Reviews

Great suspense


(4.5 stars)

Loved the story, although the narrator can be annoying at times. There's a lot of back biting and knock down drag out fights between several of the characters that have gone to Yukon for the gold, antsy women who have gone there only to find a man to marry. There's also a love triangle, however, it's not trashy mushy stuff. Enjoy

WHEN MEN WERE MEN


(4.5 stars)

A surprisingly entertaining story, one made for the movies. Drama, romance, feuds, and suspense all combine with a fun story to satisfy any adventuresome person. The unequaled talent of Dolbier with his gteat accents and voices was perfection.
