Editorial Review:
Dan Killoe--over six feet of tough, raw, lightning fast man. He had a trail heard and a mass of settlers to get across unknown territory to a new land. Then he gave shelter to a stranger being hunted by Felipe Soto, scar-faced leader of the renegade Comancheros. This time Killoe was borrowing more trouble than he wanted to handle.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - It's a Louis L'Amour...what else could you want?
Louis L'Amour wrote many novels and short stories, none left anything to be desired. This book is no exception. It's a story of survival, life and love. To anyone who may need to read someone else's opinion and rating of this or any other book written by this author, take it from me, buy the book, read the book and love it like so many other people already have.
Rating:  - The Kaybar Moves From Texas To New Mexico
This western was published by Bantam Books in 1962. Essentially an interesting and fact-filled story of a group of Texans after the war with Mexico in the late 1850's who decide to move west.
In the spring and summer of 1858 they decide to move further west to New Mexico in the vicinity of Fort Stanton, built in 1855, and Bosque Redondo. While Louis L'Amour offers many aspects of their subsequent cattle drive, this story equally concerns this group of people and their relocation ... Read More
Rating: - 1858 a great yr.
In 1858 because Texas was getting crowded Dan Killoe, his parents and friends plus all of their cattle headed west to find new, untouched land. Along their travels they ran into the (BAD) guys who wanted to take their cattle as well as the Comanches who wanted their hair. The comancheros would steal and kill everything they could get their hands on. A mean story to keep you on yoiur seat.
Rating: - Troubled Trails.
Texas ~ 1858. Dan Killoe ramrods a ragtag group of ranch families who pull up stakes and push their herds west. Searching for new country, they fight rustlers, Comanches, and raiding Comancheros. This is an ambitious novel. The story has gunfights, cattle stampedes, and a dollop of romance. In the grim desert, the water shortage for the great herd is severe. Breeding stock dangerously diminishes. Failure and lonesome death loom. Courage, loyalty, and survival are common themes. The action is ... Read More
Rating: - A really good read
This is the first book I've read by the author and certainly not the last. Western literature is not really my forte, but I'm sure if you read this book, you will become a fan. My only complaint is that the chapters were too long and there was'nt any good stopping points to close the book. Anyone who reads as sporadically as I do, knows what I'm talking about. Great characters as well.
