Blood Bond #2: Brotherhood of the Gun [Paperback]

William W. Johnstone (Author)

Book Description

Series: Blood Bond | Publication Date: February 7, 2006

Young Matt Bodine and Sam Two Wolves became blood brothers on the day the rancher's son saved the halfbreed's life, forging a bond no one could ever break. Beneath the Montana big sky, Matt learned the ways of the Cheyenne from his friend. And as years passed, a legend grew of the breed and the white man who rode together - and who could jerk killing iron with the best of them...The blood brothers ride into the blistering heat and wind of the Arizona badlands. They're hard on a trail that leads deep into Apache territory toward the Mexican border, where a gang of desperados are running guns to the Apache and white-slaving kidnapped children. Along the way, Matt and Sam hook up with two companions: a prideful mountain man who lost his granddaughter in an Indian raid, and a young woman in search of her brother. Now, with outlaws ahead of them and warring Apaches on every side, it's time for some hard-case frontier justice along a trail blazed by bullets - and lined with bodies.

Brotherhood of the Gun is the 2nd book using William W Johnston's two latest charactors and a most exciting tale, framed in the Arizona Territory during the Apache Wars.

An excellent read for any lover of the old west.

4.0 out of 5 stars Another series in the author's usual high standard., November 2, 2006

This review is from: Blood Bond #2: Brotherhood of the Gun (Paperback)

I enjoyed this book and was set to wondering if the author was going to cross link this series with the mountain man series when Smoke Jenson was mentioned and when they linked up with a man who knew him. It didn't happen. One wonders if one day (how many books in the future) it will.

5.0 out of 5 stars The ride to rescue young girls from slavery, March 20, 2008

This is another of the stories in the series, and hard to put down once started.

Matt and Sam Two Wolves discover that a slaver is working with renegade Indians to raid small towns and isolated farms and ranches, killing adults and spiriting away young girls.

The girls will be sold to the captain of a cargo ship turned slave vessel, who will transport the girls to various countries where young American girls will bring large sums of money.

They initially encounter Dick Wellman, an old mountain man, and his companion, Laurie, who is seeking her brother somewhere in the West. Dick is trying to find his granddaughter, Jenny, who has been taken by the Indians and presumably sold to Lake.

They track the children to a fortress in Mexico, and with liberal use of dynamite free Jenny and the other young girls.

Then ensues a series of encounters with the criminals and their Indian partners, during which Dick is killed. He had willed his ranch to Laurie and Jenny, and in the end Matt and Sam ride away leaving Laurie sad to lose him.

This is a must-read for anyone who loves Western fiction.
