As a child of the true American West, I grew up with Louis L'Amour. I have always loved his westerns and especially the Sackett books. All of them are great. Although I grew up a cowboy in the original sense of the word, my favorite Sackett novels are the first four. Maybe because it is a part of the world I never knew, who knows. No one who has any kind of adventurous spirit could dislike this book. It has everything, the wild Appalachian Mountains to the open seas and tropical ports full of pirates and swordsmen. Barnabas may be my favorite Sackett and Kin Ring is definitely a fitting son. This book is a must read even if you could never get into Louis' western novels. There is something for everyone here.

First of all..if you have kids, encourge them to read the Sackett novels. They are full of history, mystery, and adventure. Along the way they just might pick up some long forgoten values missing in today's youth.This is the 3rd book in the Sackett Series, Kin Ring, Son of Barnabas Sackett, sets out on a journey to put a cramp in the slave trade. A young white girl is kidnapped, and Kin Ring gets her back, only to find her kidnapped again by slave traders while he searches for another who has been long missing. On land or on the sea, Louis L'Amour knows how to tell a story. If you have never read LL, you are in for a surprise! I was! Lay aside all your misconceptions and dive into a LL novel. You won't be sorry!

Great book, paperback in good condition. Author does a great job of discribing the period and events. Very readable. Want to read the complete series. Shipping pricey,

This story follows Barnabas Sackett's son Kin as he discovers an injustice and attempts to correct it. The story is easy to follow, is well-written, and I enjoyed it very much. I will continue to read this series.

The Warrior's Path kept me wanting more and to know what was going to happen next. Historically I learned a lot about the time period and the life of the early settlers and explorers. I would recommend this book to others.Western Adventure

Another GREAT book in the Sackett series! So much adventure, history & geography. The Sackett family & friends continue!

What can I say. Mr. Lamour was a genius who knew how to add fascinating little snippets of western lore to keep his readers on the hook.
This book is as good as any he ever wrote. Highly recommended. I just
ordered 5 more of his books from Amazon. Eventually I will have read
them all, I hope. Long live Amazon!!!!

I have read or listened to a number of the Louis L`Amour books including many of the Sackett stories. This is another great L'Amour story told in his easy enjoyable fashion. So sit back in your favorite chair and let yourself be entertained.

I am amazed at all the author got accomplished for the main character of this book from the beginning to the end. It was an increddible story, and not one easily forgotten. Even though it has been two years since I read a borrowed copy, I still remember it fondly and purchased a copy to reread very soon. If I say too much I will give some of the story away, but I have read the first four books in the Sackett's Series and I think they are all gems. They fit nicely together and show Louis L'Amour's talent as a story teller that will always be remembered.

"The Warrior's Path" was a bit of a let-down after the first two Sackett novels ("Sackett's Land" and "To The Far Blue Mountains"). Also, the Warrior's Path had very little to do with the story. Nevertheless, I enjoyed the book immensely and highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys an adventure yarn.
