The Protectors (Legend of the Golden Feather)

Rating:
Summary: Those Thrilling Days of Yesteryear, Part 2
Review: Reviewer Gary Arbach is right! The Protectors is Book Two in Dave Brown's "Legend of the Golden Feather" series. A rip-roarin' tribute to the Old West with a modern day allegory. For an introduction to the series, see my review for Book One, "Bristlecone Peak."

Summary: Review of The Protectors, A Novel by Dave Brown
Review: The Protectors is the 2nd book of a wonderful trilogy set in 1886 Colorado. They tell of the adventures of Jake Brady, a big, blond mountain of a farm boy from Kentucky, and his partner, Wiley Deluce, the college educated, bearded, hairy chested stud from Philadelphia. While the first book introduced us to Jake and Wiley, this 2nd book flashes our heroes 107 years into the future. They fall under the protection of Jim and Dave, two mountain men wannabes from Denver, hense the book's title. The book recounts the adventures of all four men. This book is fairly simplistic in narrative and the description of Jake and Wiley is beyond anything put out by Colt. But if you dwell on that, you've missed the point. Look into the deeper recesses of your local book store for War and Peace or a marked-down copy of the Dead Sea Scrolls, if you're so inclined. Just let yourself go and picture these guys (can you say Carl Hardwick? is a good first pass) in a knockout romp in today's sometimes bizzare society. Hello? Enjoy it! It's fun!

Summary: Seeing the world with Jakes eyes
Review: When I write this I am still in the middle of this second book in the "Legend of the golden feather" series from Dave Brown, with its prequel "Bristlecone Peak" and the third book "Home to Kentucky", but I could not bear not to talk about it now. After being in danger to lost their lifes Jake and Wiley time-travel with the help of the 'golden feather' into year 1993 to meet there two other hunky gay men who help to rescue wounded Wileys life.
Again the author created more wonderfully drawn characters and the pleasant, loving atmosphere that surrounded the lovers Jak and Wiley and everyone around. With these two around you feel sure everything they will have to face will end well - that feeling I like especially in the book. And I also love the warm humour so generously spread in here. I can't count the times when I spontaneously break in laughter after reading Jake's comments about the world of 1993. And it was very interesting to look at our daily life with the eyes of a man from the past. The author did a very well job creating this wonderful moments, this wonderful book. I can't wait to read also the third in the series and I really recommend these books with emphasis to everyone who like gay romance, gay friendship and a gorgeous gay couple.
