And at the feet of its wise Masters, Lanoree Brock learned the mysteries and methods of the Force - and found her calling as one of its most powerful disciples.

Story
In 1916, Mexican bandit Pancho Villa raided the southwestern border town of Columbus, New Mexico. Three hundred American soldiers fought four hundred attackers in a battle that ended with one of the last cavalry charges in U.S. history. Outraged, Congress ordered the U.S. Army to invade Mexico in pursuit of Villa. For the first time, trucks and airplanes accompanied U. S. cavalry into combat, practicing for America’s entry into World War I. Influenced by Sam Peckinpah, Rambo-creator David Morrell dramatizes this epic era in American history through the eyes of a civilian scout old enough to have been in the Civil War, the Indian wars, Cuba, and the Philippines. Knowing that his ways are finished, he teaches a young recruit about the past, at a cost he never expected to pay.

Good story line
Good story, looking forward to the next book. Didn’t really care for the narrator though.

Strong story, a tad long
Worth a credit. Warning: the book is more than 20 years old and feels a bit dated.
I prefer single readers to casts, but the story itself is strong and held my attention most of the way. I did feel, however, that it began to grow a bit predictable and I was ready for the story to wind up about 45 minutes before it actually did.
I did not find the reading too clipped or fast. I'll read more Morrell after this one.

Good novel with bad narration
BROTHERHOOD OF THE ROSE, Book 1 in David Morrell's Mortalis espionage series, was first released in 1984 and set at that time. It is a 5 star novel ruined by Morrell's own horrid narration. David Morrell is a giant of the mystery/thriller genre. I believe I'll listen to his First Blood soon. That is his 1972 first novel that introduced John Rambo who was made famous by the Rambo movies. Eric G. Dove narrates the First Blood/Rambo series so I can be confident of first rate narration.
I seldom reduce overall ratings based on bad narration but in this case the narration is so horrid that a major down rating is justified.

I loved this when I read it, loved it as an audible.
This series of books needs to be a movie. Takes place in the 80’s but is still relevant now.

Story vg narration subpar
This is my 2nd time with this story. I read it and now listened to it. The idea around the book is quite inventive in terms of how characters were recruited and some of the safe havens involved. I'd say more about those but don't want to spoil things.
Unfortunately, the reading of the audiobook is very bad. One of the worst I've ever heard. Buy the book.
I've heard there are some other books including the characters and I may have to look into those.
