    3: THE SPURS OF IRON EYES

It was as if some invisible force had drawn the infamous bounty hunter Iron Eyes to the small border town of Rio Vista. Weighed down with saddlebags filled with a fortune in silver and gold coins, the rider no longer seemed to have any reason to exist, for the fortune had become a millstone around his neck. Then a priest asked him if he would help people of a small Mexican village who had become prey to marauding bandits. It looked like a quick and certain way to die. But Iron Eyes eagerly accepted the challenge and with newly found resolve headed south - straight into the jaws of an unknown enemy. He had always lived by his gun, but this time he needed courage and cunning, too!

    2: IRON EYES THE AVENGER

Bounty hunter Iron Eyes was on the trail of an outlaw and even hundreds of miles couldn't shake off the gaunt, death-like creature when he had the scent of his prey. He had ridden deep into the heart of Arizona with only one thing on his mind ... blood money! Yet the town in which the long hunt ended was no ordinary place. This was Tombstone. Whilst waiting for his reward money to be approved, Iron Eyes was hired by a strange female named Squirrel Tooth Annie, and her three mining companions, who wanted them to ride shotgun on them and their four wagons full of precious ore. Iron Eyes knew that trouble was brewing between the Earps and the Clantons, yet he still somehow found himself caught up in one of the west's bloodiest showdowns. Question was - could he survive it?

    1: IRON EYES

Iron Eyes was a deadly bounty hunter who never brought his quarry back alive. Riding into a small town, he soon gunned down a wanted outlaw called Dan Hardy, and dragged his body down to the sheriff's office to collect his blood money. There was just one problem. Only the law in El Paso was authorized to pay the reward. Iron Eyes set out for the big city ...unaware that Hardy's younger brothers were already dogging his trail. As if that wasn't enough trouble for a man to handle, Iron Eyes became involved with a mysterious woman and a Mexican rancher along the way, who had a dangerous mission in mind for him. Only his deadly skill with a gun would give him any chance of getting his money ... and staying alive to spend it.

Author Rory Black is a pseudonym for the prolific British western writer Michael D. George. The author also writes the wildly popular Bar 10 westerns under the name 'Boyd Cassidy'.

Iron Eyes is not your usual western hero.

"The man had a haunting face that hid beneath long, limp, black hair. He wore a battered, weather-proof coat favoured by long riders and road agents which almost reached his spurs. With each stride the sound of bullets clinking together in his deep pockets filled the room.
This was no normal man. This was an evil spirit who had yet to die and seek refuge in Hell."

This is the legendary bounty hunter known simply as Iron Eyes.

The author tells how he created the character of Iron Eyes. "There was this blood spattered saloon and suddenly Iron Eyes was there. And when you read that opening chapter you get that feeling that no one else but Iron Eyes could have wreaked all that havoc."

Iron Eyes made his first appearance back in 1999 and 10 years on is still plying his trade as a bounty hunter in the 12th book Iron Eyes Makes War. A journey that has involved Iron Eyes in the events at the OK Corral and taken on Mexican bandits all within his stride. A character that has grown along the way.

A comment from the Broken Trails BlogSpot has this to say: "I'm not sure why this spectral character with his scarred up face and emaciated figure proves to be so fascinating. It would be easy to say that there is something there that harks back to the days of The Piccadilly Cowboys but then there are elements of the traditional western there as well. And another ingredient that I just can't put my finger on - just that something that says that there is a new 'Iron Eyes' book and I've got to get it.

"As Iron Eyes spurred his mount, the long black hair beat up and down upon his collar. It was like the flapping of bat's wings."
