Publisher's summary

New York Times best-selling author C. J. Box delivers a novel starring Joe Pickett’s sidekick: fan favorite Nate Romanowski.

In Force of Nature, trouble comes calling from Nate’s past in the Special Forces, and the colleague he once called a friend won’t stop until those who know a deadly secret are silenced. Everyone close to Nate is at risk, including Joe and his family. To save them, Nate will have to convince law-abiding Joe to finally break a few rules along the way.

At The Edge of Your Seat!

Thrilling from beginning to end. Good to know a bit of Nate Romanowski’s childhood and military background.

This was the best So far

This story was amazing loved the whole back story on Nate if they would have just used this whole book as the tv show this season instead of taking pieces of it and combining it with the other book the Tv show might still be on hate when Tv butchers a good book

Great book

Would you consider the audio edition of Force of Nature to be better than the print version?

I loved this as an audiobook because listening to the book made me slow down and savor all the beautiful descriptions of the mountains, wilderness, weather, etc. It makes you feel like you are right there. When reading a print book I sometimes read too fast and skim over the descriptions.

What did you like best about this story?

I love the setting (western mountains and wilderness) and the action was non-stop.

Enjoyable

I’m not much for the series because most of the books are so similar. I pick at random and this seemed different and I thought it very enjoyable.

Now I have a new top 3 of my favorites

Fabulous. I loved it from start to finish. Nate is awesome. I will now have to read the rest of the series. Joe P character is wonderful. Narrator has probably the best voice I have heard. I have listened to a great many good narrators, but David C is now my favorite.

A definite must read!

Improbable but intriguing

This was my first book by this author and I don't think I expected it to be so violent. The plot was far fetched but I was drawn in from the beginning mainly due to the characters.

Love me some Nate!

This book involves Nate Romanouski (sp) more than any of the other Joe Pickett books and I enjoy the back ground stories of Nate's life. CJ Box captures you with the suspense of "what is Nate going to do next". The interesting points and notes about Falconry, are an unexpected treat. The story line grabs you and doesn't disappoint the devoted CJ Box fan, or the Joe Pickett fan!
