Book Reviews of The Lone War Cry: A Western Novel
Book Review: Exciting western with memorable characters
Summary: 5 Stars
The author has utilized his extensive and impressive knowledge of western history to create engaging characters and an exciting multi-layered storyline. You find yourself invested in character challenges/hardships, battles, deceit, love, crime, evil, incredible struggles, honor, humor, determination and fortitude....all told through Mr. Miller's ability to take his reader on this journey with him. A story rich in gripping drama; I was stunned with the ending which clearly left this reader wanting more. An excellent western with engrossing character dynamics and multi-layered stories as rich as anything that has ever been produced for theatre or television. This is one novel you will encourage your friends to read.
Summary of The Lone War Cry: A Western Novel
The Oregon Territories circa 1850 are home to the Blackfoot, Shoshone, and Crow, among many other warring tribes. The majesty of the untamed rivers and mountain ranges have provided a backdrop to the ever-present conflicts between these proud peoples, but contact with the white man is changing the balance of power in unimaginable ways. Bitter events make enemies of Lame Elk of the Shoshone, tragic in his rise to prominence, and Two Horns of the Blackfoot, reluctant in his call to leadership. Separately, these two warriors must lead their people against a myriad of threats, not the least of which include disease, famine, and almost constant battle. As life continues unabated in the Indians' struggle for dominance, the white man is making deeper inroads into the western United States, with adventurers and criminals seeking their fortunes in a lawless land. Driven into the mountains to escape a manhunt, a falsely accused young man named Corby ends up saving Donovan, the ex-marshal pursuing him. The two unlikely friends travel through the Oregon Territories, where Corby finds he has an uncanny ability with a gun -- and establishes something of an unwanted reputation. The Lone War Cry follows these unforgettable characters through numerous hardships and challenges until circumstance links their stories together, driving them to their dramatic conclusions.Westerns Books
