About this audiobook
Return with us to those thrilling days of yesteryear as Mike Vendetti narrates this early Zane Grey novel of hardy pioneers taming the wild west.
Yes, despite the difficult times, romance flourishes and the bad guys are eliminated almost single handedly as our heroes Jonathan Zane and his sidekick Lew “Deathwind” Wetzel fight their way through mud, blood, gore, savage Indians, and despicable outlaws, to make the land safe for pioneer families as they settle the wild west.
Summary by Mike Vendetti.
Zane Grey
Zane Grey (1872–1939) was born in Zanesville, Ohio, a city named for a Revolutionary War hero who was his ancestor. After attending the University of Pennsylvania on a baseball scholarship, he started a dentistry practice in New York City and wrote in the evenings. An avid outdoorsman, Grey found his inspiration in the American West, and his bestselling novels, including the iconic Riders of the Purple Sage, established the conventions and the enduring popularity of the Western genre.

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5The story itself was a good tale of pioneers & outlaws. Like the others said, the narrowest or was so bad at times it was distractingly comical.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Narrator does a horrible job. Stilted, forced, and mispronounced words in beginning chapters. Towards end, he is mockingly reading the words in some action scenes. Throught entire novel, read as though he could not wait for it to end.
Story is classic, and deserved better presentation. Not a story for modern snowflakes.2 people found this helpful
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Just another Librivox filler. Scribd is a ripoff. If I wanted to listen to Librivox, I'd get Librivox.
