The Red River Ring is a classic western tale of good verses evil. Author Randy Smith, provides an excellent story line that helps create a genuine understanding of the main characters. His blend of telling us the characters' past history to help develop the current story is wonderful. The reader becomes friends with the McMurphy family, and feels their genuine pain, fear, and struggle to overcome the overwhelming odds to defeat the Red River Ring.
