Series ✦ Penny’s Take 🎧 Audiobook
Kindness Goes Unpunished (Longmire Mysteries)
Craig Johnson · 2007
🎙 Narrated by George Guidall
72/100
👍 Worth It
George Guidall is a veteran, award-recognized narrator, and this Longmire installment delivers a solid mystery with real character depth as Walt navigates Philadelphia and an old friend's trouble. Just know it's strictly adult listening - there's an assault and a murder investigation woven through - but for series fans it's worth the time and the narration should hold up well.
✦ Penny’s Take — this is The Review Group’s own editorial assessment. Penny’s analytical review line researched this book from real sources and scored it across the lenses shown below. It’s an honest first-party read — not a page-by-page personal one. The gold ✓ Penny Tested mark is reserved for books Penny reads cover to cover herself.
⚠ Parent note — our reviewers flagged: Violence - contains an assault on a main character and a homicide investigation, plus likely coarse language typical of the genre; adult content, not suitable for children.. We still scored it 72; these are context for your family, not an automatic skip.
