( )I've never been much on Westerns, but this was a great read. McMurtry does his best in portraying the characters that pepper the book with a quick dialog and good action. The story surrounds an Easterner who writes dime novels. He abandons his family to follow his heart to the Wild West where he meets up with a very conflicted Billy the Kid. Imaginative plus. A fictional biography of the adventures of Billy the Kid. McMurtry runs out of gas when the series is pushed too far: re-read "Lonesome Dove" instead of picking up this one. no reviews | add a review
