Publisher's summary

Columbine, newly returned from school in Denver to her beloved Colorado range land, must face four men in her life who signify for her either happiness and love or sorrow and pain. Among them is a mysterious rider - a man of middle age, gentle and kind, but so terrible a gun fighter that they called him "Hell Bent" Wade. Wade will come to play a fateful part in all their lives.

The Mysterious Rider is a romance and adventure story that is richly evocative of the Western plains and mountains.

Westward ho! Listen to more from Zane Grey.

Totally unpleasant

Though Zane Grey has been a favorite when it comes to Westerns, the reader for this and it's follow on, book 2, had the reading skills of a junior high school kid. We ended up discarding 12 CDs as it was so unpleasant...

Powerful characters and story.

Performance could have been better. The reading was slower than the characters interaction would have been.

Bad bad reader

I couldn't make it through the story. I tried numerous times. The reader was so monotone, please don't waste your money. I live to read his books, but never will I listen to one again.
