    About this audiobook

    The folks in the Colorado River valley, located in southern Utah, openly discussed and wondered which horse was the fastest, Wildfire or Sage King. But Wildfire was a wild stallion and not yet captured...that is until Sloane came along. His relentless pursuit of the wild stallion finally brought him a hard won victory. But old man Bostil didn't take kindly to a saddlebum's challenge to race his Sage King. And no one ever knew for sure which horse was fastest until a raging range fire trapped both horses and riders into a race against death.

    Zane Grey

    American author (Pearl Zane Grey) is best known as a pioneer of the Western literary genre, which idealized the Western frontier and the men and women who settled the region. Following in his father’s footsteps, Grey studied dentistry while on a baseball scholarship to the University of Pennsylvania. Grey’s athletic talent led to a short career in the American minor league before he established his dentistry practice. As an outlet to the tedium of dentistry, Grey turned to writing, and finally abandoned his dental practice to write full time. Over the course of his career Grey penned more than ninety books, including the best-selling Riders of the Purple Sage. Many of Grey’s novels were adapted for film and television. He died in 1939.

    • 4/5
      Very slow starting to the plot. A lot of wasted words on descriptions.
    • 5/5
      The one "reveiw extant makes Grey's work here sound like it is trashy and plain. Far from it! The country, charactgers, plot, and wildness exemplify the heighth of Grey's descritive powers. The male lead is a tall, gaunt, quiet, Texan, the role model for the Gary Cooper types that were cast in westerns the first half of the 20th century/ And the wildfire alluded to is the horse, of course, of course, but also could be the nickname of the red=headed, headstrong daughter of the ranchers, the two of which find each other. I'm surpirsed Hollywood hasn't made more of ZG's novels into movies as he follows the action and love themes of that town and always leaves us with a happy ending.
    • 2/5
      A dime store-paperback adventure about a horse race.
