Readers Comment on God's Thunderbolt: The Vigilantes of Montana

While I'm honored that God's Thunderbolt has received the 2009 Spur Award for Best First Novel, I'm even more delighted in the reactions from readers who taken the time and trouble to say so, either to me or elsewhere.

Here are some readers' comments on God's Thunderbolt: The Vigilantes of Montana. All comments are used by permission.

"By turns, a Western, a legal thriller, a mystery and a love story all of which are anchored in the tale of a man's coming to terms with his own morality and character. It's a lot to get into one book, but it works." Amazon review

"We hope to see more from this author in the future. Highly recommended." Amazon review

"I bought ‘God's Thunderbolt’ on Tuesday at Border's and finished it last night (Thursday). Couldn't put it down for the life of me. Your characters really grabbed hold of me and I thought it was great." (via e-mail)

"I loved it! I planned to clean my house on my day off, and I spent the whole day reading your book!" (via e-mail)

"It's all your fault! My husband started reading your book and every time I asked him to help me do something, he said, 'I can't. I don't want to put the book down.'" (via e-mail)
