Opening in the settlement of Long Grass, Texas - not quite in Kansas, and nearly New Mexico - we encounter the taciturn Wyatt, whiling away his time in between bottles, and the dentist-turned-gunslinger Doc, more adept at poker than extracting teeth. Now hailed as heroes for their days of subduing drunks in Abilene and Dodge - more often with a mean look than a pistol - Wyatt and Doc are living out the last days of a way of life that is passing into history, two men never more aware of the growing distance between their lives and their legends.

Did this one for the money
Revisado: 03-27-18
Used to like McMurtry, but this one he did to get a check. Full of so many cheap shots and tired stereotypes I was embarrassed for him. Not worth the time.

Ike McAlister returns home to Kansas after the Civil War, his soul bruised and empty. Worse, his parents have been killed by Quantrill's raiders who are still on the loose. No stranger to death and destruction, he vows to run the killers down. A clue leads him to the high plains of Colorado, but when his sister, Sue, disappears from there, his world quickly spins out of control. In the midst of this turmoil, a feisty landlady sparks an attraction, the only good thing in Ike's life.

Lots of surprises!
Revisado: 02-27-18
If you could sum up The Reckoning in three words, what would they be?
Lots of surprises!
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Reckoning?
The way the chief bad guy meets his maker.
What does Tom Sleeker bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Tom does an excellent job of giving voice to the various characters without resorting to silly techniques.
Who was the most memorable character of The Reckoning and why?
Definitely Ike. A real man who has real problems and uses real solutions.
Any additional comments?
I like this book a lot. No formula Old West plot here. Just when you think you have a pretty good idea what's going to happen, the author does an excellent job of heading off in a unexpected direction. The characters were real and people you could relate to.

The plane circled in the dark. Joe Pickett could just make out down below a figure in the snow and timber, and then three other figures closing in. There was nothing he could do about it. And Joe knew that he might be their next target. The Cates family had always been a bad lot. Game warden Joe Pickett had been able to strike a fierce blow against them when the life of his daughter April had been endangered, but he'd always wondered if there'd be a day of reckoning.

CJ keeps improving. Had trouble putting this one down. Even if you don't follow Joe, you're going to like this.
