The Magnificent Seven.
Yes, I know it was based on The Seven Samurai, but the
western sticks in my mind. The story of a rag-tag bunch of gunslingers coming
together to fight overwhelming odds is one I return to time and again. I love that
we come to care about these men, making their demise all the more poignant.
It helps that my late father loved westerns, and watching them reminds me of him.
I’ve borrowed heavily from this tale in the Nifaran Chronicles. There will be blood.
