"A Man Called Outlaw is a bittersweet reading delight that any lover of historical fiction will adore. I recommend it without reserves to any reader....

Read it, love it, ache with it." Read Full Review Online

"...a big 'ol western, raw and real. It's got gut-wrenching bravery and desperate cowardice. Dare I say it? It has True Grit.... K.M. Weiland's A Man Called Outlaw unwinds with restless tension that keeps on building right up to the final pages. She weaves into it a cast of characters who are ruthless, jealous, resilient, naïve, desperate, heroic.... I read only about one in ten books that I can't put down. This was one of them.... And when all the threads finally tie together, it's satisfying, even in its harsh realism. " Read Full Review Online

Weiland will yank you off the couch and drop you in the middle of the action. By the time you're back in your own century, you'll be spittin' dust off your tongue. Read Full Review Online

"I just finished this book last week, and it was my third or fourth time through it. Wow, wow, wow pretty much sums it up...and in my opinion that still falls short of praise. This book has affected me like no book has ever done before. It struck a cord deep down inside and I will never forget the emotion I felt while reading it. It's a very sad story...the first time I read it I bawled my eyes out. Oh, for men like Andrew Lassiter today - a man that stood up for the truth!" Read Full Review Online

"A Man Called Outlaw is a dynamic, suspenseful journey that will keep you captivated to the very last sentence. I hope others are blessed by reading it as much as I was."

"A Man Called Outlaw by K.M. Weiland is something refreshing: a recent book that readers of classic-style Westerns will enjoy. There's plenty of action, but there's also substance. It reminded me somewhat of a Louis L'Amour novel, but with deeper internal conflict, higher mental and spiritual stakes for the characters." Read Full Review Online

"I love a good western. The 1850s-1880s are one of my favorite time periods in history, so I was very excited about the book. I read it in about three days, and didn't want to put it down. I'll say right off that it is one of the very few books that have ever made me cry. It was painfully true to life. I think that is what made it so good. A lot of it wasn't as I anticipated, but the characters felt so real. I really came to love them and feel for them in their struggles and pain. I love K.M. Weiland's style of writing, and could see everything so clearly as I was reading. I could feel the emotion and see the characters' expressions and actions. I finished the book with a definite bittersweet feeling, in a good way, and look forward to reading more from K.M. Weiland." Read Full Review Online

"I really enjoyed the book A Man Called Outlaw. The book is very thought provoking on several issues that are current in everyday life. The book ended too soon for me. I wanted the story to continue. I am so respectful of your talent."

"'The weak fall and the strong conquer.' These are the opening lines of A Man Called Outlaw, the first offering by up and coming author K.M. Weiland. One of the most compelling reads in years, this book takes place in the frontier, and centers around a young man, his adoptive father, and a mysterious man from the past known only as the Outlaw. I found the book to be one of the most enjoyable I have read in years. The story is well thought out, and very readable, but where it really shines is in the area of character. The different approaches to the simple question of what is right and wrong are framed so beautifully, that any reader will be challenged to think about their world, and world view. I see that as one of the most remarkable things about this book, because a novel which prompts thought is one of the rarest things in current and recent literature. 'The weak fall, and the strong conquer,' is true in literature as in life, and this book I believe will continue to conquer for years to come."

—The ITEM Magazine

"Ms. Weiland weaves a good storyline with enough tension, action and fighting to keep most readers interested. Her descriptions paint vivid imagery. She knows and understands the lives of cattlemen, cowboys and their families. Her action scenes on horseback are exceptional. Toward the end of the book important elements of the plot converge toward a resounding climax." Read Full Review Online
