Lonesome Dove: Comanche Moon

From Pulitzer Prize-winning author Larry McMurtry, Comanche Moon is the sweeping, action-packed second installment in the legendary Lonesome Dove saga.

This epic prequel continues the story of Texas Rangers Augustus "Gus" McCrae and Woodrow Call. Now in their middle years, Gus and Woodrow are joined by their old friend Pea Eye Parker as they face the challenges of a changing frontier. Their mission remains the same: to protect the settlers of the Texas territory and maintain order in a land defined by lawlessness and conflict.

As they pursue the formidable Comanche war chief Buffalo Hump and the cunning Mexican bandit Ahumado, the Rangers must also navigate the complexities of their own lives and the growing tensions within the territory. McMurtry masterfully blends historical grit with deep character exploration, providing the vital bridge between the early adventures of Dead Man’s Walk and the Pulitzer Prize-winning Lonesome Dove.
