The Blood Bond series is about Matt Bodine and Sam Two Wolves, two men who became blood brothers in their youth. Matt is a fast-drawing gunfighter, and Sam is half Cheyenne with a sharp mind and quick hands of his own. Together they wander the frontier looking for work and finding trouble, usually in the form of bandits, corrupt ranchers, or entire outlaw gangs.
William W. Johnstone started this series in 1989, and it ran for eight books through 1994 before going on a long hiatus. The series returned in 2006 with Slaughter Trail and continued through 2012, with J.A. Johnstone co-authoring the later entries. With sixteen books total, Blood Bond is one of the longer-running Johnstone partnership series.
