Review: Indecisive writing
Rating: 1 out of 5

The author uses pretty much every western plot into a supposedly 6-8 week journey from Missouri to Arkansas. They have run ins with the Arapahoe, Comanche, Utes, AND Mexican bandits. The characters are either too good, or a bad joke. The conversations jump from dialogue to dialect. Once again a novel characterized as historical fiction is not even close. Other than the use of  Missouri and Arkansas, a brief reference to the Sandy Creek Massacre, there were no "historical" moments, no place descriptions. I sort of skimmed through the majority of the book, but couldn't find a reason to really read this, nor the series
