Publisher's summary

He was etched by the desert's howling winds, a big, broad-shouldered man who knew the ways of the Apache and the ways of staying alive. She was a woman alone raising a young son on her own on a remote Arizona ranch. And between Hondo Lane and Angie Lowe was the warrior Vittoro, whose people were preparing to rise against the white men. Now the pioneer woman, the gunman, and the Apache warrior are caught in a drama of love, war, and honor.

Talented Writing

This was a fabulous story. The author has no bias. He doesn’t tell you what to think, he just tells a great story. Love the descriptive language.

True Love

If you loved John Wayne's movie or the TV show you will really enjoy this book. It is really a love story with a western theme.

The story is simple. Yet I still found myself interested in knowing what happens next. Vocals set a mood.

Hondo is a badass dude

No wonder this was made into a great
Movie shot in Mexico and other western states.
It’s a great story with good weaving and descriptions.

Nice story

I’ve never watched the movie but I did picture John Wayne in my mind the entire story. Has good action and stories about honesty and duty but overall it’s a love story to me. Enjoyed it!!

Hondo

One of Louis L’Amour’s best I’m starting to talk like cowboys and Indians. A must read if you like Louis l’Amour !
