Summary
In this thrilling epic of the American West, New York Times best-selling authors William W. Johnstone and J. A. Johnstone capture the human side of the frontier experience in all its glory, grit, and grandeur - through the eyes of one remarkable teenage boy.
Leaving their Pennsylvania home to forge a new life in the untamed Oregon Territory of 1845, the Colter family is ambushed by a kill-crazy gang of cutthroats on the Oregon Trail. Fifteen-year-old Tim Colter manages to escape and hide - only to return and find his parents butchered, his sisters Nancy and Margaret missing, and one last killer waiting for his return.
Forced to fight for his life, the young Colter embarks on a perilous journey across a lawless frontier, hoping to save his sisters and salvage the dream they lived for. But first Tim has to figure out how to survive. Luckily he finds a new friend in Jed Reno, a grizzled one-eyed trapper who has lived in the Rocky Mountains since the 1820s - and who was attacked by the same gang that ambushed Tim's family.
Together the mountain man and the greenhorn set out after the marauders, blazing a trail of vengeance that leads them to one of the deadliest men in the territory. With danger at every turn and death just a heartbeat away, Colter has no choice but to grow up fast - one bullet at a time.

Great western yarn
Loved the book, and the development of the main characters. Old school kind of western that just works so well.

I'm no expert, but I found this book mighty fine.
I can't comment on writing skill or plot depth.
However, what I can say is that I really enjoyed this book. I am bias in that I adore tales from the real wild west of America and for me, this book satisfied that bias.
I would reccomend, especially to anyone who enjoyed the red dead redemption game series.

Hard to put down.
The reader gave the words emotion. You could see John Wayne playing "Big Medicine". That may be why he liked the story also.

Really enjoyed this story. Very exciting.
The descriptions of the landscapes, the horses and the indians. And Renos pride of the boy. Very touching.

was ok but nothing great
I thought one of the characters the narrator made out to be very like John Wayne the story was decent but nothing great and I was slightly disappointed but that's my fault the joys of reading and listening is you yourself make picture the scenes to others this would have been a good book to me it was nothing more than ok however I have. given it a credible 3 stars
