A Requiem for Boon

De: Ed Kurtz

Narrado por: Laura Virella, Joshua Saxon

The epic saga of Boon Angchuan ends—but not before she finally finishes her bloody quest.

Edward Splettstoesser and Liliana Contreras have been on the trail together for the better part of a decade, searching for their long-lost friend Boon. After so many dusty miles and bitter disappointments, they finally track her down to a Wyoming prison and begin hatching plans to break her out. But all hell breaks loose, and in the middle of the pandemonium is “the Frenchman,” one Emile Champlain, who may very well hold the long-sought secret of what truly happened to Boon’s mother, Pimchan.

The chase is on, from the Wyoming State Prison to a hellish confrontation at a cattle ranch, ultimately leading them to the frozen, far-flung Alaskan and Western Canadian wildernesses in the throes of the Gold Rush. There, Champlain holds court over his ill-gotten fiefdom and awaits the final showdown with the wildest woman in the west.

The explosive conclusion to the Boon Trilogy, A Requiem for Boon is her biggest, bloodiest, and most consequential adventure yet, where the fates of her and her dearest friends all hang precariously in the balance.

A fitting end to the saga of Boon

Author Ed Kurtz brings us one final ride with Boon and her companions Edward and Liliana. The mission is one of great importance to Boon, but the real story is in the journey and the relationships between the characters. In the end, I'm a little sad it's over, but I'm glad I got to experience the saga of Boon.

The narrators were both excellent, but I found the production quality lacking a bit in this one. There are some duplicated sentences that didn't get edited out. Some of the sound quality fluctuates, especially in the latter half. Regardless, the narrators made the story enjoyable even more than if I'd read it, and I appreciate the work they both put in.

A Fantastic Western Trilogy

Amazing writing. Fantastic narration.
This is the kind of writing that that's turned me into a western fan.
