First in the best-selling series the McCabes.

The story of a family building a ranch in the rugged wilderness of post-Civil War Montana, and of a young man seeking his family and his destiny. If you liked the movie Open Range or the TV shows Big Valley and Lancer, or the novels of Louis L'Amour and Ralph Compton, then this might be for you.

I love the entire series. I've been looking for a good solid western series with decent narration and this one goes above and beyond my expectations. The narration is gritty, raw, and that deep sexy gravilly voice that I love served up with my westerns. Very smooth narration.
I particularly love this first book and the rich characters and histories it introduces to the audience.
I don't think romance is this authors strong suit, but I don't need much romance in my westerns - the way they live and the rich descriptions of the landscapes is enough romance for me with a western. Plenty of positive things about this series/book - like all series there are a couple of so/so books - but sometimes I think that has to do with the characters we have come to like and which ones we really aren't invested in that sways our interest in a book within a series. But Brad Dennison really has a talent for bringing characters to life with rich personalities. By the time I got to Johnnie McCabe in the series I was really pleased with the author's improvement in character interaction and it reminded me a little of Larry McMurtry - which is a HUGE compliment.
Highly recommend this series.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading each book in Brad Dennison’s series about the McCabe family. When I ran across the first in the series available in audiobook format, I wondered if it would be as engaging. I was pleasantly surprised, and found J. Rodney Turner’s reading to be one of the best “western” voices I’ve listened to, to date.
Easily recommended!
I’m hopeful he is the “narrator” for the complete series!!

Authentic Storyteller

the books are awesome made better by the narrator, J. Rodney Turner. Turner kind of ruined all the other narrators in this genre.

another good one
