Sun Going Down Audiobook

" I loved this book. The author develops his characters well and I was quickly taken in and attached to them; further wanting to learn more. There was one area in the middle of the book that was a little slow and you got the impression that the author either didn't know where he wanted to go with the story or that he was not much interested in writing that phase of the book. I thought his depth of historical background was wonderful and his descriptions captivating. I would read something else he has written. "

" It took awhile to get used to the way the author didn't use quotation marks. The way he goes through the generations and switches viewpoints is interesting and well done, as I imagine this would be a difficult thing to do successfully. Once finished the book, I felt like something was missing, like it wasn't supposed to end just yet. Perhaps this was purposeful because obviously the family will continue with the next generation and the next... but, even so, the book felt like it was missing a chapter. I would have liked a reason for ending where he did. "

" One you get past the very beginning, maybe the first 1/8 of the novel, it becomes a wonderful, sweeping epic that you just can't put down. I'm looking forward to the sequel. "

" The first book in the trilogy. Brilliant depiction of the American West at the turn of 20th century. "

" From the cover: "An extravagant epic; A page-turning tale of adventure; An intimate romance; A story of four generations of one family bound to the land and the fate of the American West" "

" I LOVED this book. An epic tale of one families struggles through the generations of settling in the midwest. "

" I sat next to Jack Todd at a booksigning last fall, where we traded books, or I undoubtedly would have missed this ripsnortin' novel of the West. Good job, Jack! "

" This was a good read up until the last third of the book, when the main hero does a 180 and turns into a complete douchebag. I started to wish someone would knock his teeth out or something. The last part just ruined the whole book for me. "

" Above-average historical novel and western. I couldn't put it down. "

" I love Westerns "

" I adore historical fiction, so this book caught my eye. Once I started reading, I couldn't put it down! I was drawn in immediately by Todd's characters and his vivid description of the events which shaped them. Great read! "

" Wonderful historical saga based on true facts of the author's family. Can't wait to read more by this author. "

" Loved this one. Great for anyone who loves historical fiction. Totally compelling and just full of enough daily life details of the period to keep it intestine but not bogged down. "

" Great book on the history of our early settlers in the west "

" This was a good story. I enjoyed the generations of Paints and the changing time periods. It's a good read for anyone who enjoys history, especially American History. "

" This was a great book. It is quite long w/ small print, but well worth the time. Extremely well-written, w/ believable characters and situations. "

" It's been a long time since a book made me cry. This one did! I don't usually read westerns but I totally fell for this one. "

" great fronteir saga. made me grumble less about my chores. Life was hard back then.The plot/many characters were easy to follow. "
