Getting the back story for two characters is a hard task given you know they will live. McMurty artfully spun this yarn in a way that you eventually forget they'll make it, and become engrossed in the adventure and danger of it all.

Good audio, but might need the physical book

If you're like me and can't sit down to devote time on textbook like information the audio book may be the way to go. I never would have made it through reading this and consequently wouldn't have gained the insight it offered. With that said, it may now be worth buying a physical copy to go back and reference some of the more technical information in the future. Great book with great insights.

If you listened to Lonesome Dove, this is an excellent followup. even if it has been a while, McMutry does sufficient explaining so you're not lost on any characters mentioned from Lonesome Dove.

I listened out of curiosity since so much credit seems to be attributed to this book. It is written like a poem disguised as a memoir with the truth of a novel. The intent seems less to inform and more to convey a feeling. Maybe the feeling of a generation, but I found it more the feeling of this singular author who has wrapped his whole identity around Vietnam and just wants someone to see him so he has purpose. You decide.

Before listening to this book if you would have told me there was anything interesting about Ohio or that it had any significance in our westward expansion I wouldn't have believed it. Now I know better.

Once again, Klavan made realistic characters in a gritty situation. The only thing missing is the "E"s in "Klavan."

Klavan created a realistic person with flaws and faults that drives the story forward. He does a great job of spinning the story so you don't know what will happen next and leaves you guessing right up to the end. The only thing missing is more "E"s in Klavan.

This was recommended by a friend and I often listen to books while running. I got hooked and ran alot of miles in the past couple weeks just to continue listening. Excellent characters, excellent narrator, and every kind of adventure you could ask for in a Western Novel.

I looked up when this was first released (2008) and was surprised how relevant it was to the things going on today. Klavan always has just enough light-heartedness in his novels to make them fun in the face of the obscurity of life. If you miss the sarcasm you're probably a miserable person. It could use more Es in "Klavan" though.
