• Highly acclaimed, iconic author: Larry McMurtry is renowned for his elegiac prose, sharp wit, and engaging plotlines. His Thalia, Texas, series is among his most famous and Duane is an icon as much as his creator.
• The Thalia Finale: Readers have followed the life of Duane through The Last Picture Show, Texasville, Duane's Depressed, and When the Light Goes . Rhino Ranch, the final episode in Duane's saga, represents the end of an era and is the most unusual and compelling novel in the series.
• Irony, romance, and cycle of life: Duane comes back from a near-fatal heart attack to discover that his new neighbor has recently opened a rhino preserve on her property. As he watches his world change around him, he reminisces on love affairs past and the missed opportunities he now regrets. Rhino Ranch is a bittersweet and fitting end to this iconic series, a tribute to all of the emotion, hilarity, whimsy, and poignancy that readers have followed across decades.

Rhino Ranch
I gave it four stars because 1) I love Duane Moore and was so happy to have him back for one last book; and 2) I'm just relieved Larry McMurtry hasn't died yet.
The "chapters" are 1-2 pages long and there are some elements in the book that just don't seem to work. Once upon a time we would have gotten a book twice as long and there would have been a deeper exploration of Duane's travails and the new characters in his life.
Someone who has never read any McMurtry should not start with Rhino Ranch, but those of us who have loved him for years can forgive him for a short, choppy book and just appreciate the gift of a few more pages.
