Bitterroot

This book is a sequel but, I believe, firmly stands on it own merits. But for those who are expecting it to be a second Little Wolf novel, don't. Little Wolf finally makes his appearance with only 50 pages to go. But no matter, his brother is very capable of providing enough adventure for readers of Westerns. In fact our protagonist goes from one situation to another, almost like one short story to another, which is tied up neatly at the end, bringing the whole novel together. The only reason I didn't give this one 5 stars is because some of the characters were quite cliched and there really was nothing new here. This was my first Charles West novel and I may well read more.
