The lack of dialog tags really made this difficult to read. I think I prefer the Longmire in the TV show.

An excellent read, and so much better than the TV series on which the book is based.
Well told story, and accurate, realistic characters who speak in a wholly believable, realistic manner. What a true treat to find this first book in a series.
I'm looking forward to spending some time in Absaroka County this summer.

Walt Longmire is just wanting to finish out his term as sheriff of Wyoming's Absaroka county in peace and quiet. That of course does not happen. Young Cody Pritchard is found shot and dumped in with a local farmer's sheep.
Don't feel bad for Cody though, he and his buddies violently raped a young Cheyenne girl. They got suspended sentences.
Now someone is seeking justice for that crime.
Walt Longmire is that type of character that grabs my fickle attention. Overweight, depressed, likes drinking. Sign me up! He lost his wife 4 years previously and has not recovered from her death yet, he does have the inner sense of good and that makes this book shine.
The cast of characters that join in the story are also some of the best.
You have Henry Standing Bear
I could feel his disapproving glance as we crossed a cattle guard and momentarily became airborne. We made for the washboard curve that lay ahead, and he braced himself. "Hey, I thought you guys always thought it was a good day to die."
"Attributed to Crazy Horse who was often misquoted."
Deputy Vic Moretti
"You think I'm too butch?:
"No, I don't, and I really was thinking what a good-looking woman you are."
The eye closed, but the smile returned. "Good."
"Then you opened your mouth..."
I was entertained enough that I might just turn my Netflix back on because I've never seen the show that was developed from this book and now I'm curious.
