Reading other authors can also inspire ideas. I'm not talking about plagiarizing. I mean only that it gets your mind working. I'm often struck with ideas while reading that have nothing to do with the book I'm reading.(less)

Don Robertson writes the West like no one else, with authenticity, great detail, and super characters. Josh is a hero through and through. And there’s even a romance. You just can’t beat Robertson.

Fantastic read

I love Linda Broday’s books. You can always count on her to deliver a good story. The historical accuracy of this one is what you can expect from her. The surprise at the end was a delicious reward. Great characters.
