Editorial Reviews

I've always suspected that cowboys are really Indians in disguise. Joseph Marshall's astonishing new Western is proof…Marshall has tapped into an old form and infused it with a slightly different brand of knowledge to produce a swift, compelling read. Simply put, if you like Westerns, you'll love this one.
—The Washington Post

David Treuer

Marshall reads the passages told from the Lakota viewpoint…[and] John Terry reads the passages about the settlers…The two voices combine to show the story’s shifts in perspective well…Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award.”

Readers who love to hear a harness creak or the whistle of an arrow or love to see snow snake across a drifted valley floor will revel in Marshall’s West…If you like Westerns, you’ll love this one.”
