Description
Lucky Luke. The Rice Battle.
Book Summary
This volume, previously unpublished in Spanish, recovers three new adventures of the fastest cowboy in the West. Readers will find the legendary Lucky Luke facing situations as diverse as a peculiar agricultural war, a battle of wills with the Dalton brothers, and a mysterious case of mistaken identity. A unique opportunity to complete the collection with classic stories that remained unpublished or were difficult to find.
What is it about?
The book collects three independent stories starring Lucky Luke and his loyal horse Jolly Jumper. In the main story, "The Rice Battle," the cowboy must mediate a conflict between farmers that threatens to unleash a pitched battle over the control of crops. The other two adventures complete the volume: one in which the Dalton brothers attempt a new heist, and another where an impostor sows chaos by impersonating the famous gunslinger. With Morris's characteristic humor, each story combines action, snappy dialogue, and the subtle social critique that defines the series.
