Stone Cold: Joe Pickett, Book 14

De: C. J. Box

Narrado por: David Chandler

Everything about the man is a mystery: The massive ranch in the remote Black Hills of Wyoming that nobody ever visits, the women who live with him, the secret philanthropies, the private airstrip, the sudden disappearances. And especially the persistent rumors that the man’s wealth comes from killing people. Joe Pickett, still officially a game warden but now mostly a troubleshooter for the governor, is assigned to find out what the truth is, but he discovers a lot more than he’d bargained for. There are two other men living up at that ranch. One is a stone-cold killer who takes an instant dislike to Joe. The other is new - but Joe knows him all too well. The first man doesn’t frighten Joe. The second is another story entirely.

Game Warden Extra Special

This is another great story about extraordinary people. These are character that come to life on the page. So good. Enjoy!!

Stone Cold

Great book to read. the story telling made it clear and easy to follow. Grrat!!!

Great story.

Great story. For the most part quite realist. The ending was a little too fast.

Joe Picket battles giant conspiracy

Pretty solid Joe Pickett novel and worth reading. Box returns to his themes about the exploitation of the Western wilderness, with decent Everymans and wily mountain men standing against the wealthy exploiters. Throw in a corrupt but sympathetic game warden colleague and a Governor who would be at home ruling Louisiana, and you have a good read. Daughter Sheridan is also back, as RA on a floor in college that has a trenchcoat-wearing anti-social weirdo who attracts concern. While the plot and characterization are as tight as readers expect from Box, the overall conspiracy behind the villans was a little harder to believe than normal. That doesn't mar the enjoyment, though.

Reader does the usual competent job.

Excellent of course!

The writing of CJBox is amazing. I always see a country full of wonder when he describes Wyoming. The land is as much a character as Joe, or Nate. Nate actually is a part of the wilderness and wild that is the landscape. There are bad people, easily corrupted. But Joe always finds them and usually they get retribution. Totally love the narrator

Good Book

All of the CJ Box books that I have read so far have been good. I like to read series books in order but for a series this long I don't. I grab one whenever I see a CJ Box bargain. So far, I have not had trouble not knowing some history. Each can work as a stand alone. Chandler is among the best narrators. When he does a voice you know who it is without a description like "Nate said". I'll buy these books every time I see a bargain.

Great Book.

Seemed to fly through this book. I liked it.
Always keeps you thinking , What's ahead.

Another great story by C.J. Box

The story just continues the great parade of Joe Pickett novels coming from Mr. Box!

Fairly Good Story

The story was fairly good but the endings of the books get more and more unbelievable as the series goes on.

This book surprise me a little more than the others. I am still a big Joe Pickett fan.

I’m glad Nate showed his loyalties remain true to Joe. I did t like how the book ended with the young man.
