Canyonland Carnage by Scott Graham is in my opinion the best so far in the Series about Chuck Bender and the National Parks Mysteries。 I love the historical and archeology bits in these books and this story about how to use water in the rivers is great。 The setting with an assembly of people from both sides on a river raft journey is superb。 To my surprise！ Then there is murder and Chuck has to do what he has done before。 Get to the bottom？ With it。 I must thank @this_is_edelweiss @torreyhousepr Canyonland Carnage by Scott Graham is in my opinion the best so far in the Series about Chuck Bender and the National Parks Mysteries。 I love the historical and archeology bits in these books and this story about how to use water in the rivers is great。 The setting with an assembly of people from both sides on a river raft journey is superb。 To my surprise！ Then there is murder and Chuck has to do what he has done before。 Get to the bottom？ With it。 I must thank @this_is_edelweiss @torreyhousepress for giving me an advance copy and @sgrahamauthor for writing it。 。。。more

I do love Scott Graham's series starring Chuck Bender， an archaeologist and all-around outdoorsman。 This one takes place in the Canyonlands National Park。 In it， Chuck is the naturalist on a river rafting trip designed to bring some sort of common understanding about water rights in the West。 He handles the gear boat during the day and gives mini lectures in the evening。 The book deals well with both the history of Western water diversion and the issues related to water rights that are a very cu I do love Scott Graham's series starring Chuck Bender， an archaeologist and all-around outdoorsman。 This one takes place in the Canyonlands National Park。 In it， Chuck is the naturalist on a river rafting trip designed to bring some sort of common understanding about water rights in the West。 He handles the gear boat during the day and gives mini lectures in the evening。 The book deals well with both the history of Western water diversion and the issues related to water rights that are a very current part of Western politics。 The discussion of these issues in the book is a bit didactic， taking the reader out of the action of the story， but it's such a fascinating topic that I didn't mind。The action in the book is thrilling， and some of Graham's best writing takes place as he describes the danger of running the rapids。 He also describes some of the most remote parts of Canyonlands （in and around the Maze） very well， giving those of us who will never get there in person a glimpse of their beauty and spirit。 The book includes sabotage and murder and， while you may have an inkling of the perpetrator before they are revealed， it does all make sense。 The resolution is brought about too quickly for my taste， with such an expedient confession seeming rather unlikely。 I did especially like that Chuck's family is directly involved in the plot， even if their involvement seemed a bit unlikely as well。All in all， this is not a perfect book， but its combination of a timely topic， thrilling action， and gorgeous scenery made it a good read。 There's another one of the series in the works， too， which is a very happy occurrence。 I'll be looking forward to it！ 。。。more
