Love Louis L'Amour

I don't know how he does it, each story is different, yet in all, one has the feeling of being there, right along with our hero. Whether listening or reading each character and setting can clearly be seen through the mind's eye. No wonder he's called the best story-teller of all time.

"Riders of the Dawn" is different than most of his stories I've read, with a woman playing a prominent role in the story.

The narrator gave a good performance.

I highly recommend it to all Louis L'Amour fans--and future fans.

Boy! That was a fantastic story. Louis L'Amour

Would you consider the audio edition of Riders of the Dawn to be better than the print version?

Yes. I think I get more out of it with the audio version.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Riders of the Dawn?

The big fist fight I guess was the best.

What does Jim Gough bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

He is good at telling a story, and made it interesting that held my attention.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No I had to brake it down to three sittings.

Any additional comments?

Louis L'Amour's books are always good to read or to hear being read. I have read most of his stories, a lot of them when I was in Korea in the Army. We sure miss you Louis L'Amour.

Cowboys

This Louis L'Amour story was a wonderful example of the good old westerns. I recommend this book since the narrator made it feel like you were right there on the range.

It was a good book!!

(I accidentally sent the review in, before Byron was finished. Now he will finish the evaluation.
A range war was brewing in this area. I was waiting to see how it would come out. I was pleased to see how they worked out their differences. And the young man did indeed marry the woman, as he had said he would!

My First

I absolutely loved this!
My first introduction to Louis L'amour after hearing about him as a contemporary with the great Carolyn Keene, author of the Nancy Drew Series.... I can't believe I waited so long!
I loved the characters, the plot, the action, the romance, the grit, the angst. I loved everything about this story and I would recommend you listen to it with joy like I did.

one of the best

thing about this writer is he was a real cowboy and lived the life. and probably one of the most popular writers of western books. Ojai California has a small room dedicated just to him and his books... some of his books are better than others but they're all worth reading.

Perfectly done

Best performer of a Louis l’Amour western I’ve ever heard
His voice was made for westerns, and the way he narrated it was perfection

bad accents

the narrator just can't do a decent accent of any sort. Irish, Mexican, Chinese, Indian they all sound the same.

Great!

This was a great book! Great context, story and also a great performance by the narrator.
