HombreBy CpheI haven't read anything by the author, nor viewed the movie adaption so can't compare the two however it's no secret that I enjoy a good "western".The story unfolds through the eyes of Carl Allen who is a passenger on a stagecoach that is waylaid by robbers. Among the passengers is John Russell a white man who spent his early years living amongst the Indians.This is a novel of prejudice and greed versus survival and moral integrity. Good versus evil. Loved the setting and the style. The delivery suited the environment the barren and arid desert. Enjoyed the characters presented here, particularly the enigmatic and taciturn John Russell who walks between two worlds.This is more of a longer length novella but well written I thought and offers more than just a novel of the western genre.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. suspense goes on and on between spurts of actionBy Ricky BAn unusual western in that there are lots of taut situations where the waiting and stand-offs are filled with a terse suspense. High minded cowardly characters do the most haranguing and interestingly that includes the flawed character that is the storyrsquo;s narrator / chronicler. These contrast with the storyrsquo;s half-breed antihero. Though I haven't watched the movie in ages its plot and characters remained memorable and more so now.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. The book is good, but the movie with Paul Newman and Richard Boone is better.By Charles T.I think my expectations were too high. If you've seen the movie with Paul Newman and Richard Boone, then you know the story. If you haven't seen it, you should. The movie was true to the book and more entertaining. [Read by Richard Poe] Grand Master Elmore Leonard is justifiably acknowledged as ''the best writer of crime fiction alive'' (Newsweek) -- and, in fact, one of the very best ever, alongside other all-time greats like John D. MacDonald, Dashiell Hammett, James M. Cain, and Robert Parker. But he has also many acclaimed masterworks of American western fiction to his credit -- including Hombre, the basis for the classic Hollywood motion picture starring Paul Newman. Set in Arizona mining country, Hombre is the tale of a white man raised by Indians, who must come to the aid of people who hate him when their stagecoach is attacked by outlaws. As thrilling as his contemporary novels of crime, double-cross, and murder in Detroit and Miami, Hombre is Elmore Leonard at his riveting best -- no less than one would expect from the creator of U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens (Justified). ''Although known for his mysteries, Elmore Leonard has penned some of the best western fiction ever.'' --USA Today ''A classichellip;.Leonard's writing style is as effortless and enjoyable as watching a good movie.'' --Portland OregonianFrom the Back CoverJohn Russell was raised as an Apache, and even served as a member of the tribal police. Now the time has come for him to leave the San Carlos reservation far behind and live again as a white man. The stagecoach passengers he's traveling with want nothing to do with this man they call "Hombre," forcing him to ride in the boot with the driver. But they change their tune when outlaws ride down on them. Suddenly they all must rely on Russell's guns and his ability to survive in the desert. They shunned John Russell, and now they must follow him . or die.About the AuthorElmore Leonard (1925-2013) wrote more than fifty books during his highly successful career, including the bestsellers Djibouti, Road Dogs, Mr. Paradise, Tishomingo Blues, and the critically acclaimed collection of short stories, When the Women Come Out to Dance.
