Publisher's Summary
Val Darrant was just four years old the snowy night his mother abandoned him. But instead of meeting a lonely death, he met Will Reilly - a gentleman, a gambler, and a worldly, self-taught scholar. For 10 years they each were all the family the other had, traveling from dusty American boomtowns to the cities of Europe - until the day Reilly’s luck ran out in a roar of gunfire.
But it wasn’t a gambling brawl or a pack of thieves that sealed Will’s fate. It was a far more complex story that Val would soon uncover, one that touched upon Val’s nearly forgotten childhood, the woman who was Will Reilly’s lost love, and the violent future of a growing country.

"Glad this book is finally here!"
I grew up reading books of Louis L'Amour. I have read this book 20 plus times. So when I saw it was available on audible, I jumped on it. Then to have Bridges narrate it, it was perfect. I just hope they keep making more of his books available, next I am waiting on is Flint!

"Another Great Read By Louis L'Amour"
This is a touching story about a man alone who raises a boy nobody wants, and taught him to be a man. An honest gambler, he and the boy travel in many countries, but it's the west they love.
The narrator gave a good performance.
A must read for L'Amour fans, or great as a first read for those unfamiliar with his stories.0 of 0 people found this review helpful -

"A boy who becomes a man of grest proporations"
A book about a young boy not wanted by a severely selfish mother and the man who mentored him from a boy to a young man. Justice prevails from the West to Europe and back!

"Not what I'm used to for Lamour..."
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?Reilly's Luck was not what I'm used to for Lamour but i enjoyed it anyway. I would recommend this to a friend because it kept you wandering what was going to happen next.

"Always a good "Listen""
What did you love best about Reilly's Luck?Louis L'Amour is the ultimate story teller. His development of the characters and the plot with his knowledge of the west, in this case, spins seamlessly together.
