In 1883, Jose Olano, a 16-year-old Basque from the Iberian Peninsula, has lucked into a job as a sheepherder in the southeastern portion of Idaho Territory. He is in bliss until the day that a raging grizzly bear attacks his sheep herd, and in trying to defend his charges he wounds the bear and is in turn horribly torn apart before he kills the beast, almost on accident.
A dedicated fan reacts to Death of an Eagle.
“I read Death of an Eagle, and it is great from the first page on. How can anyone write such a good story?
There is a bear attack from a huge grizzly bear right away, and the main character fights that bear heroically. It was so much like I was fighting it. You can’t believe the depth of these characters and how close you get to them. You don’t want to let them go. Bring back more of these people, Kirby Jonas! Bless you, for writing a book I can read to my eight-year-old or loan to my mom. We’ve needed a good clean western writer since Louis L’Amour died, and now I’ve found one better!”
