- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5It’s addictive! Great story , characters and narration! I’m going to book number two right away!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A fantastic introduction to my newly found author. His name sounds suspect and am sure is a "nom de plume", This book made even better by narrator Gene Engene
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I'm hooked. Must listen to the whole series now. Beautifully written and wonderfully read!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Listening to it for the third time! Lots of ups and downs in the series... Very well written and very well read. If you like westerns it is a must read! Would make a great mini series !!
