Summary

California, 1862.

On the remote frontier in a distant corner of the new state, a military officer struggles to keep the peace between local Natives and remote settlers. Lieutenant George Crook also fights to uphold a truce between the untrusting local tribe and his own men - soldiers who are far from home and out of place in the isolated backcountry.

But, something is terribly wrong; whole Indian villages are strangely deserted. Soldiers are coming up missing. An ancient Native American evil has awakened, and it threatens to destroy everyone - whatever be their traditions or origin.

Crook finds he must join the local tribal chief in a fight for survival, battling to prevail against an odious and wicked foe. But, will such an alliance save their future, or does fate offer a more dreadful prospect to unity amongst former enemies?

The enemy of my enemy, is my friend.

When an ancient evil is on earthed it’s first casualty is civilization. It breeds on hate and picks up more demons to do its bidding at every turn. Indians look like they were slaughtered by military soldiers and the soldiers look like they were killed by the natives. When A squadron leader named crook gets orders to pick up the local chief immediately hang him. He questions these orders and decides to do things his own way. Instead he talks to the old chief about the horror that is plaguing their area. When he decides to work with the chief and his daughter, not everyone is on board. Can the truth be trusted or is crook right about him. This story is about fortitude, and oh no. It is a bout doing the right thing even when times are difficult. This book was so good and I thought Crook was a great honorable man and the chief although Honorable was disillusioned by so many devastating things in his life. That was a great book and I can’t wait to read more from this author. The narrator did such a great job I just love this book and hope the ending leads to a second book. Please forgive any grammatical or punctuation or errors as I am blind and dictate my reviews but all opinions are my own.

wow

I really enjoyed listening to Jordan Harbin. He is perfect narrator for this book.


Heads up, don't open old buried packages...
This great story is set in the time of unrest of 1860s . Gold mining and Native American unrest, with the civil war .
Once the evil is let free, and looking for its own revenge . The army, the American Natives and new settlers find themselves, having to work together.
Brilliant.

An uncomfortable read

A zombie story set in times when white people stole Native American lands and brutally killed off their people. However the zombies are more voodoo target driven zombies rather than The Walking Dead.

I was very uncomfortable with the fact that the author seemed to justify the army indiscriminately slaughtering Native American men, women and children who were just trying to stay alive and survive on their own land, but condemned Native American people when they retaliated and fought back. It doesn't seem plausible that the Chief would risk a tactic of revenge that would also kill his own people when so many of his people where killed off by the army. I would imagine he would want to try to keep as many of his people alive during this genocide. Within this context it doesn't make sense that the daughter of the Chief would all of a sudden start a romantic relationship with the very same white army man who has killed her people (no matter how the author tries to justify it). This story is very unrealistic, especially within the author's parameter's for this story. I also didn't think the narrator was the best fit for this audiobook, his voice did not really differentiate between characters, they all tended to sound the same, and his voice wasn't serious enough for this subject matter.

I was given this book for free of my own choosing and voluntarily left this review.
