YAY! Yet another 'dying geezer sent back in time, by aliens, to the wild west' story.
Some of you may say that this is an old, tired concept and getting boring. I say, there's always room for more. 'Hastings' is new to SOL and writing without an editor, but he's certainly literate enough for my taste. He's a good writer/storyteller and I want to read good stories.
I'm giving the plot a '9' because the storyline never gets old unless it's totally plagiarized. Tech rating of '8' .. because I can't be bothered with looking up details on historical firearms.. and a 'replicator' cover a multitude of sins, anyway.
And, as I say, adventure stories really appeal to me.
- The downside being the protagonist Olsen's revamped body apparently has no Libido or he'd easily find some admiring and willing girls, straightaway.
Ah well, the story's not over yet.
