By Kosser and Michael Kosser

Book Overview

"Fantastic...Packed with heroic figures, lightning action, and great drama." - Ralph Compton

For generations they had survived on the open plains-against enemies, storms, and pestilence. Now, a new force was pushing into their lands, and in a desperate fight for their survival, they became...THE LAST WARRIORS. Out-numbered, out-gunned, they were the most courageous warriors of all-fighting for survival on their own land.

From the acclaimed author of the FIRST FRONTIER colonial-era novel series Michael Kosser.

WALKS ON THE WIND
Once they owned the plains. Magnificent riders, fierce raiders, the Arapaho outfought their ancient enemies, the Utes, and hunted with skill and courage the great herds of buffalo. But the white man-the Niatha-had come into their land, defacing the earth for gold, building farms, and turning the ancient winter resting place in a town called Denver.

For one warrior, the way of peace and cooperation was trampled under a stampede of cruelty, confusion, lies, and death. Now, Walks On The Wind is a man who has lost everything he once held dear. Turning from the Arapahos' past enemies, Walks On The Wind pits his courage against a people he cannot understand or defeat-but whom he will haunt until his dying day.

Customer Reviews

"SAD"

My one word for the title of this review says it all. This is the story of Walks on the Wind. An Arapaho Indian that was never treated right by the white man. He ended up losing everything he had but I feel like this is true of so many indians of that time. On page 8, paperback, a statement is made, "They kill our buffalo. They cut down our trees, they take our campgrounds and call it theirs. Then they give us back some of our own land and tell us to stay there." It tells the story of white men taking Indian land, building a town and then telling the Indians they will be shot if they show up there. One of the worst men was John Milton Chivington, a preacher turned soldier. He wanted to kill all Indians, did not matter what tribe, good or bad. I think this could very well be true story of the way the Indians were treated. I know there was good and bad on both sides but I think the whites broke more treaties, told more lies and did more harm than the Indians did at first. If you like to read about the early settlers and Indians, I feel you will like this book. As Walks on the Wind used to say each morning," There is beauty before me this day." Walks on the Wind lost his beauty.

Michael Kosser ain't no red man.

Michael Kossser writes with the authority of a rubber chicken. His characters would be improved if they could be upgraded to two dimensional. His Native American characters make Tonto look like the Gore Vidal of the plains. Some of Kosser's books, written under other names, including Mike Roark, Mike the Moose, and Mike Cro Phone, make more use of torture, one of his favorite subjects than this piece of buffalo tripe. These were his best works -- eyes were gouged out, entrails pulled forth and used as necklaces for the dying torturee. This latest pile of deer scat doesn't have much torture, unless you count the torture the reader endures in working through it.
