Resumen del Editor

You can teach an old dog new tricks...with a six-gun!

When gold is discovered near the little town of No-Name, Colorado, the citizens are overjoyed at their good fortune...until trouble gallops down Maine Street on a horse straight out of Hell. For gold's closest companions are greed and murder, and every two-bit gunslick from the Atlantic to the Rockies is beating a path to the gold strike - which is practically on the doorstep of Smoke Jensen. They're looking to get rich quick...and never mind how it's done.

But this legendary mountain man never learned how to back away from a good fight - and this one promises to be a whopper.

Outnumbered a hundred to one, he recruits an army of his own: 20 aging but still lethal legends of the frontier in the violent sunset of their grizzled lives.

One thing you can count on: There's going to be a lot of blood spilled before anyone walks away with the gold.

Contains mature themes.

Gritty Western

Fast paced and action packed! A western tale with plenty of grit, violence, and justice served up by Smoke Jensen.

great book great narrator.

loved this book. I just recently found the mountain man books. I love the adventure and trials of smoke Jensen. these books are greatly written.

Great western outstanding narration

I've listened to a lot of William W. Johnstone's books but my real attraction is the narration of J.. Rodney Turner. He makes the characters come alive and his subtle changes in tone, volume, and pitch clearly delineate what character is speaking. Brilliant work. I'm now following this narrator as opposed to authors. FYI, you can search for narrators the same way you search for books.

Old west

Classic Cowboy books
Blood, Fighting , abuses
Gunfighters , Indians , many wagon trains. Then there are the Heroes!
Great education on living and survival

Real…very very real

Action packed, emotional, tender, terrifying, and even a little humor, I couldn’t stop listening. Thank you for the voiceover and your talent and thank you to the author for a great great story.

As Usual, It’s a Good Read/Listen

This book seems less violent than the First Mountain Man series. Lots less fighting, cracked bones and senseless shootings.

The birth of Big Rock, CO

I enjoyed this story. I must have been another range war which was going on all over the west in the 19th century during the western expansion.

The Death of Fontana!

The man known as Matt and his wife Sally are on the Sugarloaf in Colorado. Tilden Franklin of the Circle TF wanted the Sugarloaf and Matt’s wife for his own. Word spread that Charlie Star had been observed in the area. Charlie hated Tilden. Seventeen years ago Tilden had killed Charlie’s woman. As Tilden became more and more aggressive, Matt, or Smoke Jensen, gathered the small ranchers together to support each other. When Smoke met Charlie Star, Charlie sent out dozens of telegraphs to many mountain men that he and Smoke knew to come help. Preacher had raised Smoke, so Smoke was one of them. The last mountain man. 20-25 old mountain men came to the party, legends of the Wild West. The rape of a young girl and the murder of her young brother started a war.

Don'tCross Smoke

Smoke Jenson has no back up in him pressing forwardagaist evil until it is stamped out

Perfect Western

I've bought 10 books from this guy, and I've never been bored or disappointed. Graphic, violent, action packed, with deep, thorough plots, this guy makes Louie L'amore look like Dr Seuss. I will own his entire collection. #Fact
