Reviews

[Wayne · Rating 3 out of 5]

Steele starts a range war when he rides into town to bid on some land that's up for sale. The problem is that a ruthless landowner is pushing other ranchers off their land to own the whole valley. As always, Steele makes an enemy and people all around start to die.

Not the best, but not that bad either. Just lacking some in the action department.

[Rich Harvey · Rating 5 out of 5]

Nobody fights crime like Steele

Steele isn't for the faint if heart. A town has it's peaceful veneer stripped away when Adam Steele locks horns with a land baron and his attempts to control every acre of land. Steele doesn't give them the will to fight, like The Magnificent Seven, but rather stokes the fires of hatred. The climax, when the antagonist meets his well-deserved fate, is particularly gratifying.
