Five Star Review for "The Nations" by film/TV star, Alex Cord.
THE NATIONS
Review
From the first page, you are transported to another time and place. Ken Farmer and Buck Stienke put you on the street. You see and smell the dust wafting off the slapped coat and sense danger immediately. The whole book is rich with knowledgeable authenticity. The language, the weapons, the equipment, all ring true. These writers plunge you into the colorful reality of a fast-moving tale, packed with genuine human emotions, fierce anger, tender affection, vengeance, and retribution. Villains abound, so vile, you want to see them fed to lions.
A fresh, intriguing, look at former slaves serving as U.S. Marshals enforcing the law after the war. A big tough, black bear of a man reveals a caring heart as he offers his home and family to a white boy and his sister orphaned by violence. An unexpected surprise in the touching depth of a relationship between a dying outlaw and the Marshal who kills him. Great dialogue. Action packed, blood and guts aplenty. With admirable skill, the authors blend violence and tenderness to move the reader to care about the characters. You’ll meet, You'll meet the faithful and loyal 'Boot,' who reminds me of my dog, 'Dallas,' and then there are the people, Bass Reeves, Molly Allgood, Tobe Bassett, Lyman Pusley and charming Ben Larson, and when you get to the end you’ll be like me, looking for the sequel.
Happy page turning.
