Ordered to hold an abandoned army post, John Dunbar found himself alone, beyond the edge of civilization. Thievery and survival soon forced him into the Indian camp, where he began a dangerous adventure that changed his life forever. Set in 1863, the novel follows Lieutenant John Dunbar on a magical journey from the ravages of the Civil War to the far reaches of the imperiled American frontier, a frontier he naively wants to see "before it is gone".

By the time he returned home, the Civil War was over, but tragedy awaited. John’s beloved sister and her family had been brutally murdered. Their killer goes by many names. He fought for the North in the late unpleasantness, and wore a badge in the name of the law. But the man John knows as A. J. Dodd is little more than a rabid animal, slaughtering without reason or remorse, needing to be put down.

Ten years after the collapse, Huxley has built a good life again. He has a loving wife, a farm with fields of golden barley, and a daughter with a strange and wonderful gift. Then the slavers come. Working out in the fields during the attack, Huxley returns too late. His daughter has been taken, and his wife is bleeding out, her last whispered words about a man with a scorpion tattoo on his neck. Where do the slavers go? Huxley has no idea. He knows only that they head east, and so will he, setting out on foot across the desert of the Wastelands.

Story
In the early 1870's, the young state of Texas was struggling to survive. Its vast, undeveloped land of over 260 thousand square miles became a haven for the lawless. Murderers, rustlers and renegade bands of hostile Indians and Comanchero roamed the vast wastelands of west Texas with only a narrow river separating them from the sanctuary of Mexico. One group of dedicated lawmen stood between this element and the law-abiding citizenry - the Texas Rangers. This is the story of one of those men.

Publisher's summary
Set in 1855, number-one best-selling, multiple award-winning Book Two of the Threads West, An American Saga series continues the tale of five richly textured, complex generations of unforgettable personalities of differing cultures. The secrets of the maps are revealed, and suspense builds as they push westward, hurtling toward unknown destinies, propelled by one adventure, danger, romantic twist, and encounter to the next.
Forged in the crucible of history, shaped on the anvil of a dangerous land, the threads of their lives and torrid loves interweave with the evolution of the West. Armed conflicts, the rancor of slavery, and the discovery of gold, all create lethal surprises when the characters are forced to defend their lands, their loved ones, and their honor. The tragic story of the Indians begins to unfold. New characters with dark hearts, lost souls, and hopeful innocence color the tapestry of this epic saga. Others, in search of place and rightful freedom, catapult into the story.
An unexpected convergence of events sets in motion the thrilling, yet heartrending conclusion of Book Two, setting the stage for the arduous crossing of the Continental Divide, and the passionate tumult of the next Maps of Fate era novel of the Threads West, An American Saga series: Uncompahgre.
You will recognize the characters who live in these words.
They are the ancestors of your friends, your neighbors, your co-workers, and your family.
They are you. They are us.
This is not only their story. It is our story.

Could have been an interesting book!
I love any of the wagon train books as long as the author did his research. I, of course do not know first hand, but have read many Native American bios and their way of life and mind set and this author is way off! That being said, the narrator made this a very boring book. He ran sentences together, spoke in a hum-drum voice and I couldn't tell which character was saying what, when!!!!

Love the storyline HATE the narration
I have this series in print and have met the author on several occasions and had wonderful visits about his series. I say this because having read them, I was able to put to my own interpretation into the characters and my own accents. And I loved the series. I loved the characters, except the one… you know who he is. However, this narrator is awful and takes away from the storyline with his monotone voice and horrible accents. I’m hoping that he isn’t the same one for all the books. Definitely recommend the book and the series, but be prepared for some gawd-awful monotone narration.

narrator below average
Is there anything you would change about this book?
It's way too long. It needs to be faster paced.
What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)
Haven't gotten to the end yet. Waiting for book 4 although there is no information about when book 4 might be released. I was astonished the author knocked off Hilda. She was one of the more interesting characters.
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Jack Bair?
I don't know all the narrators available but Mr. Blair needs help. He tends to read in a monotone. He also miss pronounces words. Perhaps his producers or editors need to listen more carefully and make him correct the miss pronunciations. When he tries to do a dialect, they all sound the same. Somewhere between Irish, Russian and "who knows."
Was Maps of Fate worth the listening time?
All the books are worth listening too but need to be shortened and streamlined.
Any additional comments?
I would like to hear book four, but there is no information on when it might be available.
