THE CANYON IS CALLING ME
Avid Listener
A fine love story by Grey--love of the land first, then love between Carley and Glen. Never has Grey described scenes more beautifully. If I had read this as a young man, I would have gone to Flagstaff. It is always pleasureable to listen to Kilmer read about the west. Thanks, Richard.

This is my all-time favorite Zane Grey novel. I've probably been through it a half-dozen times! Wonderful look at history and very unique point of view from our modern view of life. The pictures painted in words of the Arizona desert and wilderness are so evocative! This is a great read.

A story of ENDLESS soliloquies AND musings...predictable ending... not much action...a”warring” of values between lovers...good and many descriptions of the terrain
