Public Radio Tulsa | By Rich Fisher
Published September 25, 2019 at 1:26 PM CDT
Aired on Wednesday, September 25th.

Our gust is Craig Johnson, author of the beloved and best-selling "Longmire" series of mystery novels. His newest book, "Land of Wolves," is the 15th novel to feature the Wyoming-based protagonist, Sheriff Walt Longmire. (These novels are also the basis, of course, for a popular TV series on Netflix.) Mr. Johnson will appear at a ticketed reading/signing event here in Tulsa on Thursday the 26th at the IDL Ballroom. The evening is presented by Magic City Books / Book Smart Tulsa, and more info (inlcuding how to get tickets) is posted here.
