About this deal

I found out about Jack Reacher late, so I didn't have to wait for annual installments until about 5 books ago.

When I eat a certain delicacy over and over, one after the other, there comes a time when I want something different. I remember slowing down considerably between 40 and 60% of the book - but then it again thankfully reconnects by the 70% mark and makes for a good fast page turning read - the kind you expect from a Reacher book.Police from the 75th MP, led by Warrant Officer Pete Espin, later take him into custody and bring him to the same prison where Turner is held.

I really enjoyed how Child took the story one way and then the next, introducing characters full of depth and flavour allowing them all to play a growing role in the outcome of the book.

It pains me to say this, as these books have been the highlight of my reading calender for a long time. A vastly entertaining read with less of the overt violence, but not altogether, that is normal associated with Jack’s exploits. He is discharged from military services, owns nothing but the clothes on his back which instead of throwing in the laundry, are thrown into the rubbish bin when dirty. Never Go Back is Lee Child's new novel of action-charged suspense starring "one of the best thriller characters at work today" ( Newsweek).

For me Jack Reacher books are never about the ending, sure they’re important as one book tends to lead into another, for me however they are about the journey within. Reacher stepped past him and went after the right-hand guy, who saw him coming and swung a feeble right of his own. There are still the logical inconsistencies that plague this series for me but I suppose that I've read so many now that I've beefed up my suspension of disbelief muscles.C. to rendezvous with the intriguing female voice on the phone (belonging to the 110th's new commanding officer) that certainly piqued his interest in a few of the preceding novels.
