Resumen del Editor

The classic Western, now newly repackaged as part of Bantam's Louis L'Amour's Lost Treasures program - with never-before-seen material from Louis and his son, Beau L'Amour.

“I am Johannes Verne, and I am not afraid.”

This was the boy’s mantra as he plodded through the desert alone, left to die by his vengeful grandfather. Johannes Verne was soon to be rescued by outlaws, but no one could save him from the lasting memory of his grandfather’s eyes, full of impenetrable hatred.

Raised in part by Indians, then befriended by a mysterious woman, Johannes grew up to become a rugged adventurer and an educated man. But even now, strengthened by the love of a golden-haired girl and well on his way to making a fortune in bustling early-day Los Angeles, the past may rise up to threaten his future once more.

And this time only the ancient gods of the desert can save him.

Louis L’Amour’s Lost Treasures is a project created to release some of the author’s more unconventional manuscripts from the family archives. In Louis L’Amour’s Lost Treasures: Volume 1 and Volume 2, Beau L’Amour takes the listener on a guided tour through many of the finished and unfinished short stories, novels, and treatments that his father was never able to publish during his lifetime. L’Amour’s never-before-seen first novel, No Traveller Returns, faithfully completed for this program, is a voyage into danger and violence on the high seas. Additionally, many beloved classics will be rereleased with an exclusive Lost Treasures postscript featuring previously unpublished material, including outlines, plot notes, and alternate drafts. These postscripts tell the story behind the stories that millions of readers have come to know and cherish.

A Great Read/Listen!

Any additional comments?

As someone who has read only a couple Louis L'amour books, I found this book immensely enjoyable. Not just a shoot 'em up and leave 'em for dead type books, but a story woven with mystery and questions of life and death. I found the book to be deeply philosophical as well and through it saw that L'amour's love of knowledge and books. Beside that, definitely a thrilling page turner with its fair amount of shooting!

Great Louis l’Amour western

Love the story. Longer than most of his books, but that gave it time to develop the characters more.
