Critic reviews

"Johnson combines a vivid sense of the dailiness of life--and the way human relationships take root in that dailiness--with a sure--handed touch for jolting both his characters and his readers out of their comfort zones and deep into harm's way. It's hard to ask for more in a literary mystery." ( Booklist)

Loved it.

This series , for a mystery reader, is light, spell bounding, entertaining and offers a cup full of reading for pleasure.

another good book

I was afraid that this book was going to be a repeat of Johnson's first book. I was suspicious of the book being predictable... I dont want to be a spoiler of his first book with the who done it, but this book was following that same story line for a while. It took a great turn of intreague to qwell my concerns. This book is not predictable and its every bit as entertaining and will keep you interested in it that you won't want to put it down. Still has the humor of dynamic characters and situations. read it. you'll like it

Great

Complex story, thoughtful, engaging characters, great sardonic humor! Highly recommend all his books. He won’t regret it.

I loved the series, becoming a fan of the books.

I enjoyed the series. I wish it hadn't ended. Now listening to the books, the TV actors did a great job of following the books. A very good read.

I love the humor

The voices were perfect. I love the adventures mixed with humor. I recommend this series of books

Simply the best

Craig Johnson is now my favorite author. This is the second of his books I've read and it even exceeds his first, Cold Dish. Johnson is an immensely talented writer. Aside from the good mysteries, he has created unforgettable characters and sense of place. He combines a fantastic wit with just enough warmth to make you care about the characters and the story. I'm not a writer, so I can't do it justice...

Finally, George Guidall does a _superb_ job of narrating this story. By God I think he was born for such a time as this. Don't think I've read a more perfect author and narrator combination (and i have read many, MANY audio books.)

Magnificent

Everything about this novel is amazing. Somehow Craig Johnson was a way of making the most mundane parts of Walt's life seem interesting. The plot overall is very compelling and the mystery isn't easily solved. There is actually some black hearted foes which will push Walt to his limits. All and all this is an amazing book.

Another winner

This is the 2nd in the series, and 2nd i've listened to. So glad that it kept the great mix of humor, personality, and plot... I'll keep reading this series and to me, there is no better compliment.

A life without friends

means death without company. Basque Proverb 741

These stories are so good. The character development is full and rich. George Guidell's voice fits all the characters like a fine glove.

An old woman dies and the mystery begins. Was it a natural death or murder? And if murder who would kill a harmless old woman?

This is my third time listening to this one. It amazes me that the story does not quite go the way I remember it. It is like listening to an entire new book each time. Well done Mr. Johnson.

Fell in love

I love this series. I fell in love with the characters and the ramblings. I could walk in to this world and feel at home. It has a slow even pace that keeps me captivated. I am in love with Henry & Walt. Yes, there are cases to solve but that is only part of this wonderful book that will have you laughing and smiling all the way through.
