FOLLOW THE ANGELS, FOLLOW THE DOVES The Bass Reeves Trilogy, Book 1

Midnite Michael's achievement is capturing the spirit of a classic Western while at the same time giving this biographical novel a contemporary feel. Thompson tells the story of Bass Reeves. Born enslaved just before the Civil War, Reeves grew to become a celebrated U.S. marshal. Reeves, an expert marksman from a young age, was forced to endure abuse by his enslaver as he took decisive steps to claim his human right to freedom. Listeners are treated to a literary sense of time and place. With his deep baritone, Michael conveys confidence while building the tension in Reeves's story. His solo performance is a gift.
