- weasts5Another awesome readI’ve been a fan of Lee Child’s Jack Reacher since I picked up the first book, now that his brother is taking over for him you really can’t tell that it is another author. This book did start out a little slow but then you get sucked into it and you forget how it started. This was a page turner and the conclusion was pure Reacher. I’m glad they only put out one book a year, it makes me excited for the year to pass so I can read the next book . I highly recommend everyone read this book and leave a review.
- G HenryGood!It was somehow less satisfying than other Reacher books. The plot I found a bit convoluted and like the previous one I read, just not as great as the series was. Interesting and entertaining, but missing something.
- Jim MigasWell, HECK!I’m a big Lee Child/Reacher fan. I’ve read all in the series at least once. Untold happy hours. When Amazon told me another would be published I immediately “pre ordered” a copy. I put the release date on my calendar. When I got the mail that it was waiting on my porch, I responded that the delivery was “thoughtful” (whatever THAT means!). After I figured out how to tear apart the “single book box” from Amazon, I immediately read the jacket blurb. Sounded good. The actual text started out well: short, declarative statements. Efficient. Effective. Frugal with verbs. Soon, our favorite Knight Errant was doing his thing: saves an elderly couple, beats up the perpetrators. Comfortable. Familiar. Promising.
Things began to slip. The characters became caricatures. The bad guys said the stuff bad guys usually say. The good guys spoke according to form. The somewhat bumbling yet likeable sidekick becomes competent. The ‘hard bitten once wronged’ ex-military show their mettle. Shades of Central Casting. Strangely, I kept being reminded of the Roger Moore “James Bond” films. Shallow. Predictable. Heck, one bad guy even lives in a hidden fortress!
The good news is that it IS a Reacher book. I hear that there are some Roger Moore/Bond fans, but I much prefer Sean Connery. Likewise, I miss the “old” Jack ‘N.M.N’ Reacher. - Amazon CustomerFreedom to Be Whatever You Desire to BeLee Child and now with his brother continue the wonderful and amazing journey Reacher takes hold again of our imagination and minds!
Another great novel of a fictional yet real to those who hold similar values and free spirits!
A Must read to enjoy the ongoing travels of knowing that freedom is always there to all who choose to remember....it our unlimited, infinite and eternal gift of free will to know again we are born free to become and be whatever we desire to be!
Enjoy and share this wonderful book of adventure into feeling the true power within our soul and spirit! - Terry WeynaGreat plot!Jack Reacher's 30th outing has a nice, twisty plot that keeps the reader turning the pages late into the night (or early into the morning, as was my experience). There are a couple of interesting characters I wish had been fleshed out more, and there isn't much in the way of setting, but those are more quibbles in this context; the Reacher novels are all about plot.
My only major complaint is one I've felt for the last few of the novels in this long-running series: Reacher seems to be more violent, with less compunction, than ever before. Granted, the people he kills or completely disables (though it's usually "kills") are bad guys, but Reacher acting as judge, jury and executioner is a bit much, especially when the body count is so high. Reacher otherwise seems to have a pretty strong moral code, so it seems odd that he never reflects on the taking of a life. This won't stop me from reading new Reacher novels as they come along, but it is disturbing. - David E Benincosaeasy read. Take your time and enjoy this bookI enjoyed this book. I've read all Reacher books and this one has the same action as the rest of his books. Great reading. Hard to put down book once I started reading it
- Matt Ginsbergterrible, without a plot or climaxThis book is awful. Clearly, Lee has handed the reins to Andrew, and Andrew has no idea what to do with them.
There is no plot. Just an endless series of bad guys. Sometimes they turn into good guys. Sometimes Reacher kills them. Could go either way.
There is no climax. The last few bad guys Reacher has to kill because they fail to reform. But that's pretty much as exciting as it gets.
And the book is just *boring*. Used to be, I'd want to keep reading. I'd stay up late today to do it. With this one, I switched my Kindle from "minutes left in chapter" to "minutes left in book" so that I'd know how much more misery I'd need to endure.
Sometimes, a bad book holds out hope that it might get better. With this one, it was clear from early on that that wasn't going to happen. I should have realized that my $15 was spent money and that reading the whole book wasn't going to get that money back. It was just going to throw good time after bad money.
I used to get all the Reacher books autodelivered when they came out. I'm turning that off today.
