The third book in this series doesn’t disappoint, it’s even better than the last. This is one of those books that has characters you will despise so much that it drives your reading hoping that they get what’s coming to them. I’ve grown quite attached to Joe and his family, each one playing their roles in the dynamics. My favorite character in this one was mysterious falconer Nate Romanowski. I sure do hope to see him in future books! My only problem with this book is that I wish that I had read...
C.J. Box's Joe Pickett series is great and this installment did not disappoint.
Fantastic! Best one of the series so far.
So I've read a few of these Joe Pickett books and while I find them likable and leaving me a bit nostalgic for parts of my home state of Wyoming, they also leave me with a bit of eye rolling and frustration. For one, each book starts out interesting and plausible, but inevitably "jumps the shark" into the realm of unbelievable. I wouldn't mind this too much, if it weren't for the other thing that has started to irk me a bit. The female characters. I've read four of the books and have yet to be i...
I decided to go meet the author at a Thursday evening event at the Highlands Ranch Library in Douglas County, so I checked out Winterkill on Monday. I only had time to read about half of it before his presentation, but I was hooked. And when I met CJ Box, it was like he just stepped out of his own book - I could tell that he writes his characters and his plots out of what he knows and loves. Box lives in Cheyenne, and his mysteries are set in Wyoming. Main character Joe Pickett is a game warden
When I feel like I might be sliding into a reading slump, I have a couple authors whose books are reliable for a great story. C. J. Box is one of my go-to authors. Winterkill is another great book in the Joe Pickett series (3rd book). The audiobook narration is well done and it was easy to slip into the story. Joe Pickett is a Wyoming game warden assigned to the Bighorn Mountains in the northern part of the state. Joe and his family live in the small town of Saddlestring. This part of Wyoming is...
Still trying to wrap my mind around the fact that April is dead. I was sure they were going to find her after she ran out of the back of the camper or was even taken out of the back. But I was very wrong! Nate is a quiet, contemplative, bad ass! Of course everyone loves him! And I do too. There were some very evil characters in this book, mostly in the side of the good. That just frustrates the hell out of me! A very good book. I think this will stick with me for a while.
This series just keeps getting better and better. I am so attached to Joe Pickett that I have to force myself to read other things; when I finish one, I often just want to move right into the next. It is, however, annoying that there is always a couple of chapters for the next installment in the series immediately following the book I'm reading on my Kindle. I always skip these because I hate to start something that I'm not going to continue right away. Also, I'd rather the book I'm reading be l...
I had hoped this series improved with each new book, but Winterkill was a bust for me. Joe, who seemed like the Barney Fife of game wardens, continues to behave rather stupidly. We kept getting told what a great guy he is but I'd rather be shown. But what we are shown keeps him looking rather pathetic. In the first two books I liked the plots but this book's plot didn't work. The balance of good and bad people was skewed so much to overly cliche bad characters that it was frustrating. It was als...
