"Pretentious"
I guess Craig Johnson studied English Literature and maybe some classics? So he has his rural hero dipping into Roget's from time to time to impress us with what one does with a degree in English Literature and maybe some classics? I hate it when they do that. I know that this guy's got a following and some find him marvelously deep. I tried to plumb those depths but each time I dove in, I hit my head on the bottom so little-far from the surface.
George Guidall reeeeeeely tries to make this deeeeep character seem like your trail buddy, but even he didn't do it for me. Sorry.
"Another Good Book in this Series"
The jumping back and forth in time was a little irritating at first but really helped to build the story. Stay with it.
"A great " who done it""
I personally like it a lot. And was surprised at how well he told the Vietnam war stories. Guessing that he was too young to be there for it!
Wish Vic and the Dog would have had more parts.
"AWESOME!!!! Have to listen to all of them. "
George Guidall is awesome as the narrator/voices!!!! I am definitely listening to all of the Longmire novels!
"Not my favorite book of the series "
The story was fair but my main problem was switching back and forth between the current time period and Vietnam with little pause between scenes.
"Great series!"
Craig Johnson is my favorite author at the moment. Pair him with my favorite reader from way back, George Guidall, and this series keeps me coming back over and over.
"Walt History"
I enjoyed the flashbacks to a young Walt and a young Henry. The present mystery was well spun. Reading it was just like relating to many Vets from that war in real life; I always felt like there were two story lines going on, and I may not want to know the one hidden from me. Characters and their relationships keep being fleshed out in believable ways. Some reviewers didn't like this, but I do, and I think it's solid.
"Always good and always thought provoking "
Love Walt Longmire and his extended family
George guidAll does a super job on the narration and makes me want to go to Wyoming
"Always worth it"
I love these characters and the narration is perfect. The back and forth from current day to Viet Man was well played.
"Love this book."
Craig Johnson is a masterful storyteller, and George Guidall is the perfect reader for this tale. I hope Mr. Guidall keeps reading many more, if not all, the Longmire audiobooks. Because I plan to keep reading.
