""I think of myself in that oral tradition -- as a troubadour, a village taleteller, the guy in the shadows of the campfire. That's the way I'd like to be remembered -- as a storyteller. A good storyteller.""

That's Louis L'Amour, in his own words. As his more than 120 books are read and re-read, discovered anew with each generation, Bantam is committed to keeping that storytelling tradition alive for generations to come.

Rye Tyler was twelve when his father was killed in an Indian raid. Taken in by a

mysterious stranger with a taste for books and an instinct for survival, Rye is schooled

in the hard lessons of life in the West. But after killing a man, he is forced to

leave his new home. He rides lonely mountain passes and works on dusty cattle drives

until he finds a job breaking horses. Then he meets Liza Hetrick, and in her eyes

he sees his future. After establishing himself as marshal of Alta, he returns, only

to discover that Liza has been kidnapped. Tracking her to Robbers' Roost, Rye is

forced to face the man who taught him all he knows about books, guns, and friendship.
