Mountain Rage

Mountain Times #3

by John Legg

Having had enough of leading a fairly large brigade of trappers, giant mountain men Nathaniel Squire heads to the Rockies with just a few of his young friends. The small group is having a fine season, pulling in plenty of plews. But another group happens by and tells Squire that last year’s brigade, under Colonel Leander Melton, is in dire straits, having been raided by the Blackfeet under the direction of Jacob Meisner, an old enemy. Squire and his group plunge headlong into an effort to save Melton and his brigade — and then, one way or the other, take to the vengeance trail.

Reviews

[Charles Castell · Rating 5 out of 5]

Having had the opportunity to enjoy several of Mr. Legg's books it goes without saying that I am definitely thrilled with this extraordinary western episode. This story certainly is impressive throughout and there is never one dull moment from beginning to end. There are continuous thrilling episodes of ongoing adventures that satisfies all readers seeking to fulfill their desired intents.

This is definitely a five stars, plus, based on the author's apparent knowledge and research experience exhibited from beginning to end. The characters selected certainly were an impressive group that showed their camaraderie many times over. Too, the storylines were consistently impressive and unsurpassed in quality and action
I was somewhat dismayed in the ending, but to reveal my reasoning would definitely betray other readers of the pleasure to enjoy the story. Based on the profanity within the story, I cannot say the book is family-friendly, but it is definitely a heartwarming adventure worthy of you time to follow this exciting group of individuals.
Definitely recommend this book, as well as other releases by Mr. John Legg, who apparently does his best to entertain his readers with plenty of exciting adventures. If you are seeking excitement, the jump aboard the Legg express as the excitement never ceases!
