great

If this was a book on a shelf, I would have paid for it. Thanks for writing it for us.

absolutely fantastic

Please sir, can we have another?

Way off the chart!

You have combined a story from the best of the western writers with the best of crime writers with a whole lot of supernatural occurrences that the West is known for. I have never seen such a collaborative effort in any novel. This has to be the best story on this or any other site. Thank you for such a great effort. This bears another reading where I can take my time. Trying to get it all done in one sitting was too much however I didn't take very long breaks.

I had to quit reading less than half way thru

The author's complete ignorance of the guns, crossbow, and tools described made reading to painful for this old vet to continue with an otherwise very good story!

Awsome

Enjoyable story, I couldn't put it down til the end.

The Best

As with other comments made, I could not put this story down until I had finished reading it.
This has to be the best I have read on this site in a number of years.
Thanks for sharing, and if you ever publish please let me know I would be more than happy to buy.

I happened on this work ... and am very glad I did... A talented work, insightful, ...perhaps a commnent on some things in our society that need guarding... our guardians have become our masters... keep on!!

Great story

Long, but great. Enjoyed the heck out of it. Glad you wrapped it up well....sure would have hated reading a 55 page story and then been left hanging!

Great Story

Could not stop reading this great story. A comment from a vet about the weapons was uncalled for. He could have just enjoyed the story. This story also confirms the waste our government spends on worthless projects and exposes many dishonest persons in our goverment.

Good But Flawed

At the time I'm posting this, I'm about half-way through the story, and while I am enjoying it immensely, the main character's outright STUPIDITY is really starting to get to me. Someone else already point out all that was wrong with the scene where he decides to just sit around for a few hours, then talk to, and then let the "bad guy" escape after burning all evidence to his own innocence. What's bothering me right this moment is that after finding some gold, Miles, our supposedly ex-solder with survival skills decides that after MONTHS of living in the wilderness, self-sufficient and achieving some kind of spiritual one-ness with the world, essentially being in the free and clear, he decides he ought to travel to civilization and SELL THE GOLD, because he TOTALLY has a use for money! There's no WAY he'll get identified in any conceivable manner right? There's no WAY that his trail will be picked up right!? What the **** does he need money for!?

Best Story Ever!!

Love longer length stories, Loved this one. Plan to read everything written by Longhorn_07

Response to Prior comment

A prior comment questioned why he would leave the mountain fastness where he was ostensibly safe to sell some gold.
He needed the fruits and vegetables required for a complete diet and bluntly even had he the time he would need several acres under cultivation to get them.
I think it was less risky to trek out and trade gold for survival materials than to risk a bad winter on a less than viable diet then to dig up acres to grow food for the next winter. Besides as a semi social person he (we) need some albeit limited human interaction or we go bat shit crazy.

1 of the BEST

by any author! Thank you for writing it for all of us.

suspend all connection with reality if you want to waste your time reading this story

it is over exaggerated, totally hyped, way too long, and without a doubt one of the lamest attempts I have ever read. I kept slogging through hoping it would eventually be worth the time I had already invested. Nope.
Abandon hope all ye who venture here.

Oh, bravo!

Excellent story. There may well be a few nicks for an editor to handle, but the plot and story overall are realistic enough to be in print; I've not seen better handling from a few of the famous authors in print. Suggestions to get published notwithstanding--great job with the book. The length is great for the detail you went into on the story; I didn't have to suspend my disbelief very far at all to think that this could possibly happen. I wouldn't call this a western by any means, but the attitudes and characteristics of your main character and his friends is reminiscent of those in Louis L'Amour's books and a number of the other views of a romantic western. In short, I love it.
I am a little curious as to how the government spent so much trying to find him and pin him down, but that, too, is believable. Equipment is unbelievably expensive.

Wow!!!

What a story! I don't know how this fits in Loving Wives but I am sure glad that I found it and had a chance to read it. It left me speechless (and that is hard to do). Some comments say it was to long, well I didn't want it to end. I couldn't stop reading (I was up till after 4AM on a work night). You are some kind of writer. Bravo! Bravo! Bravo!

The plot itself isn't all that unique. It feels like the script of a cheap night-time-tv thriller in fact, but I was looking forward to read it anyway. Why? Not everything can be the next great american novel and in my pursuit of it on the internet I have found many rare gems.

At times I had the feeling that you were more interested in a re-telling of Rambo than in your own unique story.

The problem I've found is the following: I soon started skipping chapters. A few here, a few there until I was not interested in the travel anymore but only cared about the destination, your story's ending. That should tell you something. Instead of one chapter separated in 55 pages, the story could've been told in half of that, but be way more immersive to your readers.

I won't vote, because I obviously can't do that fairly without having read the whole thing. If you polish the novel some more, the (current) rating of 4.86 would be well deserved. The potential for that is certainly present for that! As it stands now, however? No way!

IT SUCKED

Wow what a read I also sat up three work nights in a row reading this. It is a little (rambo-ish) actually a lot, but it gives a lesson learned over and over in life. well written I'm tired and need to find a safe place to sleep. Good night....for a couple of hours as long as I don't get any injuries.....zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

This is a great read...

and tough to put down. I read this over the course do several days and finally finished it on my I Pad. I was actually sorry to see it end. This would make a great movie or tv series script. Longhorn 07 wrote an epic...

was finally able to finish reading

but, like others, wish there was more of it. Deserves more tha a 5* and sincere congratulations to Longhorn.

