With a cast of strong characters, Reg Quist delivers a contemporary Christian western series with a few surprises along the way.

While on his honeymoon in The Truth Through the Storm, Danny can’t help but feel something is wrong. Upon arriving home, he and his newlywed find that a vicious storm has left their neighbors stranded. Feeling led to help—and with issues arising on the ranch and in his marriage—Danny wonders if the new Mrs. Framer will settle in and learn to lean on God.
During The Truth Through the Story, the Framers are excited to expand their family. But when tragedy hits the family next door, Danny feels duty-bound to help by buying their land. Now having to choose between writing or ranching, Danny works hard to decipher the message God is laying on his heart.

About the author
Reg Quist
31 books17 followersReg Quist’s pioneer heritage includes sod shacks, prairie fires, home births, and children’s graves under the prairie sod, all working together in the lives of people creating their own space in a new land.
Out of that early generation came farmers, ranchers, business men and women, builders, military graves in faraway lands, Sunday Schools that grew to become churches, plus story tellers, musicians, and much more.
Hard work and self-reliance were the hallmark of those previous great generations, attributes that were absorbed by the following generation.
Quist’s career choice took him into the construction world. From heavy industrial work, to construction camps in the remote northern bush, the author emulated his grandfathers, who were both builders, as well as pioneer farmers and ranchers.
It is with deep thankfulness that Quist says, “I am a part of the first generation to truly enjoy the benefits of the labors of the pioneers. My parents and their parents worked incredibly hard, and it is well for us to remember”.
Quist’s heart was never far from the land. The family photo albums testify to how often he found himself sitting on a horse, both as a child and into later life, when he and his wife owned their own small farm, complete with kids and horses.
Respect for the pioneers, working alongside skilled, tough workmen, and learning from them, marrying his high school sweetheart and welcoming children into the world, purchasing land for the family to grow on, and riding horses with the kids, all melded together to influence Quist’s life and writing. Over, and under, and wrapped around his life is Quist’s Christian heritage. This too, shows itself in his writing.
Quist’s writing career was late in pushing itself forward, remaining a hobby while family and career took precedence. Only in early retirement, was there time for more serious writing.
Quist’s writing interests lie in many genres including children’s work, short lifestyle stories, cowboy poetry, western novels, plus Christian articles and novels.
Woven through every story is the thought that, even though he was not there himself in that pioneer time, he knew some that were. They are remembered with great respect.

Good Read
Overall the book was a good read, the ending left a little to be desired. It was a long drawn out story with an unexpected and uneventful ending.
