Archetypal

My book takes place in the forest where everything is wild and unknown. The main character Matt Bardoul, starts as a innocent embarking on a journey. He was just living the free life roaming the West, when he met the girl of his dreams. He then became committed to her and began his journey. When trouble came he changed into a hero and saved many people while putting his own life on the line. The plot is a journey and Matt takes the journey throughout the book. It is a journey on a wagon train in search of "gold".
