Another great book, not quite as good as Killing Floor for me but still brilliant! Reacher is quickly becoming a new favourite

Jack Reacher as you expect him. And, once again, his size is a big part of the story--making me question once again how Tom Cruise ever got the part in the movies!

I love the Reacher books. I don't like American mass market media, particularly TV. But, when I'm I reading about Jack's adventures, I find myself wanting to know about America, not the America you see on the screen, the real America. I find myself looking on Google Maps and Wikipedia to find out more about the places that Jack visits. I never get the urge to visit the USA unless I've just read Lee Child!
This installment of Reacher is expected fayre, you get what you want. A page-turner, but a bit rushed towards the end, you realise that how the baddies will meet their end, but it felt a bit laboured, a bit deus ex-machina.
Cheers

After thinking I might be done with this series after book #1, I dove more into it because I love the Amazon Prime show…and God help me, I love Jack Reacher books now
I jumped way ahead from book 2 to this one because they don’t really follow each other in a series besides a mention or two (at most) to the original book, and I want to watch season 2 of Reacher and wanted to read this first, as Season 2 is based on this book.
I really enjoyed it. A great book bringing together the former Special Investigators and the ending was quite satisfying. I hope Child brings back the team in future stories, as it was fun reading them interact. Especially O Donnell who’s hilarious.
Can’t wait to read more Reacher books. I’m officially a middle aged man saying that I guess

One of the better Reacher novels, he gets back together with some old teammates and wreaks havoc on the bad guys. etc etc. A fun ride.
