"Fast-paced [and] entertaining....Johnson, as usual, offers colorful glimpses of Wyoming history and its physical features. Johnson is able to make the landscape itself at least as fascinating as the slightly off-kilter, and sometimes murderous, folks that inhabit Walt's universe." --Denver Post "The [Longmire] series continues to be fresh and innovative. In Dry Bones , Johnson accomplishes this through a 'sixty-five-million-year-old cold case' with current social and political implications, as well as via vibrantly complex characters. Devoted series fans won't feel a sense of déjà vu in Dry Bones , but they will easily identify Johnson's tendency toward innovative imagery ('my brain felt like it was bouncing around like a sneaker inside a washing machine'), 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 Longmire 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 "Sometimes funny, sometimes touching, and always entertaining, Wait for Signs is a complete delight." -- ShelfAwareness "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.

Parker "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 "A winning piece of work...There''s a convincing feel to the whole package: a sense that you''re viewing this territory through the eyes of someone who knows it as adoring lover and skeptical onlooker at the same time."-- The Washington Post "Johnson''s pacing is tight and his dialogue snaps."-- Entertainment Weekly "Truly great. Reading Craig Johnson is a treat. . . . [He] tells great stories, casts wonderful characters and writes in a style that compels the reader forward."-- Wyoming Tribune Eagle, Praise for Craig Johnson and the Longmire 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 "Sometimes funny, sometimes touching, and always entertaining, Wait for Signs is a complete delight." -- ShelfAwareness "Like the greatest crime novelists, Johnson is a student of human nature.
