Wm Kent Krueger is the author of the Cork O’Connor murder mysteries set in a fictitious northern MN BWCA.

Once you start reading the series you won’t be able to put it down.
Most local libraries carry this author or can order the books through inter library loan.

He is a very engaging speaker, a normal guy
Here is a link to his tour and it’s not just Minnesota!

For the last 10-15 years I've brought one of his books with on our annual trip. Last Oct he was at the library here in Red Wing and got his latest book autographed. My wife started reading his series with Cork O'Conner and now she's hooked on them more than I am.

Big fan. I just read the latest Cork O’Connor on my family vacation and it was a treat. Thanks for the heads up, Mocha.

He also does a BWCA trip with Wilderness Inquiry. Saw it advertised on Facebook this week.

I've read a few of his books and really enjoyed them. I have another I haven't gotten to, but my issue is that - unlike, say John McDonald's Travis McGee series, there is never a list of his books IN ORDER ..... Where can I find that, without looking up publication dates on each title? I feel like I should read them at least somewhat in order.

You bet! I love MN authors. Just found out another of my favorites, Allen Eakins, is going to be in new ulm March 27 at the Lykke book store. Thankfully it’s at 530 so I can get home before dark
