I always love coming back to this series after reading a few other books. I feel like it was written specifically for my tastes, this entry more so than any other thus far. "Mountain Devil" is the first to venture into the horror genre and I won't say much more than that except that I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. I'm impressed by David Robbins' writing, especially his ability with this tale set a different genre without losing any of the hallmarks of the "Wilderness" series.

I really enjoy reading his novels, but the last three has gotten me to thinking. I normally give his books a five stars, but I got to drop it down. Why, because he don't allow any of the characters you hope would survey. This novel holds your attention and interest, but at the end, it has absorbed all your hope that others would make it out, to tell about the creatures.

That Nate. What a guy.

I wish there was more at the end, instead of what unfolded at the outskirts of the village.

Very enjoyable! I love reading this series, Nate King is a great character, and I do love stories about Mountain Men. Without spoilers, I wish we found out a bit more at the end, but sometimes the best decision is to move on and not dig too deep.

In short, mountain man Nate "Grizzly Killer" King meets Bigfoot! As good as all the others I've read, maybe even just a little better.

Interesting Bigfoot take
