When the world of Star Wars is in the toilet, this is a refreshing and excellent take on a story that will scratch that itch!

this was a really good finish to an excellent trilogy! Washburn lets you know at the end of the book, that there's a lot more to come which makes it more satisfying and makes it more exciting. this feels just like Star Wars. It also feels a lot like dune. It also feels a lot like Halo. It also feels a lot like guardians of the Galaxy. My point is, it's got a really good blend of so much beloved sci-fi that it will scratch the itch if you're looking for a great sci-fi story and love all of those I just listed. My favorite part of it was the imagery and the vivid colors and descriptions of this new to me world. This trilogy is well worth your time!

What an amazing ride! I loved this story and the characters. I kept thinking I knew where it was going to go, and then it would change! At first I thought it was just like OG Star wars, and then it was nothing like it at all. The imagery that the author used was stark and vivid and it helped to make the characters pop out with memorable quality. This is well worth your time!

This is a great sequel! It feels so familiar to other sci-fi or adventure stories, yet has such different characters and changes in the plot that it makes it a whole new and fresh experience. One moment it nearly draw on concepts like Star Wars, Firefly or Halo, and the next it takes you to a place you have absolutely never been and gives you a ride that is unique and very entertaining!
I can't wait for the third book!
The narrator is rock solid and does an excellent job making very clear distinctions between characters, while doing a great job painting the pictures and emotions that the author has created in this new world.

While being autobiographical, this book and the stories found therein, are interesting and entertaining. The stories and real life experiences, genuinely take you to the old west and an entirely different world. Treasures of this kind, are invaluable to understanding the generations of powerful individuals who quite literally blazed trails for the rest of society. In hearing these stories, one not only realizes what a tiny contribution they are to understanding that world, but they are also transported there in small part by the imagery and personal touch of the author. This is absolutely worth your time if you enjoy any tales of adventure or the old west. It is particularly noteworthy for those with pioneer or latter-day Saint heritage.
The narrator of this book doesn't excellent job and seems to tell it in a way that makes you believe he was there.

This is an absolute Christmas classic! Jim Dale does an amazing job bringing these beautiful characters to life. There is not a fictional piece that can make the holiday better.
