A wonderful classic western!
I absolutely loved hearing all about the purple sage, sweeping sunsets, and the horses running wild, what a treasure!
I do have a couple of cons, as this is my first Zane Gray book I don’t know if he writes all women like this, but Jane was pretty insufferable at times and my goodness, but he will just kill people off without any foreshadowing at all, so brace yourself because I certainly shed a few tears!
Excited to continue on to the next in the duology, The Rainbow Trail.
Ps I did immersive reading, where you read the book and listen to the audiobook at the same time, highly recommended!
