The second Longmire adventure maintains the first's loose charm. These really are the kind of characters you love to check in with once a year. Craig Johnson's got a winner of a series here. My only real complaint is that Johnson, like Stephen King, the world's worse offender, has a bad habit of giving many of his characters the same voice. Especially the women who are, to a one, sassy. It's not a deal breaker, but it does tend to irritate the farther along a series goes.
