Critic reviews

"The quick pace and tangled web of interconnected crimes will keep readers turning pages." ( Publishers Weekly)

Ick!

I love this series and all the characters are absolutely excellent. I definitely recommend this book, it might be one of the best in the series. On a personal note I was not completely satisfied with the romance playing out this book. The Sheriff's previous romance, albeit with a serial killer, was much more tasteful. It just didn't seem right that his daughter was in the hospital and that at the same time he was having a sexual affair with a woman who is about the same age as his daughter. Although I grimaced alot at times, I still loved the book! Excellent narrator!

Love this series

These books are well written and the narration is excellent. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good mystery that keeps you listening. You are both anxious to hear the outcome and then sad when it’s over. This particular book does not disappoint and leaves you wanting the next in the series.

Love this series!

I absolutely love Walt Longmire and the characters in this series. And George Guidall does a stellar job narrating with consistency of voice, pacing, and an understanding of character personalities that he is so well known for. I can't wait to read more in this series and highly recommend it to fans of any genre. Happy Reading!

love this series

Would you consider the audio edition of Kindness Goes Unpunished to be better than the print version?

I haven't read any of the series.

What did you like best about this story?

The continuous story. I don't want the series to end.

What about George Guidall’s performance did you like?

His voice and pacing is perfect.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I like the flashbacks and the literary allusions in all the books.

Any additional comments?

Again, I don't want the series to end.

Craig Johnson is the Best!

I listen to an average of 100 books a year, and the Longmire books are some of my most favorite! I find myself going back and relistening (they have to be fantastic for me to re-listen) time and again. George Guidall is a brilliant narrator, also one of my favorites!

Look out Philadelphia - a new sheriff is in town!

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

It was something completely different to have Walt Longmire out of his element but showing everyone good old Wyoming style and justice.

Which character – as performed by George Guidall – was your favorite?

Walt and Henry - always. It was nice to see Vic back in her hometown and meet the family - sort of.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Henry in Cady's hospital room. It brought tears to my eyes.

Any additional comments?

I enjoyed this book very much. Seeing Walt in another environment was interesting. It was also a very touching story with Walt's concern for Cady; Henry's concern for both Walt and Cady and the new characters we meet. I am completely enthralled with the Longmire series.

best one yet

I am going to make this brief as I want to get to the next Walt Longmeier book. Guidall is awesome reading a fantastic story with humor and historical refetences intertwined into a great suspense thriller who done it book

I'm Hooked

Just as I was with the TV series, I enjoy this Longmire series. I did not know it existed before it came on television. The stories are a little more involved and Longmire is a lot smarter in the books. Henry Standing Bear is the most interesting of all. I have someone to imagine as I listen. Vic is a lot different. I'm off to the next in the series!

It is what it is. Goood

Henry loves birds,owls,turkeys,and cannot forget crows. Eagles are important in the future present & past. Walt knows this from Henry as he learns in his ways.

Amother excellent performance and plot

If you could sum up Kindness Goes Unpunished in three words, what would they be?

Western, street wise.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Kindness Goes Unpunished?

Walt and Vic!

Have you listened to any of George Guidall’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

George only compares to himself. There is no one else close. This is just another impecable paerformance for the master!

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Western justice, Philly style.

Any additional comments?

Love the series and the charactors. Johnson's good work continues to impress.
