Title: As Grim and Dark as the Title Suggests....
Review: I really enjoyed the first two Joe Pickett novels. The can't shoot straight game warden and his family met up with some interesting characters and great mysteries. But this is NOT a fun read. Joe has gone from being a goofy, all too human guy to being almost a vigilante in just three novels.It held my interest, don't get me wrong, but I read to be entertained and when I finished reading I thought "well that was no fun". Too grim and dark, with the bad guys being almost cartoonishly bad. No one(including me!) seemed to be having a very good time in this book.I hope for the next Pickett novel, CJ Box picks up the mood a bit and gets Joe back into his "goofy good guy" persona. There are enough "tortured hero" characters out there, Joe Pickett doesn't need to become one of them. I want the old Joe back.
