The Price of Gold

A wagon train winding through the remote reaches of the Rocky Mountain high country can attract plenty of scavengers - some of them human - like Vic Bedell and his gang of cutthroats. All he wants is the women, who can be traded for gold mine supplies...or used for whatever else he has in mind. But he didn't count on Preacher leading that train.

The Color of Blood

Bedell's first mistake is leaving the First Mountain Man for dead. His second mistake is underestimating Preacher's strength...and cunning. And Preacher needs all he can get to lead 150 helpless ladies out of captivity...through 1500 miles of unforgiving territory filled with hostile Indians - and the deadliest threat of all: Bedell and his wild avengers....

I enjoy this series. Preacher, the protagonist is a mountain man taking a group of over 150 women
West, 1500 miles over treacherous terrain to meet their future husbands. There is some Indians that are hostile. Even worst than that is gangs of white men that are thieves who want to take the women and use, abuse and then sell these women. They didn’t anticipate Preacher. He was leading these ladies and he was a forced to be reckoned with. Especially after they had been ambushed, and these men killed Preacher’s beloved horse. Once he got the ladies to their destination,he went out his criminals who took and killed not only his friends, but horse. Great book and excellent narration, don’t miss it!

Great Story

Fun book, very entertaining. Wished The Lord’s name was used so much - a bit distracting.

Sound was very difficult to try to listen to. I’m. 82 years old and I enjoy listening to a good western.

Great story.

Wow, These books are just getting better and better as they go on. Love listening to Rodney’s voice narrate these books reminds me so much of Sam Elliott.

I really enjoyed this, my second of the Preacher series. I enjoy following along the routes using google maps. Having been near or around some of the locations makes these books even more interesting. I will be selecting another audiobook in the series, and one narrated by J. Rodney Turner.
The Preacher is that rarest of men, which can only be forged by such circumstances as those few who blazed trails of the western frontier.

I really enjoy this series, the only drawback is that the narators voice is so low that it is difficult to hear clearly at times when I am trying to listen while driving. Other than that it is great all around.

Another great ride
