What did you love best about Silently Beats the Drum?

I do love Mr Benton's writing. Tons of action in this one, great hero, great characters. Wow

Who was your favorite character and why?

hard to say on this I did really like old Moses, felt like he was my friend. Felt same way about Buffalo Hump the warrior. Completely different guy but brave,funny, deadly. Jeb is cool and the bad guys are bad ass.

What does Robert Thaler bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Yu mean the narrator? Pretty incredible. He did so many different people with so many voices and they were real. Wow.I was amazed.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I laughed a lot bout all the different ways guys were getting killed. Some of the death stuff was funny in a good sort of way. The bad dude was actually kind of funny. that he was able to last but I won't say more, don't want to spoil it. I was surprised how sad I felt when the mother lost her child and the slave girl was sad too but funny at times. Mr Benton really wrote some fine people into this thing, its not a standard western. I think I came away knowing more about things like slavery.

Any additional comments?

I could do without all the food talk. its why I knocked the book down a star, the cooking sounded all the same and like I wanted to get back to the action. But this book is one of the best I have heard , real entertaining and much better than most all the other westerns I heard before.
