About the Author

Award-winning author Dusty Rhodes was born in Eastern Oklahoma -- formerly the notorious Indian Territory. He grew up on stories of the old West. His first book, Manhunter, was named Best Western of 2002.

From AudioFile

Rhodes's dramatic Western mainly takes place after the Civil War. Strong male characters dominate the action, read comfortably by Gene Engene. Engene portrays the young Shiloh, or Nathan Whittington, and his friends Lester and Doc by using a varied pace and volume, as well as regional accents. Shiloh cannot settle down until he settles the score with Colonel Sam Mattox, and this hunt takes him deep into Mexico. As the tension builds in Engene's voice, listeners will better understand Shiloh's preoccupations, misconceptions, and emotions. On the whole, Engene's performance smoothly recreates the cowboy storyteller. S.C.A. © AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
