Still recovering from recent wounds, Talon and his small group are heading for the Ohio River in the hopes of gaining transportation downriver. But inadvertently becoming a target for retribution after saving two young kids from a marauding gang. With no intention of becoming involved in the local power struggle, Talon's small group decides to change their plans of heading straight for the Ohio River. Instead, they attempt to cross the vast rugged mountains of West Virginia on horseback to throw off their pursuers. The consequences of their attempts to avoid conflict inadvertantly leads them straight into the middle of the local power struggle.

About the author

Growing up in the Ozarks, David spent a great deal of his time growing up with his Grandfather, learning how to fish, hunt, and trap. Joining the Marine Corps (0341) at the age of 17, he enjoyed his time in the grunts, but switched over to Counterintelligence after picking up Sergeant. Staying with the USMC for just over 20 years, he retired in 1998 at the age of 38, attaining the rank of CWO-2.

After retiring he has worked for a few different government agencies and as a contractor in Iraq and Afghanistan. Still active as a contractor, he enjoys writing in what spare time he can find, with his first published book coming out in May 2019, “Lone Star Odyssey-First Steps”. His second book in the series "Obstacles" came out in December 2019. Followed by the third in the series, Choices in 2022. Book four, Decisions, was released in August of 2023. Book five of the series should be released early spring of 2024.

Living in Texas with his wife and kids, most of his time outside of work is spent with his wife and kids, their horses and dogs, and with repairs around the ranch.

second time around

Second time reading this one and still holds your attention. This is one of the best series ever. Love Tallon, there is no bs about him. He has no time to tiptoe around your feelings, just get on with it.

Love the series.

I enjoyed the series, the characters all blended very well. I did not like how the book ended, please is there another book to finish their way home.

Intriguing Storyline

I like this author and his tale kinda sings to us older folks who grew up as hill and farm folk who ended up seeing a lot of the world. I sincerely hope this isn’t the end of the story as there are a lot of loose ends to tie up.

Amateurish writing

Too much minutia. Poorly proofread/edited. Terrible spelling, grammar & sentence structure. Use of words that are not even words. Contradictory statements. The story is interesting but poorly written.

I like the series. I like the characters. Ilike this book. I don’t like the way it ended. Is this the end of the series? Is there another book coming?
