Walt Longmire

review 1: This book isn't set too long after the last one, with some repurcussions from those events still effecting things. Walt and company are back in Wyoming at least, where they belong. The discovery of a body leads almost immediately to a run in with a wild man who becomes a suspect, natrually enough.But as the investigation continues, links turn up to Walt's time in Viet Nam. The book focuses mostly on the present day case, but there are several flashbacks to Walt's service time.I enjoyed the detail in this book, as I do in all the ones in this series. Johnson does some impressive research, but I admit that occasionally the passages in Crow, Cheyenne, Vietnamese, and French can be a bit frustrating. Walt and all the crew are in fine form, and some of the complications fr... moreom the last book are amusing to the reader, if not to poor Sheriff Longmire. This is a great series of modern westerns with elements of both mystery and mysticism. I very much enjoy them, and recommend them to fans of any of the above.While there are significant differences from the tv show, I think fans of it (which I am) will be able to enjoy the novels.
review 2: It's done, it's official, I'm totally and forever hooked on Walt Longmire's mysteries.Another man's moccassins is another great book about Walt Longmire, and it's focus mainly on his past this time.I quite like the way in which the book is divided, with Walt in Absaroka, and Walt in Vietnam.The investigation is really interesting, and I didn't guess how it would end, either in Vietnam and in Wyoming.I absolutely love the frienship between Walt and Henry and I was moved when I had read the chapter in which Henry tells Walt that he may not survive the war.I also like how Craig Johnson unveil, in each book, a bit more about Lucian.His memory of his imprisonment in a Japan camp during the world war II is gripping, even more as he is telling it to Walt in a matter of fact tone.I like a lot how Vic is teasing Walt in this book.The new character, Virgil, is fascinating, and I'm looking forward hearing from him in the next books.The moment we realised that Virgil can't stay alone in a room is extremely sad.At last, I love how, with scarce wording, Craig Johnson expressed some important event, like "god" when Walt reads Virgil's file, and "Oh Sancho no" at one moment. less
