  • "In the waning days of the Old West, many of the great Comanche warriors are old, and their sons would rather use guns than arrows. As Texas Rangers Gus McCrae and Woodrow Call ride out to protect the frontier, they are led by the eccentric Captain Inish Scull, who sits astride a massive stallion Indians call the Buffalo Horse. When a scheming Comanche steals this great beast, it sparks a chase that will lead the Captain into the clutches of a sadistic Mexican warlord -- and Gus and Call into a legendary rescue."@en

Comanche Moon completes Larry McMurtry's epic cycle of novels of the American West that began with the Pulitzer-Prize-winning masterpiece, Lonesome Dove. We join Texas Rangers August McCrae and Woodrow F. Call as they are just beginning to deal with the perplexing tensions of adult life. Gus, and his great love, Clara Forsythe, Call and Maggie Tilton, the young whore who loves him, when they enlist with a ranger troop in pursuit of Buffalo Hump, the great Comanche war chief; Kicking Wolf, the celebrated Comanche horse thief, and a deadly Mexican bandit king with a penchant for torture."@en
