I never read anything placed in Wyoming and the premise was far from what I usually seem to read. Read this book. The sense of place and character development are wonderful. I look forward to future books by Mr. Box." - Ellen Garbuny - RAM "Great first novel. Joe Pickett is a game warden in Wyoming and becomes embroiled in the politics of the consequences of "Endangered Species". The story is homey and slow to begin and develop, but ends off with quite exciting wallops. It is a very good first novel. It is very easy for stories with themes on "political" or "agenda" items to get somewhat preachy and taking sides. Though there seemed to be a slant to one side of the issue in this case, it did not get preachy. The focus stayed on what happens to Joe and his family. This is a really good read." - Jeff Kreider - RAM
