Matt Forbeck recommends
thumb
Cold as Hell (2022)
(Black Badge, book 1)
Rhett C Bruno and Jaime Castle
"Cold as Hell? More like fun as hell. Take an undead outlaw hero, match him villains of the most devilish kind, and string it all together with a plot that has more twists and turns than a hangman's noose. Westerns don't get any weirder than this."
thumb
Gate Crashers (2018)
(Breach , book 1)
Patrick S Tomlinson
"Tomlinson's well-plotted tale of first contact pinballs between hard science-fiction and hilarity, delivering a thrilling yarn that'll have you both laughing and biting your nails, often at the same time. Most of all, though, it's damn fun!"
