Crack in the Sky continues the development of the young Titus Bass as he gradually learns the lore of the mountain man. From a raucous rendezvous of trappers to a searing fight with
Comanche, from a frigid winter’s chill to the angry heat of a chase with horse thieves, Titus Bass’s West comes alive in this remarkable novel—and in its final scene, Titus Bass will meet young
Josiah Paddock and form the deep friendship explored in Carry the Wind.
