Download Cold Wind Audiobook

" Follow up to nowhere to run. Don't think we've heard the last of Joe Pickett & Nate Romanowski. Interesting info on wind generation and the controversy regarding renewable energy "

" How can a C. J. Box Joe Pickett book be anything but good? If you like a mystery set in Idaho (my home state) that includes the great outdoors, great pacing, good characters, a jaw-dropping climax and a cliffhanger that will have me running to the bookstore when the next one comes out, then try C. J. Box. But go back to the beginning and read them all...you won't want to miss a thing.... "

" Quick Read. It was a good set up to what's happening next to Joe and Nate! "

" I liked it because I'm familiar with the setting. I intend to follow up on the Joe Pickett series. "

" I am a big fan of the Joe Pickett series, and this one held my attention as well. My one beef about the series is that there seems to be some political posturing taking place through the plot. This one involves wind power and the misguided governmental policies that allow it to be misused to the common man's detriment. Of course there is a murder, and Joe's least favorite mother-in-law is the suspect. The mystery itself was very readable; I'm just struggling a bit with the politics. "

" A game warden named Joe who spends more time not doing his job. Interesting. Not having read the preceding ten other mysteries in the series I thought the Nate character living in the cave a distraction. But eventually Nate's lifestyle synchronizes with the murder plot around Joe's mother-in-law. At the same time I started reading this book there was an article in the news about a house in Cheyenne that is the address of corporations numbering in the thousands. That issue comes up in this book with the wind companies and the turbines. Joe's wife works as a librarian part time. His oldest daughter has gone off to college. This book ends with Nate realizing that a group known as "The Five" are still after him. Joe's a stand up guy, Wyoming is a beautiful state, and Box writes a page turning book, but I'm still undecided if I'm going to read more in this series. "

" Decent book. Did not grab me and hold on like I like my books to do. It was slow reading for me, but a good story. I don't regret reading it, but I am not sure I'll read more from this author. Maybe I'll give the next book in the series a shot. "

" I knew the bitch was evil... "

" I shouldn't actually mark this as "read" since I did not finish it. I had the distinct feeling that I had already read this since it seemed so familiar. I think C.J. Box has fallen into the formulaic trap that so many authors seem to succumb to. I gave up on it. "

" I always enjoy CJ Box, but this wasn t his best. "

" Poor joe and his family. This is a great book. "

" I have read most of the books by C.J. Box and he never disappoints me. His mysteries are well-plotted and the pacing is excellent. His character development is terrific. Joe Pickett and his family are central to most books and they continue to grow and change enough to keep interest high. "

" Lots of twists & turns in this one "

" Excellent; Continuing character: Joe Pickett; when his hated mother-in-law is charged with her latest husband's murder, Joe has mixed feelings about helping to prove her innocence; meanwhile, someone's trying to kill Joe's friend Nate "

" I have enjoyed all the books in this series about game warden, Joe Pickett. They just keep getting better and better. This one was especially interesting because it gave interesting information about the many wind farms that are being built to provide electricity. "

" If you are a Joe Pickett fan you will like this one. "

" this book was not very believable and it missed the level of excitement that I have come to expect from C.J. Box. "

" This book was pretty good; I enjoyed the way it ended. "

" Another good installment in the life of Joe Pickett and family. "

" Well wrought suspense and nice twist at the end. My only issue is that it has an epilogue spoiler for the next book with the same character.....takes away from the ending of THIS story. "

" Always glad to see Joe Pickett back. This was an enjoyable story but didn't quite grip me like some of the previous in the series. Still entertaining with a great landscape, Box is an evocative writer that always paints a scene. "

" Perhaps I should have started with an earlier book. Many people raved about this but I found the main character Joe Pickett, a game warden uninteresting, and the storyline did not keep me interested. The accused was unlikeable, and I did not want her to get off. Probably won't pick up another Box. "

" pretty good he did have an agenda though which at least for me was too intrusive i won't read anymore "

" Like David Baldacci. Cliche and predictable. "

" Once again, C.J. Box comes up with an engrossing, stay-up-late reading book out in the hills of Wyoming. Really enjoy this author's books and this one did not disappoint. "

" CD. Good CJ Box tale with a lot of information on wind energy in WY. Brings things with his Mother-in law to a head nicely. Always a good read. "

" The Joe Pickett series is very, very good. I like the action, plus the setting is made a part of the story. "

" Very good book, look forward to more Joe Pickett, and Nate. "

" Love C.J. Box as a different type of mystery writer...a game warden who always ends up involved...setting Wyoming; this time it is the newly installed energy wind mills...opening scene for setting murder scene definitely gets your attention. "

" I really like C.J. Box’s stories about Joe Pike, but COLD WIND wasn’t up to his usual high standards. Usually I breeze right through a Box novel because they are so interesting, it seemed to take a long time to finish this one. "

" Mr. Box gives us an interesting insight to wind power in this novel where his Wyoming game warden seems to be the only person using their brain to solve an especially gruesome murder.

The twists caused by enormous greed make for a very satisfying tale. "

" Although I like Box's stand alone books, I'm not a huge fan of his Joe Pickett novels. I think it's because I just can't relate to his settings - ranches and the woods, mostly. I enjoyed this book, but not one I'd rave about. "

" This author keeps getting better. Excellent book. "

" This Joe Pickett story lumbered along to a double surprise ending. "
