High praise for Terry C. Johnston’s
“Titus Bass” trilogy–Carry the Wind, Borderlords, and One-Eyed Dream
“COMPELLING … Johnston offers memorable characters, a great deal of history and lore about the Indians and pioneers of the period, and a deep insight into human nature, Indian or white.”
“RICH AND FASCINATING … There is a genuine flavor of the period and of the men who made it what it was.”
—Washington Post Book World
“An exciting trilogy, full of unforgettable adventure.”
—Rocky Mountain News
“Johnston’s books are action-packed.… A remarkably fine blend of arduous historical research and proficient use of language … LIVELY, LUSTY, FASCINATING.”
—Colorado Springs Gazette-Telegraph
“Slick with survival-and-gore heroics and thick with Northwest-wilderness period detail (1820-40), this gutsy adventure-entertainment is also larded with just the right amounts of frontier sentiment.”
—Kirkus Reviews
“DARNED GOOD … colorful writing … believable characters … Johnston’s way of telling his story will capture your imagination!”
—Guns & Ammo
