About this product

Product Information

Part epic of Texas, part classic coming-of-age story, part unflinching portrait of the bloody price of power, The Son is an utterly transporting novel that maps the legacy of violence in the American West through the lives of the McCulloughs, an ambitious family as resilient and dangerous as the land they claim. Love, honour, children are sacrificed in the name of ambition, as the family becomes one of the richest powers in Texas, a dynasty of unsurpassed wealth and privilege. Yet, like all empires, the McCulloughs must eventually face the consequences of their choices.

  • Writing style and characters not engaging

    Despite great reviews , the writing style and voice left me cold.Gave up early on, the characters not drawing me in at all.Didn't enjoy the jumping about style in terms of time; that can work well but I didn't think it was skilfully done in this novel.
