See all formats and editions
Erik Keller has dreamed of an excursion to the Great White North ever since he was a young outdoorsman. Just when those dreams are about to become a reality, tragedy strikes and he finds himself stranded in the Canadian Nahanni National Park Reserve. Can he survive hungry predators, the ever-changing weather and the mountainous terrain? Does he have what it takes to survive and reunite with his family? Will the determination and devotion of his wife save him, or will it be the tenacity and experience of a weary Canadian Search and Rescue Officer that gets Erik home. Ultimately, it comes down to man against nature.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well-done survival story
Reviewed in the United States on May 4, 2019

I really enjoyed this book quite a bit. I don't know much about wilderness camping other than what I see watching Bear Grylls on TV and Life Below Zero on Nat Geo. Regardless, I found this book engrossing and entertaining. The development of the main character was well-done and very believable. The things that he knew about survival and how he used what he knew in the situation he was in with what he had from the crash was well-done. I really cares about the characters, including his wife.

Only one criticism: the issue with his leg is resolved in a simplistic fashion. A leg that infected (as described) would usually be amputated. Just saying it was OK after a few days and antibiotics seemed unrealistic. But that was the only thing that struck the wrong note. Other than that, the book was very interesting. I even did some minor fact-checking on the details of the Park and everything checked out just great. Recommended and 5 stars!

This is one of those books that could be described as "action driven" were it not for the fact that the characters are so well written. Even the less than likeable people seem to be the kind that might be your co-worker or go to church with you,and the setting is painted in your mind almost like another character.

The pace is set early on and keeps you on the edge of your seat till the end. Welsh seems to pull from his life experiences and a thoroughly researched background of the Nahanni to create the vivid imagery portrayed in the book. He draws you in to the point you feel as if you’re experiencing each of the Kellers hardships and triumphs yourself. A great read! Looking forward to seeing more from this new up-and-coming writer.

I love a book with adventure, scares you, and tugs at your heart at the same time! You really painted a picture of this beautiful park. It shows that you did extensive research on the area. Great job, Billy! You should be very proud!

Very entertaining and quick read. The combination of outdoor adventure and family dynamics made for an engrossing story, and I finished the book in two sittings. Bonus is that I learned about a place I hadn't heard of before!

Well, you got my attention. The action starts off quick in this man vs nature adventure. I enjoyed how the story blended back and forth between Erik and the rescue efforts. Well done!

3.0 out of 5 stars Quick read, likeable characters
Reviewed in Canada on August 18, 2019

This new author has written a likeable main character. You really cheer for him all the way through. As a Canadian, an outdoor enthusiast, and an RCMP wife, I was pulled out of the story quite a few times with the inaccuracies in rank, procedure, general detachment life, and the ease with which the main character started a fire. Even with a Bic, it takes a while to get fire in the damp of fall in the north. You can tell the author did quite a bit of research on the area itself and I appreciate that, the Canadian wilderness is a sight to behold. This was a quick read to add to my holiday in the Rocky mountains.
