Revue de presse

Blakely writes with a beauty that rivals the Big Bend country or the Palo Duro at sunset. --Terry C. Johnston, author of the Plainsman series Shortgrass Song leaves me a bit stunned by its epic scope and the power of the writing. Excellent!--Elmer Kelton, award-winning author of The Day the Cowboys Quit Blakely brings a fresh and wonderful new voice to the Western. Readers will hear more from him, and all of it will be good.
