Trail of the Mountain Man by William W. Johnstone
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
This third in the series is much like the second with the obvious intent to make it different. Almost as if Johnstone wanted to rewrite the second in the series.
It’s still a real good book. You get to really know the various other characters involved. Most are fleshed out. It was quite a task. I almost wonder if Johnstone went too far with his descriptions. Not sure if he needed to flesh them out as much. But that is a light complaint compared to the overwrought Reacher novel I finished before this.
This is also a fun story with all kinds of things happening, lots of side stories and a satisfying conclusion. Johnstone does give a view of the bad guy and the like to understand their positions. It’s a satisfying reading pleasure.
