High Noon indeed. This episode started slow, but made it to a big-bang finish, with no one willing to believe in our hero anywhere along the way. Looking suspicious through most of the episode, Longmire is so determined to bring Jacob Nighthorse (A Martinez) down for Branch’s murder (as well as Martha’s) that he seems…
It’s oh-dark-thirty and Walt Longmire (Robert Taylor) is still at the crime scene where his deputy Branch Connolly’s body was found lying in the creek. He’s discovered some dirt inside the shell that came from Branch’s gun and since it’s impossible that Branch ejected the spent shell after killing himself, he takes soil samples from…
This Longmire fan has been long-suffering while waiting for the return of Walt Longmire and his Wyoming posse, and “Down by the River” was a helluva great way to start the show’s fourth season. Longmire (Robert Taylor), standing with a shotgun on a secluded runway, is determined to murder Jacob Nighthorse (A Martinez) in cold…

Goodbye, TV Walt, and hello Book Walt! While you wait to find out if Longmire's Season 3 has been greenlit (we vote Yep—see our coverage of the TV series episodes here), we're giving you a chance to win the entire 9-book Walt Longmire series by Craig Johnson, including: The Cold Dish, Kindness Goes Unpunished, Death…
A Serpent’s Tooth by Craig Johnson is the ninth Walt Longmire western mystery (available June 4, 2013). It’s hard to review a book nine books into a beloved series, especially when you know a lot of readers will be coming to the book with a background from an equally beloved television version. A&E’s Longmire is…
It’s no surprise that A&E’s new modern western lawman show is fetching comparisons to that other western lawman show, FX’s wildly successful Justified. But watching the premiere episode, there were moments when our hero, Sheriff Walt Longmire, reminded me—rather unexpectedly—of another TV leading man entirely: Tony Soprano. I know, I know. What would a Wyoming…
If you’ve followed our previous coverage, then you know how excited we are for the premiere of Longmire at 10 pm Sunday night on A&E. We got a sneak peek at the pilot and think that show runners John Coveny and Hunt Baldwin nailed the spirit of Craig Johnson’s bestselling novels right down to the…
This Sunday, June 3rd, the first of ten episodes of Longmire will debut on A&E at 10pm EDT, and I’m just hoping I can watch it. Having your books turned into a television series is pretty weird, and the only way I can describe the experience is that it’s something like having a houseplant in…