UNCERTAIN JUSTICE

VERY BEAUTIFUL STORY INDEED AND NARRATED VERY NICELY TO KEEP THE INTRIGUE AND INTEREST IN THE STORY ALL THOUGH .

pretty good

I loved the story but he should have gone back to Linda at the end.

not the first read

I can visualize this type action. I was raised in the outdoors and I am well aware of how to avoid capture. It is not all that hard to do, I have yet met a city boy who could track a wounded elephant through a snow drift. I m not say they don't exist, just that I have not met them.
The story takes some flights of fantasy, which I find it is part of its entrapment the reader. The author had to play free and loose with property rights and ownership, but what hey it is his story and going into all the red tape involved provided nothing but stumbling blocks for this tale
Final views, well done, sir well done indeed

expand and print

Would love a bit longer and I believe you could get it printed. Fantastic!

A nice read

I haven't read an action story in a long time, but this one stirred my interest in the genre again. Obviously it was a great read and I appreciate it appearing on this site. The only odd thing in it for me was an early comment that people saw a inner rage in his eyes and that made him someone to avoid. His actions in his fugitive life didn't seem the reflect that- he was a decent man. I wonder why he could have a good relationship later on but it was impossible in his earlier time in Texas. Just little curiosities that don't detract from my enjoyment of the story. I wish there were more like this to read.

Another example of your fine writing...

Obviously, being on this site, I had no idea what to expect in it but this story was exceptional... in a way, it's kind of disappointing that Mr Brady didn't get a punishment that he was aware of but at the least he got a punishment that took away everything he was striving for.

A story of a man fighting the great machine of bureaucracy and law as it wronged him simply because it could is amazing...

Work?

I was supposed to be working today. I was until I decided to read a bit during lunch. I finished the damn story in one sitting. Work didn't get much attention. It's a pretty good action story. Thanks.

WoW

topic says it all

only one of handful

of worthy story tellers on the literotica site.
a 5 STAR tale for sure,,inflation equates to 100 stars, because 97 % of other so called authors are worthless cucks.
******************************************* *************************************************s sss

Very well done!!!

I have read the story and the comments. Your introduction of flaws in the thinking of miles and others made this story believable. Nobody thinks clearly all the time. Your description of the conduct of law enforcement was excellent. Their flaws are really believable. I really like the lessons taught by the story. Miles agreement with a handshake rather than a contract for the gold was very good.

If I recall correctly, the only person to die was the bounty hunter. He deserved to die. The only other shocking part of the story was the killing of the dog. Miles didn't like it but it was something that had to be done. I understand.

Yes, there was a lot of detail, but it drew this reader into a visual comprehension of how things looked. It was easy to identify with the various characters.

In all, a very well organized and well written story. A really good story is when it is difficult to differentiate fact from fiction in the mind of the reader. I am glad you stopped when you did. I don't care what happened to Brady. It is clear that he will receive some form of justice. It was a good ending to a fantastic story. I would purchase such a story without a doubt. Thanks for your hard work to accomplish this difficult task.

great read

Have read a lot of dross on this site but found this story interesting and captivating No doubt i will seek out more of this authors work

Great Read

Fascinating plot by a great story teller. I enjoyed this story more than any other reads over the past year.

GREAT

A long story, I did just skim some pages. But great reading. A little more detail in the ''news reports'' and something on how Brady became ''late'' and it would have perfect. 5x5 on this one

Only Through Page 7, But...

First, how even an incompetent attorney wouldn't INSIST on seeing the autopsy report, and how even a corrupt judge wouldn't dismiss the case without it is beyond me.

Second, there is NO WAY the Medical Examiner doesn't also have a copy of the autopsy report.

A Joke *

Man people grade easy on this site. He has a folder with evidence of his innocence in an office with copy and fax machines and plenty of time. He makes no copies, faxes no one, just sits and doses off, then hands the stuff to the crook when he arrives for no apparent reason, maybe just so the crooked DA can throw it into the all too convenient fireplace and keep the story going for another fifty pages. One Star.

Words fail me...

..as to how awesome this was.

Yeah, the premise was a touch flimsy, but it's so well written, who cares?

Well done sir.

I can only imagine

The amount of effort that went into writing this story. I, like many others, enjoyed it and I will look for your next one.

Thank You!

Alan

Wow

I've read this three times now, my only comment Is when does the movie come out!!

Great story

A beautiful novel - well done in general, maybe could profit from some small editing (Sunday or Sunny for the horse) but a very enjoyable story.

Blockbuster of a story

Definitely movie material. I had a sense of Rambo while reading this.

Blockbuster of a magnificent story!

Nuances of Rambo throughout this incredibly enjoyable and entertaining lengthy NOVEL. Thank you for your magnificent five star effort!

Totally Blown Away.

Well worth the read. Thank you. Can't believe I've missed this until today.

-V

When are you going to submit this to a publisher? This should be adapted as a novel and on bookstore shelves. Right now.
