What to expect

The second novel in Joseph M. Marshall III’s acclaimed Lakota Western series begins in 1875, as Sitting Bull gathers thousands of Lakota to face the growing problem of white incursion.

What follows is a sweeping tale of the Battle of the Little Bighorn, including the days and weeks leading up to the conflict and the remarkable defeat of General George Armstrong Custer and the Seventh Cavalry.

Told for the first time from the Native perspective through the eyes of Lakota warrior Cloud, the story also weaves in the lesser-known but strategically important Battle of the Rosebud and the uncertain future that faced the Lakota following victory.

Once again, Marshall infuses the story with his unique voice and eye for detail, creating a page-turning Western with a style of its own.

Critics Review

“[Marshall] brings the story of the Battle of Little Bighorn alive through the eyes and hearts of the American Indians.”

Denver Post

“Written in an excellent storytelling style.”

Kliatt magazine

“This Western transcends its genre. Highly recommended.”

Historical Novels Review

“A fine historical novel in a class with Larry McMurtry’s tales of life on the Western frontier. Highly recommended.”
