Very good story by a first time author, highly recommended! This is a very well written story, very tight no padding just to get the page count up. Ron Fuller Welch is a first time author and this is a great story. He set the story in an area, that he knows very well and kept the subject matter in an area, where he was comfortable and could do research to sprinkle facts in with fiction, to make the story logical and therefore believable. I highly recommend this book to anyone, but I don’t think he’s finished. I’m confident we will be seeing a sequel at some point. I know I’m looking forward to it as I’ll be buying that book as well!

A stellar first novel! “Brutus” grabs you by the throat right from the start. The pace never lets up as you follow the story through the Smoky Mountains National Park. Those who have been there will remember many land marks from this wonderful area of the United States. It’s a novel that shows the bond of LOVE between man and animal and what happens when a threat comes between Brutus and his caretaker, “Jeb.” You will not want to put this one down once you start. It moves at break neck speed. 5 stars!

Hollywood needs Brutus. We need Brutus on the “Big Screen!” If this don’t get picked up by a top movie studio, somebody dropped the ball on a blockbuster. This would definitely set box office records!

Amazing! Mr. Welch puts all of his storytelling skills to use here, to tell the story of Brutus, a killer lion on the loose in the Great Smokey Mountains and the desperate attempt to stop him. This is a wonderfully original idea that leaves one wondering “could this really happen?”

Sean Bryne

A fierce first novel! With Brutus, Ron Fuller Welch has written a first class adventure thriller. A JAWS of sorts, for dry land. A Brutus movie in the future!

Ron Fuller Welch should have taken up a writing career, a little bit earlier in his life, because he definitely has a talent, for writing thrillers!

Mitch Miller

Man of many hats, adds another! Ron Fuller Welch trades in his pencil for a keyboard, to write this thriller!
