BOOK REVIEWS
“When I was young, I used to devour westerns and especially loved Louis L’amour. JEB’S QUEST reminded me of those classic, old-style westerns and I was completely captivated. Jeb is a fabulous hero. The setting and dialogue was authentic and the characters were very real. I would love to read more about Jeb!” ~ reviewed by T. P. Warren at Amazon Reviews [FIVE STARS]
“JEB’S QUEST is a complex and authentic western story written by an author with deep personal knowledge of the genre, the period, and the region in which the tale unfolds. The story follows Jeb Powers, a Texas Ranger who has spent too much time alone hunting outlaws, and also Russ, an orphan boy Jeb rescues along the way. To keep Russ safe, Jeb leaves him temporarily with an old Creek woman, who teaches the boy lessons in living and survival. As Jeb pursues a cold-blooded murderer and his companions, he winds up helping a beautiful woman engaged to another man. She is not his to covet. At least, not yet. Jeb and his companions face tense confrontations and inherent dangers from northern Texas up into wild Oklahoma Territory. Adding spice and humor to this delightful tale is Jeb’s faithful companion, a smart and feisty burro named Tulip. JEB’S QUEST is an enjoyable, fast read with warmth, heart, and humor. Don’t miss it!” ~ reviewed by Amber Sparks for Neon Book Reviews [FIVE STARS]
“Judy Goodspeed’s new book JEB’S QUEST is a Western straight out of the old days, with details so accurate you can taste the trail dust. The Texas Ranger hero is determined to get his man, even though he gets distracted by another man’s woman. Add in a young orphan, the mystery of an elder Creek woman with blue eyes, and a sassy burro companion, and you’ve got all the ingredients for a great read. Enjoy!” ~ reviewed by Suzi Taylor at Amazon Reviews [FOUR STARS]
