THE RAIL KINGS The Wells Fargo Trail: Book 3

Zac Cobb is a larger than life Western hero, an ordinary guy who lives by his wits and his weapons and attracts beautiful women like Elizabeth Roberts. Jack Garrett, whose splendid voice is recognizable from his work in commercials, brings warmth and strength to Walker's characterization of Zac. The fight over the rail line through the Royal Gorge was in real life between the Rio Grande and Santa Fe, rather than the Denver and Rio Grande and Chicago Pacific railroads, but the violent struggles between railroad, cattle, and lumber barons throughout the West are legendary. Garrett's well-paced performance brings drama, suspense, tension, and emotion, as well as exceptionally smooth reading skills, to Walker's action-packed novel. S.C.A.
