Título: Yondering (Louis L'Amour's Lost Treasures): Stories
Autor: Louis L'Amour
Sinopse: As part of the Louis L’Amour’s Lost Treasures series, this edition contains exclusive bonus materials!
“Over the years I have been proud to write about the men and women of the American frontier. But I have written many stories with entirely different settings which I have long wanted to share with my readers.
“I have collected some of these in Yondering. They are glimpses of what my own life was like during the early years. Those were the rough years; often I was hungry, out of work and facing situations such as I have since written about.
“Although these stories take place in a variety of locales, they are stories of people living under conditions similar to the way they might have lived on the frontier. I hope you’ll enjoy Yondering.”
—Louis L’Amour
Louis L’Amour’s Lost Treasures is a project created to release some of the author’s more unconventional manuscripts from the family archives.
In Louis L’Amour’s Lost Treasures: Volumes 1, Beau L’Amour takes the reader on a guided tour through many of the finished and unfinished short stories, novels, and treatments that his father was never able to publish during his lifetime. L’Amour’s never-before-seen first novel, No Traveller Returns, faithfully completed for this program, is a voyage into danger and violence on the high seas. These exciting publications will be followed by Louis L’Amour’s Lost Treasures: Volume 2.
Additionally, many beloved classics will be rereleased with an exclusive Lost Treasures postscript featuring previously unpublished material, including outlines, plot notes, and alternate drafts. These postscripts tell the story behind the stories that millions of readers have come to know and cherish.

Sobre a editora
Os livros da editora Bantam oferecem uma experiência de leitura marcada por narrativas que transitam entre o suspense psicológico, o thriller investigativo e a aventura com pitadas de romance e fantasia. O catálogo apresenta histórias que exploram conflitos intensos, como perseguições policiais, mistérios familiares e embates em cenários urbanos ou fantásticos, muitas vezes com personagens complexos enfrentando dilemas morais e pessoais profundos. A linguagem varia entre o acessível e o envolvente, com ritmo que ora acelera em cenas de tensão, ora desacelera para aprofundar a construção dos personagens e suas relações. As sinopses sugerem uma preferência por tramas que combinam ação com elementos de drama e emoção, contemplando tanto o público adulto quanto leitores que apreciam narrativas mais densas e multifacetadas.
