Lone Star audio

Narrated by Nick Landrum

Using spare, haunting imagery reminiscent of Cormac McCarthy's novels, Tony Award-winning author William Hauptmann spins a tale as mesmerizing as the giant skies that loom over the Texas plains. Burl Drennan's life is unexceptional until, one day, he watches a gigantic twister roar through his small Panhandle town. From then on, he is a storm chaser. This quest will color every corner of his life and lead him to revelation in the light-ringed throat of a tornado. "This one is a find, conveying mystery and hard-edged wonder while evoking a Texas that will be difficult for readers to forget."-Kirkus Reviews
