Book Description

Wilderness December 2007
Nate King likes to think he's taught his family everything they need to know about living in the wilds of the Rocky Mountains. And now they're about to be put to the test. What was supposed to be a fun trip up to the high country quickly turns into a desperate struggle just to survive. From rattlesnakes to a flash flood, Mother Nature has unleashed a bitter arsenal. But the worst threat of all comes from mankind as four vicious murderers stalk the forest, ready to finish off anyone left alive.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best, December 12, 2007
This review is from: Pure of Heart (Wilderness) (Mass Market Paperback)
Continuing in the standard of excellence, David Thompson, gives us a novel that shows exactly why readers love this series. Adventure. Live by the seat of your pants. Resourcefullness. Real love.

Wilderness has always been an anomaly on bookshelves. I like them becuase it makes me want to become a mountain man, to live in the wild. I long to look out my door and see, smell, and feel the wild. Hungy...kill. Tired...sleep.

The latest book is no exception. If this is your first or 54th Wilderness book you will read, you will like it.

5.0 out of 5 stars I couldn't put it down until I finished it!, November 25, 2007
By 
Kat K. (Castle Rock, CO) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pure of Heart (Wilderness) (Mass Market Paperback)
This is an excellent entry into the continuing King family saga in the almost two decade old WILDERNESS series. Think mountain man, Little House on the Prairie and western action adventure all wrapped into one. Nate King and his family have faced all kinds of crises in their struggle to survive in a pristine wilderness setting with regular clashes with Indians, fierce critters, and an encroaching civilization.

This story begins with a tale of four vermin who are meaner than snakes and are cold blooded killers. They are on a trail of death and destruction. Nate King's daughter, Evelyn and her male companion Dega are on a day trip to see some of the local wildlife in the mountains. They get more than bargained for.

It is a story of a budding romance laced with humor that turns into a head on collision with evil in its purest form.
Not unlike her father, Evelyn King has grit and this story gives her a chance to prove it.

As always, the author provides the reader with cliffhanging adventure and superb storytelling. I stayed up to 2:00 a.m. reading this book from cover to cover! Excellent read and highly recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars Sin, Sex and the Wilderness, December 18, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Pure of Heart (Wilderness) (Mass Market Paperback)
An adventure series that continues with the same fervor that brought America to see the West from a mountain man's eyes. The battle for freedom from advancing civilization and the laws that protect those that have from those that have not.
Mix in a teen's innocent romance, a father's desire to keep his daughter from wedding before she is eighteen and ruthless behavior on the part of four desparadoes from the East. And you have the making of another well written classic from David Thompson.

This series is for the mountain man in all of us. With the lure of the wilderness, the challenge to survive natural disasters, Indians and an occasional marauding grizzly Mr. Thompson creates a true picture of the West and Nate's struggle to live his Dream and find the gold his uncle promised was there for the taking. Thompson's descritive words add to the feeling that you are there with his family.

You can rest assured that the ending will be a surprise. And like me, will have to read the book all the way through to find out what comes next. This series is for all readers who enjoy stories of the West without graphic sexual encounters but a rough and tough family and their friend Shakespeare McNair living in the West following the end of the fur trade era.
