Dim ond Lewsyn Lwcus all ei stopio – ond tybed ddaw e i’r fei a dod â theyrnasiad gwylliaid y gorllewin i ben â llond casgen o dar a sachiad o blu?

Adolygiad y Cyhoeddwr / Publisher Review

Sharp-shooting cowboy Lewsyn Lwcus is on the trail of Jesse James, the Wild West's most infamous outlaw. True to his Welsh heritage, Jesse James looks up to his hero Twm Siôn Cati, but somehow his ignoble intention of stealing from the rich to give to the poor has long been forgotten. With his Shakespeare-quoting brother Frank by his side, and his bumbling cousin Cole Younger getting things wrong, Jesse James starts holding up the locomotives criss-crossing the plains. Even though detectives from the famous Pinkerton Agency are called in to sort things out, it’s clear that only Lewsyn Lwcus can arrest the spiralling progress of the James Gang and put pay to Jesse James’ convoluted sense of justice. But will he oblige, and end the pillaging reign of his band of brigands with a lick of tar and a sackful of feathers?
