Rate this book
He’s fought for vengeance. Now he must fight for his future.

Card Jordan has avenged his family, exposed a high-profile government conspiracy, and revolutionized the Texas cattle industry. With his thriving business and the bold, beautiful Maxine Page by his side, he’s closer than ever to the life he’s always dreamed of. But one frontier still remains—starting a family of his own.

When a botched robbery leaves Maxine gravely injured, Card vows to bring the outlaws to justice. As he tracks the thieves, he stumbles upon a deeper conspiracy at a nearby farm, and once again Card takes up his guns to defend what's right. But with every fight, there’s a cost—and this time, the stakes have never been higher.

Can Card leave his gunslinging days behind and build the life he's always wanted? Or will this final battle rob him of his future?

Day of Reckoning is the fourth installment in the Card Jordan series and perfect for readers who love classic Westerns with rich historical detail, strong heroes, and plenty of gunfire.

Being kind and giving it a 4 as it is light and easy reading, but at same time it is getting predictable. This is a bit longer chapter wise than the previous three, but I guess b/c there are more bad guys to bring to justice in the evil family. The maturity and sagacity of the 17 yr old hero is so far beyond his yrs both in his life responsibilities and his economic activities. This does add to the allure and charm of the novel, but to me sort of makes it fantasy. I mean build a financial empire in a few months and then see the hand writing on the wall that the bubble is going to burst, so sell quick. Wish we could all be that wise. Anyhow, plan to continue reading to see how the series ends.

I am enamored and overwhelmed with the way Monty R Garner writes the Card Jordan series. I’ve been reading western fiction for over 20 years. I’m 72 and spend hours reading westerns. I look for certain things from writers that keep me interested from beginning to end. Most of all I look for writers who include God in their stories through prayer or other means. I’m love to have a connection with Monty because I live in Duncan Oklahoma and he is from Sawyer, Oklahoma.

This is a great story with plenty of adventure. There is robbery, murder and orphans used for slave labor. Card was only 16 yrs old when his family was murdered but he rode out to seek vengeance and justice for his family. He matured quickly into a man after trailing and killing each man involved with the murder of his parents. He rescued the orphans from their torturers, married Maxine and adopted the 5 orphans. Good read.

A little gravitas here

Of the 3 previous books this was the best. I liked the children's story featured in this book
It was nice to have a reprive fr om the bang bang your dead saga featured in the earlier books. There was still the killing ...what would you expect in a cowboy novel..
But not so reckless it seems.

Rudimentary setups to justify violence

Main story line and side vignettes same old theme, the innocent, the violent, the hero savior... La a note to follow sew, and there, enough words to satisfy review criteria.

Detail

The use of firearms and their discription should be clearer. Makes and models. Never is the term six shooter. C J Petit was the best author for this.
