Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
I love Burke/Patton so was eager to sample a different venue. I was disappointed. I like Robicheaux thrillers so much I've bought several Apple Shuffles and distributed them among my friends. I won't be adding this one.Would you recommend Two for Texas to your friends? Why or why not?
No. I would recommend some of the many other Burke/Patton stories first.Which scene was your favorite?
Nothing stands outDo you think Two for Texas needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
No.Any additional comments?
I hope Burke continues to try different venues. I know I'll buy them, just wasn't as captivated with this theme as I have been with his past works. I download books Will Patton narrates because of his incredible soothing yet passionate voice. I wonder if he can mimic a Downeaster's dialect!Cajun goes County Western?

The Book
This may be (I HOPE!) a starter novel to see reader reactions. Well, my reaction is EXCELLENT. I say starter as the novel is quite short... about 5 hours. I so wanted it to go on, but Burke resolves all threads and ends it with me wanting more. I doubt Birke reads these reviews but if he is doing so... Write more on Son and Hugh!
Somehow, the publishers summary was pretty correct... something that as we know does not always happen... so if I write much more, it might spoil for others, but just a hint...
We meet Jim Bowie, Sam Houston, come close to Davy Crockett...
Will Patton is so good he is scary. Stealing a comment from another reviewer, he could read the US tax code and make it interesting.
One of our two heroes, Hugh... well... it's Clete from some of Burke's other fine books. I recognized it instantly, but it is not even a minor distraction.
Get the book. I guarantee that the five hours you will spend will only improve your life!
So Good... and a bonus! Clete is here!

What made the experience of listening to Two for Texas the most enjoyable?
The historical aspect of this novel was wonderful. Meeting Houston and Bowie were so cool. As a kid I remember these 2 historical figures. Also the humor is off the chart. I kept laughing out loud many times.Who was your favorite character and why?
Hugh by far. One of the best and funniest characters Burke has produced. Old, salty, lippy, and one eyed. I fell in love with this character immediately.Have you listened to any of Will Patton’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Every one that is available on Audible. I loved this one. I put this performance near the top.If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly visit Texas.Any additional comments?
Burke is the best living American author.One of Burke's best ever.
