The acclaimed sequel to Larry McMurtry’s Pulitzer Prize–winning classic Lonesome Dove, and the culmination of the legendary western saga, follows the further adventures of these beloved characters as they reckon with their past choices and uncertain futures in the rapidly changing American West.

Captain Woodrow Call, August McCrae's old partner, is now a bounty hunter hired to track down a brutal young Mexican bandit. Riding with Call are an Eastern city slicker, a witless deputy, and one of the last members of the Hat Creek outfit, Pea Eye Parker, now married to Lorena—once Gus McCrae's sweetheart. This long chase leads them across the last wild stretches of the West into a hellhole known as Crow Town and, finally, into the vast, relentless plains of the Texas frontier.

Although I like McMurtry's books, this one just seemed to take the cake when I finished it tonight. It seems to me that Larry loves to introduce his characters into his stories, gets you to love them or hate them, and then kills them off slowly! I think he just likes to play with his "readers-listeners" emotions, similarly to some of his characters "killings". Why else would all the main characters be gone now, in the Lonesome Dove saga's, well......almost gone, only one's left are P-i, Lorena, and barely by a whisker, Call.

I rate it 4 starsband not 5 because I became so attached to Lonesome Dove's characters, then to find out that some of them are just swept away. . .The book made me feel empty early on, and I can't say it got better. . . although I do believe McMurtry knows how to write a good story. . .that sounds like I'm all over the place with this book. . .well, I guess that's about right.
