I was speaking like a prospector by the end of this one! From the language used to the descriptions of the setting itself: I really felt like I was in the Wild West. I wasn’t planning on reading it until late August, but the cover kept popping up everywhere and I was eager to try reading a Western novel–something I had never experienced before–so I decided to post-pone some books and bump this one up to the top. I won this book through a contest on Lola’s Hit Or Miss blog and immediately loved the cover. It has now been updated to include the newest publications in the series.** Why I Picked it Up / My Expectations: **This post was originally posted as a Single Sunday review of the first book of the series.
