COULDN'T STOP READING IT!

This is the first Eidson book I have read and he is a wonderful writer. You will be on the mountain with the nuns, children and Nat. My son is wanting to read it now and I will read The Last Stand.

great story

This is an excellent book! This would make an excellent movie if they follow the story! Tom Edison is my favorite writer. He captures you from page one with his scene descriptions and subject manor.He takes you to places you cant begin to imagine going and takes you to the heart and soul of his characters I have to finish his books the same day , I cant wait to find out what happens next.I look foward to more stories from him.

A can't put down read!

I read this book in one day. The author's description of the wild west is as captivating as is the action. His description of the area now known as Monument Valley is so real you can taste the dust and feel the heat. If you love action, suspense, are interested in an age when people were tough and a passion for life meant something, this book is for you. I'd recommend it for 14yrs and up.

Excellent book!

Sister St. Agnes is a model Christian. Happy and morally upstanding, no matter what situation she is in. Willing to die for The Faith. Obviously not politically correct. There is no lack of action. Some of the corpses are described a little guesomely. I cried at the end!! Very touching.
