What are some genuinely good pulp novels/ novellas? Looking specifically for westerns but would be open to noir, detective, crime. Stuff with decent prose and alot of blood and seedy characters.

The Beetle Leg

I only know of fantasy, in which I would recommend the following works
Fafhrd and the Grey Mouser
Conan
John Carter (Princes of Mars)
>>
Pop. 1280

Everything from Jim Thompson is amazing crime noir pulp, you'd have to read him in small doses because he uses the same themes over and over.
>>
King Solomon's Mines
Alan Quatermain
She

All by H. Rider Haggard
>>
Lovecraft. The Necronomicon collection.
>>
Puzo - Godfather
Shakespeare - Titus Andronicus
>>
True Grit!

Just finished The Ox-Bow Incident last night. Not bloody, but other than that, I think it may be just what you are looking for.

Also, you might enjoy The Walking Drum by Louis L'Amour.
