De: Zane Grey

Narrado por: full cast, Dylan Lynch, Sherry Berg, Nora Achrati, Andy Clemence, Rose Supan, Bradley Smith, Terence Aselford, Richard Rohan, David Jourdan, Ken Jackson, David Coyne

Zane Grey first presented this brilliant story of the West in a much shorter form as a magazine serial in 1914. Readers were thrilled and greeted it as another masterpiece from one of the West's greatest storytellers.

The manuscript would suffer at the hands of Grey's book publishers, however. They took the second half of the story, deleted characters, changed the hero's name, and pasted it with the first half of another Grey manuscript to produce the awkward hybrid published as The Lone Star Ranger. Now, decades after its creation, the complete story finally appears in GraphicAudio as the author wrote it, restored to its original glory.

The Law of the Rangers

Deputy Marshal Russ Sittell is on special assignment from the Texas Rangers to work with Vaughan Steel in putting a stop to the rampant rustling in Pecos County. But everyone knows that local rancher - and mayor - Granger Longstreth doesn't want any Ranger interference in his town. When Russ takes a job on Longstreth's ranch, he's able to learn exactly how the rancher operates - and he witnesses the growing tension between Longstreth and Steele. A tension that can only lead to trouble.

Performed by Dylan Lynch, Sherry Berg, Nora Achrati, Andy Clemence, Rose Supan, Bradley Smith, Terence Aselford, Richard Rohan, David Jourdan, Ken Jackson, David Coyne, Steven Carpenter, Gary Telles, Michael John Casey, Eric Messner, Elizabeth Jernigan.

Texas Ranger

This is a good book about The Texas Rangers. Ranger Steel is sent to clean up a town. Marshall Russ is sent undercover to help. I liked how they worked together and didn't try to out do the other. There is two women in the book that got on my nerves. They are spoiled. This was an enjoyable book. There is a lot of action and undercover work. I think you have to pay a little extra attention to keep up with everyone and what there part is. This is a movie in your mind style of book with several narrators.

The drama, multiple characters kept everything moving.

I liked the research of Zane Grey. He brought it to his public and one could learn, and “live” in that time period. It was a western, and a love story. And, it worked to give the reader an insight into the people and life at that time.

Bad Sound

I generally love the dramatized westerns and have many in my library. This one had problems with sound to the point of distraction.

It was not mixed properly. For example, there are scenes where a character was meant to be hiding out listening to conversations and it was muffled for effect to the point I could barely hear it. This happened numerous times through the book. It was so frustrating I had to go back a number of times to hear what they were saying.

It was a shame because there were some really good actors. the women had beautiful voices! I wish it could be remixed.

The story line was interesting, typical of Zane Gray. The exciting and dedicated Ranger characters had complex moral compasses and ultimately made the day!

I recommend it but have patience.
