Amazing

Such a well wrote and narrated book, the amount of detail really helped envelope me in a story that is absolutely amazing!!! 10/10

surprising story

When the story started, I was getting major Dark Tower vibes. Male Protagonist, having walked countless miles with a mysterious goal stumbles onto a farm, and relies on the kindness of strangers.

The author and I share a mutual discord channel, so part of me expected a supernatural story, and I'm glad for the direction this one went to

The tale is as desolate as the setting, the connection equally as barren. We go on this journey with Orson, as oblivious to the ending as he.

Visceral, beautiful, and gruesome. I am so glad for the connections made that lead me to this book 💚💚💚💚 Misters Nelson and Dickison worked well in bringing life to this book.

My only complaint is my brain could not focus enough to keep track of all the perspective changes. When the party interacted, there were several to keep track of, and one could be privy to any of their thoughts at any second. But that is more of a, "I can't pay attention enough to listen to this any slower," problem, and not a fault of Mr. Nelson's.

Honestly I would never have picked up this book without having the connections I did. All the Pretty Horses was required reading in AP English, and my family had read The Dark Tower series, and I wanted to before the movie came out. I don't gravitate to western styles. Now I'm beginning to rethink that decision.

Thank you for this tale. It will be bouncing around my brain for weeks to come.

All in all a pretty good story

At first I wasn't so sure but as I continued listening the more and more I enjoyed it. The Narration was done very well but with me being an animal lover a few chapters that in a lot of detail in the audio perspective left me wanting to skip ahead not wanting to hear the crying of the baby buffalo lol. But all in all solid read just wish the ending was a little more put together.

Captivating story

I love how real this story felt. I felt like I was right along on the trails. That real and intense feeling comes not only from the amazing sound design and narration, but also the word choice and flow of the story.
I also enjoyed how human this story was. Focusing on the characters and seeing what the west will bring out of people.

a bit slow.

editing was a bit sloppy. it will repeat the first 3 words several times throughout the story. and giving only the last names causes you to not really follow. there was a serious issue when there seemed to go back and forth in time line. which was wildly confusing for 15 minutes. there needs to a repeat of the year/time/setting so that way we can have a marker
