About this listen

Everything about the man is a mystery: The massive ranch in the remote Black Hills of Wyoming that nobody ever visits, the women who live with him, the secret philanthropies, the private airstrip, the sudden disappearances. And especially the persistent rumors that the man’s wealth comes from killing people. Joe Pickett, still officially a game warden but now mostly a troubleshooter for the governor, is assigned to find out what the truth is, but he discovers a lot more than he’d bargained for. There are two other men living up at that ranch. One is a stone-cold killer who takes an instant dislike to Joe. The other is new - but Joe knows him all too well. The first man doesn’t frighten Joe. The second is another story entirely.

Great story.

Great story. For the most part quite realist. The ending was a little too fast.

Joe Picket battles giant conspiracy

Pretty solid Joe Pickett novel and worth reading. Box returns to his themes about the exploitation of the Western wilderness, with decent Everymans and wily mountain men standing against the wealthy exploiters. Throw in a corrupt but sympathetic game warden colleague and a Governor who would be at home ruling Louisiana, and you have a good read. Daughter Sheridan is also back, as RA on a floor in college that has a trenchcoat-wearing anti-social weirdo who attracts concern. While the plot and characterization are as tight as readers expect from Box, the overall conspiracy behind the villans was a little harder to believe than normal. That doesn't mar the enjoyment, though.

Reader does the usual competent job.

Excellent of course!

The writing of CJBox is amazing. I always see a country full of wonder when he describes Wyoming. The land is as much a character as Joe, or Nate. Nate actually is a part of the wilderness and wild that is the landscape. There are bad people, easily corrupted. But Joe always finds them and usually they get retribution. Totally love the narrator

Good Book

All of the CJ Box books that I have read so far have been good. I like to read series books in order but for a series this long I don't. I grab one whenever I see a CJ Box bargain. So far, I have not had trouble not knowing some history. Each can work as a stand alone. Chandler is among the best narrators. When he does a voice you know who it is without a description like "Nate said". I'll buy these books every time I see a bargain.

The edge of destruction

To me CJ Box and his creative mind in telling a story is a leader of the 20th and 21st century mystery writers.
There always are new bad guys with a sprinkling of somewhat good guys. This story features the ultra rich trying to rewrite the rules for society, only to find that people generally cling to certain ways of thinking that aren't self correcting by spreading around cash rewards.
Joe's daughter is featured in this story, along with overzealous thinking exemplified by all players in her first major emergency that is built totally by a series of assumptions

Love C.J. Box's Books

Would you consider the audio edition of Stone Cold to be better than the print version?

It's the same. It's unabridged.

What did you like best about this story?

It is a good book, but it didn't seem to carry the last story forward. Joe Pickett was at a crossroads - especially concerning the overreach of the federal government and state government to a certain extent - but he seemed to digress. Anyway, still a good book.

Which scene was your favorite?

Not one in particular.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

No.
