An epic adventure of heroism, tragedy, honor, and betrayal, and the culmination of Larry McMurtry's acclaimed western saga that began with Lonesome Dove, Comanche Moon finds Texas Rangers August McCrae and Woodrow F. Call in their middle years, just beginning to experience the perplexing romantic entanglements of adult life. For Gus, there is his great love, Clara Forsythe, who longs for the security of marriage; for Call, there is the beautiful young whore, Maggie Tilton, who bears him a son. Following a brutal Comanche raid on Austin, Gus and Call enlist with a Ranger troop in pursuit of the legendary war chief Buffalo Hump, a campaign that reunites them with such familiar comrades-in-arms as Deets, Jake Spoon, and Pea Eye Parker, and introduces an exciting new cast of characters, including the eccentric Harvard professor turned Texas Ranger Captain Inish Scull; the notorious Mexican outlaw king Ahumado; and the celebrated Comanche horse-thief Kicking Wolf.Library JournalIf you've ever wondered what happened between Dead Man's Walk and Lonesome Dove, here's your chance to find out.
