Though it goes against his better judgment, Navajo tribal police lieutenant Joe Leaphorn cannot help but suspect the hand of a supernatural killer.

Joe Pickett is the new game warden in Twelve Sleep, Wyoming, a town where nearly everyone hunts and the game warden—especially one like Joe who won't take bribes or look the other way—is far from popular. When he finds a local hunting outfitter dead, splayed out on the woodpile behind his state-owned home, he takes it personally. There had to be a reason that the outfitter, with whom he's had run-ins before, chose his backyard, his woodpile to die in.

Dancehall of the Dead
Hillerman is an easy read and has a pleasant way he approaches his characters. This is the first book I have listened to but have read 6 or 7 and they are just as good anyway you take them. I would like to see more audibles done as I don't mind listening over and over. I highly recommend him to anyone who enjoys a good wholesome story with intrigue and down to earth approaches.

More Tony Hillerman
Tony Hillerman weaves together the complexities of Navajo metaphysics and murder mystery with great skill and produces a fascinating story of a different world. The character ofJoe Leaphorn is so well defined that he almost seems like a friend.
I have read all of Hillerman's books, and it is a great pleasure to now listen to them on audible. Well written and well read. The perfect combination. My only complaint - that all the rest of the Joe Leaphorn/Jim Chee books are not yet available on audible.

Another great Tony Hillerman
Almost no point in writing it, because as everybody well knows, Tony Hillerman wrote nothing but very particular, convincing and wonderfully rich stories filled with atmosphere, culture, respect and humanism intertwined with interesting crime stories. I read them all some years back in the right order, and was so fascinated by his magical description and love of the landscape and it's people that I later traveled from Europe to visit the area. It is just as remarkable and beautifully, overwelming and strange as he described it. I got this book for free at Audible, and thought I should revisit. Still great. But it desereves a higher quality of the sound and even the performance could perhaps benefit from a little less rumbling drama. Do not let that discourage you, though. It is well worth your time. And if you never have read or listened to this series of stories, you are in for a unequally great time. My suggestion, though, start with the first book, and read/listen in order.

good story!
What did you love best about Dance Hall of the Dead?
I liked the authenticity of its depiction of reservation life. I am partial to Tony Hillerman novels for that, and I like her characters. The archaeological references were a plus, too.
What three words best describe Michael Ansara’s performance?
Good narrator, mostly. He's not so great at female voices, but that's only to be expected. What can I say?

Strugglec
I am disappointed with this purchase. Cost too high, short read and performance was lacking. Doubt if Hillerman will make my list in the future.

would have given 5 stars except for narrator
I've read and listens to many of Tony hillerman's books. while Michael Ansara is an experienced actor his narration of this book was dreadful. George Guidall who narrates other Hillerman books is much better and easy to listen to.
