Junkyard Dogs

A Walt Longmire Mystery

De: Craig Johnson

Narrado por: George Guidall

Craig Johnson’s rough-and-tumble hero Walt Longmire is quickly becoming a fan-favorite and a critical success.

Here Walt has his hands full as greedy land developers employ shady, violent methods to reverse their fortunes in recession-racked Wyoming, where the owners of a multi-million dollar development of ranchettes want to get rid of the adjacent junk-yard. When a severed thumb is discovered in the yard, conflicts erupt, and Walt Longmire, his trusty companion Dog, life-long friend Henry Standing Bear, and deputies Santiago Saizarbitoria and Victoria Moretti find themselves in a small town that feels more and more like a high plains pressure cooker.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“It’s the scenery—and the big guy standing in front of the scenery—that keeps us coming back to [these] lean and leathery mysteries.” ( New York Times Book Review)

HE DOES IT AGAIN, ANOTHER MASTERPIECE TO MAKE YOU LAUGH AND WANT MORE; EXCELLENT NARRATOR AND BOOK!

Another good story

Where does Junkyard Dogs rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

In the top 10.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Junkyard Dogs?

When the deputy shot the man whose thumb had been cut off because he was preparing to shoot Walt.

Which scene was your favorite?

The description of Walt trying to stop the wrecker that Gina was driving in order to get away from Walt and/or kill him.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes. I listen to books the way my father and his family listened to the radio when he was a little boy. There is too much trash on TV these days and I can pick what I want to listen too. I do wish that Vic Maretti's mouth was not quite so foul.

Freeeezing...

The Wyoming winter is going full scale with temperatures dropping way below zero, freezing even your breath, burrrr. Walt and the gang are on the case trying to find out who is behind multiple murders that started when Walt an Vic found a huge underground crop of pot plants.

Another great one in the series which is no surprise. Craig Johnson is the best at coming up with fascinating co-characters to support the returning cast. In every book the new characters are so classically authentic, it makes me wonder if they are based on real people he encounters in his life.

A little heads up; the Longmire series on TV dose not follow the plots in any of the books and a few of the main characters are different. Its a good show and I'm so glad it does not ruin any of the books I have not yet read. Narrator George Guidall is Walt Longmire. It would not be the same without him.

Wonderful

All the positive reviews tell all you need to know. I can add nothing more. Craig Johnson may not be as well known as John Grisham, but he shuld be! His books are wonderfully exciting wth real characters (that are not indiscriminantly jumping into bed all the time). And George Guidall is just the best narrator for this author. The combination is unbeatable.

Junk Yard Gold

What a great read, well story, then. The dry wit, humor, action, n human interest, along with compassion, empathy, and just the right amount of morbid murder details, amid Western old world all around wonderfulness. Craig Johnson is a magician!
