À propos de cet audio
Badger Kershaw was becoming a familiar figure on the frontier after the War between the States. Riding an Appaloosa with Lobo, his dog-wolf hybrid, often by his side, he was feared by most outlaws on the dodge on whom there was a bounty. It was not a savory profession, perhaps, but Kershaw was honest about what he did. Frontier lawmen for the most part were accustomed to dealing with Kershaw. When the fugitive was willing to surrender - which was less frequent than it might be thought - Kershaw would bring in an outlaw alive, but it was not an option he encountered very often. Generally it was one man against another, but in what would possibly be Badger Kershaw's greatest feat, the odds were quite different.
Colonel Benjamin Grierson had been Kershaw's commanding officer during the War between the States. When, years after the war's end, Grierson's daughter was one of the four women seized in a train hold-up and taken prisoner, Grierson appealed again to the man who had once served under him to rescue the women from the outlaw gang. Kershaw surprised the army when he chose to do the job entirely alone, despite the incredible odds against him.

Quality Straightforward Bounty Hunter Tale
Yes, R.W. Stone's 'Jedediah "Badger" Kershaw' is two-dimensional (singleminded, cartoonishly dedicated, etc.), but his "missions" are capably-written, loaded with brilliantly-scripted action, and given an authentic feel with a tech-weenie's attention to armament detail [In fact, there are parts of this book that read like a gun-maker's Owners Manual (action, rate of fire, size of cartridge used, etc.)].
Beyond that interesting (to a nerd like me, at least) aspect of the writing, Stone does a very nice job with description and establishing setting. To be sure, the plot ("rescue the girl") is glaringly simple and characterization/motivation is pretty much nonexistent.. but 'Badman's Pass' is a more than passable Western-flavored adventure.
The narration by Ramiz Monsef contributes to my favorable impression of this audiobook. Blackstone Western Inc. ensure great production standards (spot-on volume control and seamless splicing, for example), and Monsef's exemplary voice-acting actually improves on creditable diction, timbre, cadence, and tone. I would listen to more from Mr. Monsef any day.
Taken altogether, this admittedly imperfect narrative rates 8.5 stars out of 10. Be prepared for holes in logic, a sketched-out plot, excessive technical detail, and some cringeworthy stereotypes, but if you can set aside reservations, this is a very entertaining yarn. I was thrilled to have gotten this book as a 'Plus' option.. because it would actually merit a Credit.
