About this listen

They had settled a bloody score and put the turncoat McAfferty to rest in the snowbound Rockies. Slowly, painfully, the wounded Paddock and Scratch found their way back to the Crow village, where they were welcomed as brother and son. The people of Chief Arapooesh offered rest, healing, and home to the mountain men. Then a misunderstanding over a beautiful Crow woman drove the friends apart, propelling Scratch into the unforgiving wilderness on a lonely, dangerous quest. Paddock, too ill to travel, was at first unable to follow, unable to explain. But they were destined to meet again, and to reaffirm a bond deeper than blood, at the historic 1833 Green River Rendezvous. And together, they would face an enemy greater than either had ever known.

Great series.

I haven’t listened to a good Western in a long time.
Just happened to find this series on Audible plus and decided to try it.
I’m glad I did and I hope others that like this kind of fiction decide to listen to it as well.

Mountain Man, Titus Bass!

The tale gives a vivid account of the hard life of the mountain man. At the same time, it is balanced by the beauty of the wild country, and even more so by the love discovered by the Indian women. This truly is a saga of a particular way of life in the 1830s. The characters are so real, alive, and constantly alert in a land full of dangers. Exciting and thoughtful as you follow the characters in their daily lives. As I listen, I can’t believe Josiah Paddock did what he did to Titus Bass, aka Scratch. An apparent thoughtless act! I temporarily lost all interest in Paddock from that point. Naturally, this episode is explained later. You folks with the N-word phobia have been PC-brainwashed. The author even went out of his way for Scratch to explain that the word nigger did not refer to a “niggra” person, it was said to be a common expression used at the time by his kind. It is part and parcel of the story.

Epic book for Mountain Men

Absolutely loved this book. I really hope they do the whole Titus bass series of books to complete the collection. This book is loaded with beautiful story telling, thrilling action scenes and it really captures the American west of a by-gone era.

Crotchety

An unusual glimpse of the time period. Not sure I would recommend to tender ears though.

Great story, Terrible Narration!

Mr Johnston is a master story teller!
I have read all his Titus Bass and Josiah Paddock stories.
This Audible book fails, on the shoulders of this narrator.
I deleted it from my library, it is that bad.

Long and slow reading

The best parts of the story were the action scenes. I was constantly lost in the details and relationships between the characters.
