Your Say
Leonard's westerns are particularly good too. His last few novels were meh, but he has a terrific body of work and finally Hollywood figured his writing out and did his novels justice.

If you are interested in a terrific crime writer with great dialogue who also writes westerns, check out Loren Estleman. Seriously, you won't be sorry. The man can channel Dashiell Hammett and still is his own writer, and he's a genius with the language without being pretentious.
