Dances with wolves

While this book is a sequel to Dances with wolves it is more about the decline of the Comanche tribe and its way of life. This book takes up Dances life with Stands with a fist about eleven years after we left them in the movie. It is a very good book and kept my attention all night, so I lost sleep. I almost gave this book five stars but have become cheap with that rating of late and save it for the really great books. It is four and a half stars though I cannot put that down. I wish they had a ten point rating system. If you like westerns and you liked the movie Dances with wolves I think you will enjoy this book. Narration is good but Will Patten would have been better. This writer reminds me of Larry McMurtry who wrote Lonesome Dove. That is high praise from me.

The Holy Road

Good book. Dances with Wolves is my all time favorite movie so I had to get this book. There is absolutely no excuse for the way the US treated these people. Good story.

good read

just wish there had been a clarification of what happened between the end of "dances with wolves ", when they left with the dairy, and this book. It was never mentioned Whay happened, and then they were living with the tribe for years???

Once the book gets going, it's an easy listen.

The narrator does an epic job with the Comanche voices.

This book is interesting nearly through and through.

Sad tale of a dark time in human history.

Well written follow up to Dances with Wolves. The story tells a more accurate account of history than you'll find in most schools. Narration is well done but would have been more fitting to have someone such as Graham Greene. Well worth the listen for both the story itself and for the glimpse into a tragic period of North American history.

Title: Lassiter

Author: Loren Zane Grey

Narrator: Ed Sala

Format: Unabridged

Length: 6 hrs and 59 mins

Language: English

Release date: 10-24-08

Publisher: Recorded Books

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 12 votes

Genres: Fiction, Westerns

Publisher's Summary:

This thrilling novel from the son of iconic Western author Zane Grey captures the spirit of the elder Grey's most popular and acclaimed book,

Riders of the Purple Sage. That book's hero, Lassiter - a softspoken loner with a fierce sense of morality and unsurpassed skill with firearms - helped establish the Western gunman archetype in fiction. Lassiter's tale continues in this action-packed yarn that serves up a hearty helping of frontier justice.

Lassiter Rides Again

In this, the first, of what would be a series of twelve books featuring Jim Lassiter, the prototypical gunman his father Zane Grey created and to which all other great gunmen are compared, Loren Zane Grey has tried to take us back to the years before "Riders of the Purple Sage" to give us a glimpse of the man and how he lived and what he did. Did he succeed? I'll leave that up to you. For me he didn't. But I know it is awfully difficult and dangerous to compare father and son. And despite Loren's own claim in People Magazine that he defied anyone to tell the difference between what he and his father wrote during the editorial process of readying some of the last manuscripts for publication--Black Mesa, The Reef Girl, and others--his style and writing of these books in no way compares to Zane Grey's, in descriptive quality, character development, or tone. That is not to say these books are not worth reading; they just don't match up with his father's work or legacy.

Publisher's Summary:

Lawman, manhunter, peacemaker - it takes a hard breed of man to survive as a Texas Ranger, but Chick Bowdrie stands head and shoulders above the rest. The rough trails are his home, from the Big Thicket to the Pecos to the border. He's dried by the desert sun and wind, scarred and toughened by uncounted gun battles, and when you look into his black eyes, it's like looking down the barrels of two .44s with their hammers drawn back. He rides in the name of justice, but he lives by his own law - Bowdrie's Law. And if you're thinking about walking on the wrong side of Bowdrie's Law, you'd better start running. Fast.

Audio Ruined By Loud Music

I'm very disappointed! What could have been a good story was ruined by loud music. What should have been background music many times was so loud it drowned out the spoken word. It was frustrating to try to listen to.

Louis L'Amour is one of my favorite authors, but I cannot recommend this version of Monument Rock.

Get this

Very good dramatization! I have most of Louis LâAmourâs audio adaptations but this one is one of my favorites.

Three Men Fighting Over One Woman!

