Quote preview background for Hugh Howey
He__ only ever seen a gun once, a smaller one on the hip of that old deputy, a gun he__ always figured was more for show. He stuffed a fistful of deadly rounds in his pocket, thinking how each one could end an individual life, and understanding why such things were forbidden. Killing a man should be harder than waving a length of pipe in their direction. It should take long enough for one__ conscience to get in the way.
