The Long Dark Ride

What is the unseen force that drives young Henry Jaeger from his roots upon a 'Long Dark Ride', into the darkness and then towards light of humanity? Repeatedly visited by both fortune and misfortune, he is driven to the extremes of human kindness and overt savagery by the unseen. What is eventually created out of the wilderness, is a cattle and grain empire lasting many generations. The story then leaps ahead a century, when another young Jaeger returns from the US Marines, enters college, achieving gridiron immortality, only to eventually experience the same 'Long Dark Ride', as did his ancestor, the legendary 'Ghost Dancer', Henry Jaeger, of generations long past. This is the first of the Jaeger trilogy of Sagas that traverse the world, joining a dizzying array of antagonists and protagonists into a constant whirlpool of events that will drive the reader into turning the next page, to see what happens next.
