A page turner. Yes, some have complained about the deaths and violence, I feel it is appropriate for this fictional story. Joe Pickett is a good character.

This is a later installment in an ongoing series and interesting enough to motivate me to go back to the origin story in the first book. The protagonist, Joel Pickett, is a game warden and the author does a great job weaving interesting…

It had been a long time since I had read any of Box's books. I remember reading some of his earlier works and just realized how much I missed keeping up with his works. If you want to read about a family man with an excellent character…

Enough about the rotten government, let's get back to nature and Pickett's true job as game warden. I was really hoping for a "good" wolf story here. The twist was unexpected because of the title. However, as always, Box does a good job…

I have loved the other Joe Pickett books that I've read, loved the plots and couldn't put the books down, but this one was way, way too bloody, gruesome (human and animal mutilations) and flat out creepy. Mr. Box, you really missed the…

I enjoyed this book. CJ Box does not shy away from violence and the aftermath. I always learn something new about the state and governments misguided efforts to enforce the law, and the hypocritical way they use the pond scum they do catch…

The most violent and bloody the series yet. Bad language in the series is growing as well. IMHO Mr Box can write a very intriguing novel, but the nastiness really isn’t needed to this level. Stay with the story and ease back on the…

This is the 19th book in the terrific series about Wyoming Game Warden Joe Pickett, his family, and his good friend, falconer Nate Romanowski (who is a fascinating character). While you might not think a series about a game warden would…

I love the Joe Pickett/Nate Romanowski characters. This one had almost non-stop action throughout the book, without going too far over the edge of being just death and destruction. I think this was one of my favorite C.J. Box books yet.

I always like CJ Box's series with Joe Pickett, but this one felt a bit rushed, formulaic and not quite up to the level of other books in the series. I hope this isn't the one that jumped the shark. Hopefully the series will get back to…

Whew! What a book!! This novel's murderous wolf pack is two-legged kind. Joe finds himself in the most violent and dangerous predicament he’s ever faced. I don't want to write anything that would give the plot of this book away so I'll…

I have been reading Joe Pickett novels since 2001. This one, the latest, started out like pieces of a jig saw puzzle that I wouldn't make much sense of because there's no up front picture to guide my reading. Then I got the great idea…

4 stars. IC. J. Box is one of my favourite authors and I love his Joe Pickett series. This book was #19 in the series and was a good read. Wyoming Game Warden Joe has his job back and he and his family have moved into a new home. A…

C.J. Box knows his characters and their environment, and shows it in this novel. Almost everyone is there at one point or another from, from Joe's ex mother-in-law, to FBI's Coon. And the environment is there, too, from the muddy to the…
