"You know you are reading a good book when you don't want it to end. Well, as the book thundered toward its conclusion, I didn't want it to end.... and when it did, I cried! "As the action intensifies, the book becomes mesmerizing, meaningful and magical..... the reader is 'on the hook, ' but Dutch takes care of the reader, too.... his willingness to be vulnerable and explore the complex emotional landscape of the characters is the hallmark of a great read. I can't wait to be back on the prairie with Tom, Soft Cloud, Buck and their ponies for the next two parts of the trilogy!"
