I think a T-man member is crying out for help, by lashing out at some legendary trappers. Praying they find relief from their own personal demons.
Why so deep ?

Lugnut and many others -
Thanks to each of you for reading the book and posting comments. For decades, I tired of reading books that were largely filler (most authors these days seem to think a novel needs to be 500 pages) and were predictable (the good guy always wins). I wanted to spin a yarn that was believable, no drawn-out filler, and not entirely predictable. Was I successful?

Full of twists and turns in the adventures of the life of the tough ones You accomplished your goal in success ! Though, in life, there still are happy endings ,long lived bush pilots, love found at last, I do love those , always will Regardless, the mind and imaginations of Jackson W. are in a league of their own and appreciated by us , of the uniqueness of the man . Nothing of that rye...er wry humour censored at all . That is what we love about you

Jack It's hard to discuss without spoiling it for those who haven't yet read it. But since you ask... It was completely believable and had a few surprises, shocking moments actually. And your ending really ticked me off! I think I muttered something like, "You got to be freaking kidding me, son of a (female dog)." It's a good book that can elicit that kind of response from me. I keep the good books in my library pretty much forever. I like them to be hardcover so they withstand the test of time. I wish yours was available in hardcover.
Eh...wot?

Lugnut, my response was similar, though in sad pleading tones I told Jack that when I was last visiting them and enjoying their company. We wouldn't feel that way, if we were not thoroughly involved and feeling close to the book characters , so for our Gulo, that is the compliment that every author loves to see. I had an ending I felt like adding , and if memory serves me right , himself did also, but as is the acknowledgement of the author, he is master of his orchestra , and we all ride the train with him I have his book online , so that is another option for you , which , like a hardback, also stays as new over time in digital format.
