    About this audiobook

    Filled with exciting tales of the frontier, the chronicle of the Sackett family is perhaps the crowning achievement of one of our greatest storytellers.In The Warrior's Path, Louis L'Amour tells the story of Yance and Kin Sackett, two brothers who are the last hope of a young woman who faces a fate worse than death.

    When Yance Sackett's sister-in-law is kidnapped, he and Kin race north from Carolina to find her. They arrive at a superstitious town rife with rumors-and learn that someone very powerful was behind Diana's disappearance. To bring the culprit to justice, one brother must sail to the exotic West Indies.

    There, among pirates, cutthroats, and ruthless "businessmen," he will apply the skills he learned as a frontiersman to an unfamiliar world-a world where one false move means instant death.

    • 4/5
      Well-written addition to the Sackett series, with Kin Ring taking the leading role as he and his brother Yance search for a couple young girls taken hostage, supposedly by members of the Pequot tribe.
    • 4/5
      I love the stories about the Sacketts. Louis L'Amour knows how to write so that I feel like I 'KNOW' these awesome men. I underline quotes, I laugh, I stop and listen to the sounds around me.This particular story of Kin Sackett involves courage, doing what is right - no matter the cost, addressing the issue of slavery and of course, a pretty, brave and smart girl.Kin travels all the way to Jamaica and back to the mountains of North Carolina, which in 1620, was considered the West.
    • 3/5
      This book had one glaring problem that was hard to read- Kin goes after a girl, who he's never met, but only described. Then, upon landing in the new country, he describes the girl, and she just s o happens to be living right under his nose! Not only was it too convenient, but finding one girl out of thousands based only on a description? Yeah, I couldn't swallow it.

      The rest of the story is good. I like Kin's character development, as well as some other characters in the book. Of course, the book is highly predictable. Kin beats up the bad guys, gets the girl, and lives happily ever after.

      I did like that the last book was setting you up for witches, and that witches were what were eluded to in the last book.
    • 5/5
      The jacket blurb does not really do this title justice.The sister-in-law Kin and Yance head out to rescue is Temp's 10-yr-old sister. Both of the kidnapped girls - Carrie and Diana - are rescued and safely kept on the shore.KIN (not Yance) goes to the Carribean to find another young lady who had been kidnapped a year or two before, seeking to A) rescue her, B) Marry her, and C) Get her testimony to end the white-woman slavery, making their home safe for their women.As the cover indicates, things did not go quite as he planned. Among other things - he discovered that not only did the girl no longer require rescuing, she was also ineligible for marriage.But you'll enjoy just how all that came about and shook out.
    • 4/5
      A little less preachy and a little more action in this installment. Mr. L'Amour does better in his later 'western' books*, but this story wasn't bad. I'd like a little more geographical detail... but that's not going to happen, now or later. I am enjoying rereading the beginning few books of this memorable family saga. Next up is the perils of Jubal Sackett, who IIRC actually heads west.*Actually he wrote these first few books, filling in details of the early family, some 10-15 years later.
    • 5/5
      A very exciting, suspenseful, and action packed story. Kin Sackett finds that young women are being taken and sold into slavery. He is determined to stop the men in his territory that are doing this. His travels take him into the Caribbean to find one of the women and get evidence against the slavers. These actions fuel a feud between him and the slavers which will continue until one of them is dead.
    • 3/5
      Too much repetitive dialogue and somewhat disjointed though I did listen to it all.
    • 5/5
      This book follows the story of Kin-Ring Sackett. With him the reader travels north to New England and later to Port Royal, Jamaica. All along there is an interesting cast of characters. While this is historical fiction, it feels like a Western, so you have a strong feeling that the hero will triumph. It is the path that matters. I thoroughly enjoyed the book. If you enjoy Westerns, you would probably like this, too.
    • 4/5
      A story of the colonial period Sacket family. Long hunters meet pirates and abductors of women. A fun story, well developed.
    • 4/5
      This was a fun adventure to read. I liked it a lot.