Lou Morgan takes a shooting job, something he has earned a serious reputation in doing. A man, Lou named "The Scholar," because of his looks, is interested in a particular ranch; run by the lovely Nana Maduro. Another rancher, Henry Witterling, is making moves on Nana and The Scholar wants him removed from the picture. Unknown to all parties is the fact that Lou knows Nana and used to be in love with her himself. He takes the job, but it is for his own reasons, not the money, but Nana! As Lou begins to get involved, it becomes obvious that there is much more to the picture than a couple of men fighting over Nana! The audio is crisp and clear in an automobile environment. The voice characterizations are well cast, and the special effects excellent. Well worth the purchase price. Run time: 60 minutes.

"No Man's Man" - Full-cast audio cassette edition

Kurt Karavallis's voice portrayal of Lou Morgan is strong and inspiring. I have all the full-cast Bantam edition audio tapes of Louis L'Amour's short stories (50+ volumes), and though I like them all, this is one of my favorites. The Mexican flavor and ranch living reminds me of my years in southern Arizona. It's a great break from city life to get away to the fresh air and adventure of the mythic Old West.

Other good ones in this series are "Four-card Draw," "Riding for the Brand," and "Merrano of the Dry Country." In addition, all the Bowdrie ones are required listening. Wreathal Bean's inimitable portrayal of the legendary Texas ranger has become a classic.

I've had many hours of relaxing pleasure from these productions and highly recommend them. They play well over and over.

Awesome companion for trips!

I have developed a respect and appreciation for Louis L'Amour fairly late in life, and particularly enjoy audio versions of his stories. I listen to them on auto trips--in the West. I just returned from a 2600 mile journey that took me through parts of Nevada, Idaho, Wyoming, Montana and Oregon. These stories not only help the time go by smoothly, they create great memories associated with things along the way. The readers in this series are all excellent, and each story is captivating.

Nice Collection of Short Stories

I purchased several Louis L'Amour audio books for a recent road trip with my Dad. He's a big cowboy movie fan, and always enjoyed Louis L'Amour.

The short stories on both collections were fun to listen to, and I'll have to say that we each had different "favorites". I think that almost any L'Amour fan would enjoy these four short stories.

L'Amour, Louis

These are for of his short stories. It is in good shape & tipical of his stories.

Good Reading

You can't go wrong with a Louis L'Amour story. Here you get four of his short stories. The readers were good and managed to reflect the tenor of what L'Amour was telling.

Good stories for traveling the west

The author composed punchy, vivid stories of men (and occasionally women) of the west. The narrators do a great job. We listened to the recordings while traveling long empty stretches of the California desert, a great backdrop, and time (and the miles) flew by.

Title: The Killer from the Pecos (Dramatized)

Author: Louis L'Amour

Narrator: uncredited

Publisher: Random House Audio

Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 26 votes

Genres: Fiction, Westerns

Publisher's Summary:

Louis L'Amour brings you the Wild West as you've never heard it before. This classic story, complete with a full cast, stirring music, and authentic sound effects, sweeps listeners back to the rough and ready days of America's frontier, where a man had to live by his wits...and his gun.

Death is no stranger to Almagre, a rough boomtown in which the local cemetery, Boot Hill, is almost as crowded as the saloons. Almagre had sprung up in just under two years with a silver strike, and in that short time, it had buried three town marshals.

Into this wild and bloody town rides Texas Ranger Chick Bowdrie, trailing a Pecos bank robber who left two men dead. All Bowdrie has to go on is an unconvincing eyewitness description, a name scrawled on a tattered post card...and his own skills as a master tracker.

But it's his skill with a gun Bowdrie will need when he looks for answers in Almagre, for the town is gripped in a stranglehold by a ruthless cattle baron named Bonelli. To bring his quarry back, Bowdrie will pin on the marshal's star to face down Bonelli and his gunmen - in a town where a badge is a death warrant.

Dramatized are the best!

I love Louis L Amour books! I've been reading them since I was a kid. Enjoying them in dramatized audio version on my iPod and my Bose speaker is a real pleasure.
