I very much like seeing how the characters, the stories and the author have evolved since the first book and am looking forward (as always) to the next one. Quite unlike any horse- or space-operas I've read (and there have been many), this series may well be a new genre -- or at least a significant sub-genre. With regard to the Amazon classifications for the author's writing - "good" is not good enough, Barbara is on the road to great. She makes me laugh, get worried, be happy, sad, mad and laugh again within a dozen pages... you might say I like the books. Reviews of On the Rocks (Spirit Animal #1): "A VERY ENJOYABLE READ!!! Captivating, mentally stimulating, & entertaining with a STRONG female character." "Actually my favorite summer read! I can just picture this gal ridin', shootin', and livin' it up on the range with quite a cast of characters!! Fun, lighthearted and gritty . I was born too late ! But "On the Rocks" puts me there!" "laugh out loud funny." "Dammit, the book just quit, long before it was through. I had a buncha good stuff in mind I was looking forward to, but the book just STOPPED!! Dammit again. There WILL be another, won't there? Is it here yet? Is it here yet? Is it here yet? There's a small chance this book was found to be tolerable." ""On the Rocks" has an intriguing story line with some definite surprises you don't expect in a Western. The characters are interesting, I look forward to learning more about them." "Interesting. Definitely not my usual book. I enjoyed it though."
