These are just so much fun and thought provoking too.

C.J. (Cracker Jack?) Box delivers his second Joe Pickett novel in this 2002 publication and follows up on his first with some TASTY environmental thriller action.

For those readers who don’t know yet about the coolest thing this side of the Pecos, Box’s protagonist Pickett is a Wyoming game warden – patrolling the vast wide open spaces and confronting heavily armed perpetrators and wild critters alike. All on a shoestring budget with a small family to support. Box makes home life interesting by crafting Joe’s missus as a strong willed and independent minded woman but centered on family and has his daughters as head strong as their momma.

This time around we meet up with some environmental terrorists who wind up sideways of some equally destructive right wing ranchers. Actually, Box demonstrates what a great writer he is by connecting the dots and showing how either side of the extremist spectrum can be bad for the environment, while also showing that ironically both sides love the outdoors. In an impressively illustrative scene, Box shows us how complicated environmental issues can be. Mix in some historical precedents and this is a winner.

Box also explores a theme about which I am passionate. A hunter is someone who tracks and kills his prey and then harvests the meat and feeds his family. I have many friends and family who are hunters. A person who uses a high powered rifle to kill and then only takes a trophy is not a hunter – this person is an asshole. Box’s Pickett finds one of these and fights the good fight.

I’m going to read all of these.

Joe Pickett is a family man and one of the few Game Wardens in Wyoming, he has a steady moral compass and is an intellegent, lawful man. In this second addition to the series Joe gets wrapped up in an environmental feud. After radicals set off an explosion in the deep woods, an investigation reveals that a cow and possibly two people were accidentally killed. Joe knows that there is more to it than that and goes back later to look into it further. When he is shot at with a long range rifle he

I really enjoyed this second book in the Joe Pickett series. I think the author does a great job describing the countryside, mountains and wildlife in the Wyoming area. I especially liked when he was talking about the elk moving through the woods, followed by the wolves looking for a calf or straggler. Really fun.

Although this series is growing on me, I wish Joe didn't make me think of Barney Fife. I think even his own daughter would be able to get the drop on him and take his weapon. The plot was really interesting, some good characters and some good historical comparisons. The negatives are that Joe seems to stumble upon clues and let's people get the drop on him.

Savage Run perhaps is not as good as the first book. It is still a very satisfying thriller in the Joe Pickett series.Joe Pickett is a Wyoming game ward charged with overseeing the Big Horn Mountains in the northern part of the state. Mary Beth, Joe's wife, is a beautiful woman. As their 10 year daughter, Sheridan, observes of her mother: "Mom, you're a hottie." Mary Beth, went to college to become a lawyer. But she fell in love with Joe and they live the austere life on game warden's wages.

The second of the charming game warden Joe Pickett series finds Joe again in Wyoming's Bighorn mountain range. A famous ecoterrorist, out peacefully spiking trees with his bride of three days, is killed by an exploding cow. Joe is drawn into this crime and must meet with the cow's owner, who seems complacent about the deaths on his ranch land. Joe wants to know why this bizarre circumstance of facts doesn't phase the jerk.Marybeth, Joe's wife, begins receiving phone calls from an old high school

JOE PICKETT, YES YES YES.I'm so excited that I'm still early in this series because I know that I still have a ton of these books to look forward to. I'm such a Pickett fangirl, even after only two books. I hope he stays as cool as he is now.Joe Pickett is a Wyoming game warden, not super experienced, with a slowly growing reputation in his area. He's known for being inaccurate with his gun and for being a stickler for the rules. He doesn't do drama, he doesn't have baggage, he loves his family,

This was the second C.J. Box book I've read and it won't be the last. I love his main character Joe Pickett. There were some slow moments in this book and some of the scenes seemed to drag on a bit but overall it was a fun and interesting read. There were a few surprises I didn't see coming, too, which is always a plus. I love the way Box describes the Wyoming country. Makes me want to live there.
