now I'm a little lost with the first part of this chapter, but I guess it will be explained later on. so much mystery here, forcing the readers to think and follow. very good job!

Samuel seems to be endowed with supernatural powers. You portray him as a slave, but wins praise because of his strength. Excellent dialogue. I think you might make a more clear-cut transition to the dead Samuel being revived on the table in the crime lab by the woman with the mysterious silver Colt that brings Samuel back to life. Great way to end with the technician discovering that the body has disappeared from the lab. judi

Very gruesome, but wonderfully penned. You did a fantastic job conveying all of the various character's feelings by subtle context, I love it! This story is the fuel of imagination, I am enamored with your quick and easy style and wicked way if quick characterization. You make it a read we don't have to fight with to enjoy. For that, I thank you!

This is an awesome Series, I love it. This back story was very vivid and dark, great job. You are doing a wonderful job with it. You have to watch those Characters as they have a mind of their own. lol. They will tell you when the story is over and you don't have any choice in the matter.

Consider:
"When water screwed with a dog's sense of smell,it....

An interesting story that defies logic in that hunting dogs ever ate humans as you suggested but in the realm if fantasy anything is possible.

When you want to mess with a reader's mind, you do a superior job. This is very well written with an interesting flow of words, making for a unique read.

Excellent continuation, lancellot. So, the angel brought the bounty hunter back because of his unselfish actions and heroic sacrifice, is that about right? Great way to keep him "up and running". You leave a great many questions unanswered here, such as what happened to that lunchbox and those keys, but I understand it's an intentional "hook" to get readers vested in the story, keep them coming back for more. Well, I, for one, am looking forward to the next installment. Hopefully, some of those questions will be answered then...

Great writing, keep it up!

Great suspense. How is the first story about the runaway slave linked to the Bounty Hunter, 200 yrs later? I assume Samuel is the re-incarnation of the slave. A lot of unanswered questions. Great story

    There were two slaves. Samuel was the 2nd slave. The Hunter.
