Land of the Cold Sky, Books 1 and 2

By Bruce Dunavin

An epic Christian love story that rivals that of Romeo and Juliet. A mountain man (Shane McQuaid) finds the love of his life (Becky) in a Ute village and with the grace of God marries her. Shane rides a spiritual and magical horse that evil men want to possess at any cost. They pursue Shane and are eventually able to kidnap Becky. Their plan is to trade her back to Shane for the horse or sell her into slavery. The setting for this story is central Colorado in the mid 1800s before law and order, railroads, politicians, lawyers and hoards of people move in and bring an end to the American West. There are other interesting side stories to include an unimaginable flash flood, tales of survival, death, western justice, supernatural healing, humor, grizzly bear encounters, wolves, elk, bighorn, an improbable chess game, other mountain men, a rancher who has no use for politicians or lawyers, bandits, preachers, a dog with near human qualities, cruelty, unspeakable loneliness and much more. All set against the backdrop of the unmitigated beauty and grandeur of the Rocky Mountains. This book will make you cry and your heart sing
