Review
Thoroughly entertaining . . . it's good to have some of Reacher's brutal certainties back. ― The Times on THE SENTINEL
The one man revenge machine seems revitalised. Great stuff. ― Sun on THE SENTINEL
The coolest continuing series character. ― Stephen King
Jack Reacher is today's James Bond, a thriller hero we can't get enough of. ― Ken Follett

Maybe it is time REACHER retired. And you find a different direction to go in. Please don't leave him to die by himself, of old age. Leave him with some dignity. As we all remember how he was.
I will take this as an indicator of things to come and I will not purchase or bother to read any future Reacher books.
This was a waste of my $15.99 and I feel cheated and ripped off.
-
Since watching the Reacher movie I've read all the books and usually have had a hard time putting them down. This one was the opposite.
-
I struggled after the first chapter. After perhaps four attempts I got a third of the way through before skipping to the end to see if it was an end worth reading to. For me it wasn't.
-
I usually pre-order the books. I guess this time I'll wait for the reviews.
I won’t be buying another Jack Reacher, I’ll go back to the Jack I know and have enjoyed in previous books.
Better off dead? Yes I agree. Jack Reacher as a character would be.

I have read all the other books in the series and loved them all - but this just doesn’t feel like a Lee Child book, it feels wrong. I’m not sure wether his brother is now the lead writer or they are out of ideas but this is (in my opinion) the worst Reacher book by a mile.
I wish they were more books from when Reacher was still in the MP’s.

Unfortunately, this book and the previous, both by Andrew Child but with Lee’s input have been a disappointment. So much so in this, Better Off Dead, with the incredibly annoying change to first person (why dear god, why!) and Reacher not behaving the same, that at 30% through the book I’m king about giving up.
Mr Child, we the fans did not approve of the great Tom Cruise in the films for all the reasons that I know you understand. The same is happening to your awesome character now - he has lost a foot in height and a 100 lbs. Please bring him back as he should be!
