shcleveland's review against another edition
3.0
I have mixed feelings about this book. Like many other reviews, I saw the TV show long before picking up the book. To be honest, I think this is definitely one of those times the TV adapters got it right in the sense that they told a better story and gave us better characters. Walt Longmire of the books isn't a particularly good sheriff, and I don't think he's even a particularly good person. His character arc also feels... non-existent. He seems to wind up right back where he started... attempting to drink himself to death, this time with a dog.
Minor: Ableism, Suicide, Sexual assault, Racism, Injury/Injury detail, Alcoholism, Violence, and Sexual violence
