BAEN'S WEIRD WESTERN FANTASY AND HORROR ANTHOLOGY SERIES BECOMES A TRILOGY!

THE WEIRD WILD WEST IN ALL ITS GLORY. . . AND GORY!

Jonathan Maberry introduces us to a half-Comanche hired gun running out of time against some murderous ghosts. And James A. Moore pits skinwalker against kachina in a Western anthology any historian would love!

About Straight Outta Dodge City:
“A dark, diverting anthology of 14 original tales, the third in a series. . . . By tossing weird fiction concepts into western settings, these tales give rise to unusual what-ifs. . . . the ever-enjoyable Joe R. Lansdale is on hand with 'The Hoodoo Man and the Midnight Train,' an energetic tale of a mystical gunfighter, and Harry Turtledove presents the delightful 'Junior & Me,' set in an alternate world in which evolution favored reptiles rather than mammals, and the ornery galoot narrating the yarn is actually a highly evolved dinosaur. The result is an amusing . . . bunch of stories.”—Publishers Weekly

About Straight Outta Tombstone:
“The authors were having fun. Even when they are not playing the stories for laughs, they are taking an opportunity to . . . tell a story with a fresh twist, and expand out of their expected boundaries.”—The Galveston County Daily News
