There are references to Book 19 of the Last Gunfighter in the beginning of The Loner Book 1, and at the end of Book 20 of The Last Gunfighter events that happened in the beginning of The Loner book 1 are mentioned. There would be some minor spoilers given if the Loner was read before reading Book 20 of The Last Gunfighter.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01520972228105314308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3197075706983155600.post-51639643314436853352012-09-29T08:41:38.689+01:002012-09-29T08:41:38.689+01:00As far as I can tell both series run alongside eac...As far as I can tell both series run alongside each other. The first Loner book would comes after Last Gunfighter 13 Savage Country though as both father and son are in this.<br /><br />I've only read the first Last Gunfighter book and have read the first few Loner books. In those Loner books there has been mention of storylines in the Gunfighter books but not enough to spoil them for me when I get round to reading them.<br /><br />I believe father and son team up again but haven't got that far.Steve Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11631734673248632467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3197075706983155600.post-15309522923423488302012-09-28T22:43:49.693+01:002012-09-28T22:43:49.693+01:00Steve M,

It's a pain that Walmart is the only place that sells them, but at least Walmart sells them CHEAP. They sell all their books below cover price.<br /><br />I've checked around though and haven't seen any announcements of Loner books beyond the first three. Do you know if there are plans to continue the series?jseger9000https://www.blogger.com/profile/13247365934451244047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3197075706983155600.post-2910282186341236332009-12-11T21:40:03.818+00:002009-12-11T21:40:03.818+00:00Just to answer a comment by G.

In fact, I was refunded part of my shipping charge as they explained that the charge is done by weight but they often find they are able to get it shipped for less than their shipping service allows in the shipping estimate. Maybe if you had contacted them directly they would have worked with you on getting a better deal as well! <br /><br />It's only Jo and her daughter running the site from what they told me, so they try to make sure the little guys like us don't get run over in the process. They sent me a Loner out of their personal collection as it's not available for purchase anywhere but Wal Mart and they've had to buy them from there themselves. I was happy to get it without a bunch of exchange rate fees and the like charged by other big business retailers. I'd happily do business with them again.G.

The Book Depository is one of the few retailers who follow internationally customer-friendly policies. But alas, as I have found with the new BHE Books paperbacks, it is seemingly impossible to get them to list some titles. They hold no stocks of books themselves and will sell only what they know they can get immediately from the UK wholesalers.Chap O'Keefehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04404176810063857291noreply@blogger.com
