The Warlock's Fire Talk

The saga of the Mountain Man, Jeremiah Warner, continues in this eighth volume of the series called the Mountain Man series. It is 1836 and the Rocky Mountain wilderness has taken on a new danger for Jeremiah Warner. His life as a free trapper already presented many obstacles from weather and wild animals. But now a new threat has emerged: the Bear Clan of the Crow Indian Nation. His allegiance by marriage to the Blackfeet has made him an enemy of the Crow. And in this eighth volume, "The Warlock's Fire Talk" Jeremiah Warner once again shows why he is the ultimate survivalist. His Crow adversaries have already decided that his "medicine" is great, that he is not just a Warrior, but a Warlock, someone of superior fighting skills. His usually solitary life in the mountains is briefly interrupted by the companionship of two men: John Charles Fremont a young explorer, and later by the legendary Mountain Man, Hatchet Jack. In this volume the reader gets to know the legendary Mountain Man, Hatchet Jack, whose companionship provides Jeremiah with understanding and begrudging support. The previous volume, "Wolf Man Warlock," introduced the feud between the Mountain Man and the Crow nation. It was the beginning of many such skirmishes that would eventually turn into full-scale warfare between numerous tribes and the white intruders. The high mountain adventures continue unabated in this eighth volume of the Mountain Man Series.
