Not nearly as good as the first two. I gave them 5 stars each. This book had too much dialogue repeated, things that were overly explained, and way too pie-in-the-sky everything just falls into place. Also, the gun fighting was incidental at times. Frankly, I was rather let down considering how much I enjoyed the first two.

As Card Jordan goes forward with his plan to revolutionize the cattle shipping industry Card is wounded by killers from his past. He is laid up for a month and during this time finds that his cattle and surrounding cattle are being rustled. A son of Card's neighbor is murdered by the rustlers and Card tracks them down and archives justice for the family. I like the fact that Card is not afraid to show emotion when sad or hurt. This is a fast paced story with a good build of characters

Card's plan of shipping cattle slowly comes to fruition, but some cattle rustlers have stolen cows from Card's ranch and most of his neighbors, and they shoot one of Card's ranch hands and kill a close friend of Card's. Card is forced to put the US Marshall badge back on and starts hunting them down. In between all of the action, love finds Card, and just as the love story blossoms the book ends and forces you to read the next one.

It kept me turning the pages. At times it seemed more of a primer on how to start a business. One thing I don't like, and have mentioned it before is that closing the book out with some catastrophe a la a 1940s movie serials as a hook to make you buy the next book is pretty trite.

Getting better

If it wasn't for the new age slang it would be better. Forget about today and concentrate of the age of the story. Otherwise a good story.
Rock on!
