Get it here: Wake not the Hangman
While this book on the surface seems to be your typical
western novel, within the pages is a tale of courage, abuse, heartbreaking love
and the ultimate betrayals. Thornton
is treated just like a slave by his abusive father and made to work the farm
day in and day out. He despises Slavery and when his father brings home three
slaves to help out around the farm Thornton
welcomes these new potential conspirators for a daring escape. However, when
his cousin Ethan (who is as mean spirited as Thornton ’s Father), makes a sudden
appearance, it puts the entire plan and family at risk.
This book was so well written and the characters were so
fleshed out that I was drawn into it quickly. The ending was superb and
actually interesting since you sort of have the happy ending you would expect.
Then again you don’t. The reflection by Thornton
