On your horses, boys! by Jordan Mckenzie
Fandom: Magnificent Seven
Pairing: None - Chris and Ezra centric
Length: Novel length, 34 chapters
Author on LJ: Unknown
Author's website: Jordan Mckenzie's fiction archive.
Why this must be read:
I love what if scenarios that extend from the original episodes; and this is a great re-telling of the Season two episode Vendetta. The story deviates from the original script about 3/4 of the way through the episode and takes us on an involving ride.
Deprived of their original prey, the bad guys of the piece, the Nichols clan, make good on their threat of "excruciating" pain when Ezra sends them on a wild goose chase. The author fleshes out the personalities of the Nichols, both sons and mother. Mrs Nichols comes across as a true haridan, there is no regret or remorse here; and her sons are just as bad. They stop at nothing in their pursuit of retribution. Not only injuring Ezra and Chris, but terrorising the township as well. The townfolk who appear throughout the story become real characters and of course the rest of the Seven are there too, doing what they do best.
