BRILLIANT CONCEPT OF A MYSTICAL UNION.

THE CONCEPT OF TWO LOVERS ACTUALLY DREAMING THE OTHER BRINGS MY HEART TO THE FOREGROUND WHEN ENJOYING THIS POST-WAR BETWEEN THE STATES TALE, OF COURSE BASED (ALA THE WONDERFUL GEAR STYLE) ON ACTUAL HISTORICAL EVENTS.

BOTH THE LOVE OF MY LIFE AND I ACTUALLY DREAMED OF THE OTHER FOR YEARS BEFORE WE FINALLY FOUND EACH OTHER. OUR READING OF THE BOOK(DONE OUTLOUD, TOGETHER, INSTEAD OF TV, ETC.) WAS OFTEN PUNCTUATED BY A DEEP LOOK INTO EACH OTHER'S EYES AND A RENEWAL OF HOPE THAT OTHERS MAY ALSO EXPERIENCE THE DEPTH OF CARING THAT WE SHARE. IT CERTAINLY REVEALS NOT ONLY AN AWARENESS, BUT LIKELY A PROFOUND CAPACITY IN THIS LOVELY AUTHOR FOR THE SAME TYPE OF EXPERIENCE.

WE READ THE BOOK TO GET A FLAVOR OF EACH MEMBER OF THE GEAR TEAM (KATHLEEN AND MICHAEL), HAVING READ, LEARNED FROM AND LOVED THEIR COMBINED WORKS IN MOST OF THE "PEOPLE OF..." SERIES. A WORTHY INDIVIDUAL COMPARISON AND PARALLEL CONCEPT IS FOUND IN MICHAEL GEAR'S WORK IN "THE MORNING RIVER" AND ITS SEQUEL "COYOTE SUMMER".

WE ARE NOW PROUD OWNERS OF AN AUTOGRAPHED COPY OF THE GEAR'S LATEST: "THE PEOPLE OF THE NIGHTLAND", WHICH MAY BE AVAILABLE AT "THE STORYTELLER" BOOKSTORE IN THERMOPOLIS, WYOMING. ASK FOR GILBERT.

Sand in the Wind

She has done it again! This book kept me on the edge of my seat, I couldn't put it down. It brought togeather the pioneers, and the Cheyene perspectives and did it with mysticism, romance, danger et al. A real winner.

Kathleen O'Neal Gear Sands in the Wind

The book was entertaining but the story line was a little hard to follow. New facts seemed to show up willy-nilly. Normally these would add twists and turns to a story line, but in this case they confused me.

Drawn by troubling dreams of a handsome Indian Warrior, Colleen Merrill had come westward with her brutal husband to homestead in the Montana wilderness--only to fall in love with Lieutenant Matthew Douglas, a dashing U.S. Cavalry officer.

Wounded Bear, a young Cheyenne warrior and medicine man, had been told in a vision by the great spirit--wolf that a golden-haired woman held the power to save his people from invasion. As the drums of war beat every louder, Wounded Bear knew he must find this woman, or the Cheyenne would be scattered--like grains of sand in the wind.
