The Storm Testament Volume 3

By Lee Nelson

As the golden spike is driven in and the transcontinental railroad is officially finished, Sam Storm finds himself jobless - and attracted to a high-society beauty named Catherine. Thus Sam sets out to launch a daring business scheme involving firewater, stolen horses, and a dangerous journey that will make him rich enough to impress Catherine's doting father.

When he returns to Salt Lake, however, Sam finds that wooing the lovely Catherine may be more difficult than just impressing her father. Nor can he forget the ravaged Shoshone village he passed through on his journey and the horrific scene he saw there. And when strange events begin to fit together to reveal a sinister plot, Sam must once again set off on an adventure - this time to discover the truth, and eventually to save the woman he loves.

Reviews for The Storm Testament Volume 3

[stacyinthecity · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

This is the novelization of the life of Orrin Porter Rockwell, the Destroying Angel. He killed many men while protecting the Mormon religion, early Mormon church leaders, or his own morals. The author tried not to glamorize his life, but he was still presented in a positive light, as someone who was on the side of right most of the time.It was an interesting story, and I learned a lot of about life for the early Mormons and pioneers. However, the story was dry at times and read like a history book. The first few chapters deal with Dan Storm (from the previous Storm Testament novels) and a woman named Polly who actually narrates the story of Rockwell's life. However, it was never explained Polly's connection to Rockwell or how she knew so much about his life.
