"You don't have to be a fan of Longmire , the hit Netflix series, to appreciate this clever tale." -- Publishers Weekly "This ghost story is a great tale with enough twists and turns to make it a fun read. A reader new to the series can dive into the Longmire world immediately and will likely want to go back and read all of its previous entries." -- Deseret News "Just a pure story that would be right at home being told around a campfire: immediately engaging, filled with turns and surprises, with an ending that comes too soon."-- The Gazette Praise for Dry Bones "Fast-paced [and] entertaining." -- The Denver Post "An especially good tale . . . If you are not familiar with Longmire, you might want to meet him. If you know him, don't miss his latest case." -- Charleston Post & Courier "Yet another classic Craig Johnson mystery." -- Deseret News "The [Longmire] series continues to be fresh and innovative. . . . Devoted series fans won't feel a sense of dj vu in Dry Bones , but they will easily identify Johnson's tendency toward innovative imagery . . . crack dialogue, humor and a strong sense of place. Absaroka's maker brings dem bones to life, and readers are sure to rejoice." -- Shelf Awareness "[Walt Longmire] remains tough, smart, honest, and capable of entertaining fans with another difficult, dangerous case." -- Kirkus Reviews "[Longmire] never disappoints the reader: he's a hero through thick and thin." -- Publishers Weekly Praise for Craig Johnson and the Walt Longmire Mystery Series "It's the scenery--and the big guy standing in front of the scenery--that keeps us coming back to Craig Johnson's lean and leathery mysteries." -- The New York Times Book Review "Johnson's hero only gets better--both at solving cases and at hooking readers--with age." -- Publishers Weekly "Like the greatest crime novelists, Johnson is a student of human nature. Walt Longmire is strong but fallible, a man whose devil-may-care stoicism masks a heightened sensitivity to the horrors he's witnessed." -- Los Angeles Times "Johnson's trademarks [are] great characters, witty banter, serious sleuthing, and a love of Wyoming bigger than a stack of derelict cars." -- The Boston Globe "The characters talk straight from the hip and the Wyoming landscape is its own kind of eloquence." -- The New York Times "[Walt Longmire] is an easy man to like. . . . Johnson evokes the rugged landscape with reverential prose, lending a heady atmosphere to his story." -- The Philadelphia Inquirer "Stepping into Walt's world is like slipping on a favorite pair of slippers, and it's where those slippers lead that provides a thrill. Johnson pens a series that should become a 'must' read, so curl up, get comfortable, and enjoy the ride." -- The Denver Post "Johnson's pacing is tight and his dialogue snaps." -- Entertainment Weekly From the Hardcover edition., "You don't have to be a fan of Longmire , the hit Netflix series, to appreciate this clever tale." -- Publishers Weekly "This ghost story is a great tale with enough twists and turns to make it a fun read.
