"The James Best books...are about the best new Western series to come along since Larry McMurtry."—Larry Winget, True West Magazine

"James D. Best is arguably one of the best writers of westerns." —Alan Caruba, Bookviews

"I have to say its one of the best western books I’ve read in a long time. The characters, the plot, everything seem so real. You’ll find yourself lost in the book—the fast pace keeps it interesting." — Maritza Barone, Woman'sDay
