Great review as usual,i am on the 3rd book of the longarm giants arc by james reasoner. I have kind of a dumb question,what series is john fury from? I would like to check them out,as i was introduced to DOC and RAIDER in the last book(i read a few doc and raider books i liked them so i would like to see about the fury series) thanks larry

The series is called FURY as by Jim Austin (who just happens to be James Reasoner). There were five books:

1. Fury
2. Blood Ransom
3. River War
4. Last Chance Canyon
5. Nevada Guns

An excellent series in my opinion.

No problem with the comments appearing under the wrong post Larry, we both found them :)

There are 31 Easy Company books as by John Wesley Howard.

Doc and Raider starred in 73 books and then Raider went on to appear in 42 more books under his own name. All as by J.D. Hardin.
