"Spur Award finalist S.J. Dahlstrom has brought this coming-of-age tale to life through his natural, easy writing style and stunningly beautiful descriptions. I have been a Wilder fan from the start, and each subsequent adventure only gets better."―Rocky Gibbons, Roundup Magazine
What if everything you thought about deer hunting was wrong? That the biggest deer wasn’t always the best one.
Wilder is back on his grandad’s ranch in West Texas and a run-in with his dangerous neighbor, Saul, spins Wilder’s head like the blizzard that hits the ranch the day before Thanksgiving. Along with his sister, Molly, Wilder must rethink his ideas about what a trophy is, and how he relates to the wild landscape around him.

"Another excellent book in the Wilder Good series"―Robert Pratt, Pratt on Texas
"This wholesome and adventurous story would make a great read-aloud for fathers and sons who hunt together."―World Magazine
“Dahlstrom’s writing reminds me of the books of Jim Kjelgaard who wrote realistic novels that had the gift of drawing in both adults and children. The book (Silverbelly) explores the ethics behind hunting, and the larger issue of where our food comes from. Anyone who eats meat should read this book.”―The Slatonite
"This is an outstanding book to share with your kids, your grandkids, or any other young person with whom you’d like to share the love of hunting and the outdoors―and is even something us 'older' readers will greatly enjoy."―The Journal of Texas Trophy Hunters(Nov/Dec 2020)
