THE TURKEYFEATHER RIDERS (audiobook) by Louis L'Amour


Published in 2004 by Random House Audio as a book on cassette.

Published in 2008 as a digital audiobook.

Multicast performance.

Duration: 1 hour, 8 minutes.

Unabridged.


Louis L'Amour (1908-1988) wrote well more than 100 novels and non-fiction works - maybe 200, depending on how you count them up. If you count individual short stories, you can add in hundreds more. L'Amour's writing career started out as a short story writer for magazines, beginning in 1938. I assume that this short story started out in a magazine but I could not find any record of when or where it was originally published. 

The Turkeyfeather Riders was adapted from a short story into old style radio play for this production. This includes special effects and multiple actors playing different characters. 

My synopsis.

The plot is pretty simple. Jim Sandifer is a ranch foreman. He and his widower boss get along fabulously, but when his boss comes home with a fiancé and her son, Sandifer becomes suspicious of their motives. When Sandifer starts to investigate, things get hairy...

My Review.

This was a fun little story. I was looking for a change of pace and this fit the bill perfectly. It's not very complicated and the performances are very good. The special effects are well done, too. 

I rate this audiobook 4 stars out of 5. It can be found on Amazon.com here: The Turkeyfeather Riders by Louis L'Amour.
