Title: This book must have been rushed by a deadline...
Review: I bought the unabridged cassette tape version of this book, to keep me company on a long business trip in my car. I had visions of another Ned and Zeke, another book on tape that I treasure, from McMurtry. For the most part, being from the same part of the country the book is set, I enjoyed it...as I got to the sixth and final cassette tape, however, I became worried...how can this story end now???? And it did...just like he had run out of paper in his word processor, or ink, or ideas, or his advance....he sews the story up and ends it just when things are getting exciting. The book ends up like a book that was salvaged from manuscript form when the author died suddenly. Larry, I love your writing, but I want my money back for this one. You KNOW this wasn't ready to publish, yet you let your publisher go ahead and publish. Shame on you. When a writer begins to love his money more than his characters and his product, it's time to retire.
