Now that Chuck Norris is too old for the kick ass action movie stuff, he seems to have turned to writing books. Or at least allowing the use of his name and likeness to appear on them. The former movie-turned-TV-star is staying pretty close to his Walker, Texas Ranger cowboy persona, offering up a western entitled The Justice Riders
.
From the gold and silver mines of California and Nevada to the wide open plains of Texas, the American West was a wild frontier in the 1870s where dangerous outlaws pursued devilish dreams of fortune. But there were other men of simple faith, unsung Civil War heroes who adventured west to bring justice to places that had none. Those they called "The Justice Riders."
Okay, "devilish dreams of fortune" versus "men of simple faith?" Smells like Christian Fiction to me, and did the book really need four writers? One of those co-authors is Chuck's brother Aaron, who directed Missing in Action 3 and just about every movie Chuck made afterward. I think it's obvious that Ken Abraham and Tim Grayem are ghost writing for the Norris boys.
Eh, who cares. It's Chuck Norris for chrissakes, literally! (I got a million of 'em folks, and they all stink just as bad as that one. So get used to it.) I've been a fan of Chuck's since Good Guys Wear Black, so reading The Justice Riders is a given for me.
Yes, I will review it.
Hello. I just read all your posts about Chuck Norris and Walker, Texas Ranger. It seems that you're a true Chuck Norris fan as I am. Very cool!

I can't wait to see The Expendables 2 and especially Chuck Norris on a big screen. I think you already saw the teaser trailer of EX2, right? imo, Norris looks really great in it.
