Search - Persuader (Jack Reacher, Bk 7)

I keep coming back to Lee Child's books. They start fast (The first line in this book is "The cop climbed out of his car exactly four minutes before he got shot.") They have plenty of dropped clues. They feature a larger than life main character. And they tie up nicely in climaxes with plenty of twists. At times a little formulaic, often somewhat farfetched, yet each book draws me in.

3.5 stars out of 5

The best thriller writer. Jack Reacher and his need for justice a great read.

Reacher. Can't say enough about the character. Keeps me turning pages so fast I forget to take a break. In this one, He goes undercover for the DEA to help them out with a little 'off the books' mission. That clock in his head - I sure could use!! Can't wait to read the next one. Even if you don't read them in order, you will have a great read.

Typcial book from this author. Keeps you interested with the plot and enough action.

I have been reading all the Jack Reacher books in order, and this one is my favorite one yet. Within the first two chapters, I was pulled in. I think Child's writing style is excellent in this book. His use of first person is what did it for me. It's like I was watching this tale unfold from inside Reacher's head. It was just more enjoyable to read instead of the usual Reacher said this, Reacher did that, format that I was used to. I hope Child continues with the first person account. Looking forward to starting book 8 and will continue to read whatever Lee Child writes.

another great Reacher novel!
