I love the Jack Reacher novels.  Lee Child is a fabulous writer. The story and suspense won't let you put the book down.

Lee Child really knows how to deliver on these page turners. What I am really enjoying about the Reacher series (and I am going through them one-by-one) is how Reacher is both physically imposing and gifted, but how he also has a bit of the ol' Sherlock Holmes about him that is based on experience and street smarts. Reacher is not at all like me, and yet, I can't help but want to be like him at some primitive level. I enjoyed this plotline from start to finish. How would you assassinate the VP... and why would you be doing it? Really fun stuff.

Maybe it's the "black and white " way that Reacher thinks, but I am hooked!
I do not appreciate sex and unnecessary violence in my reads, but the Reacher brand doesn't back away from it either.

As a huge fan of Reacher, I loved the story.  The only problem was that it was too short!  More please!

Jack Reacher is just awesome!  Lee Child does it again.  Too bad these books aren't three times longer because once they're done its so long until the next one.  The twist to the bad guys story was just genius.

The Jack Reacher books are by far my favorite series to read and the only book I sit counting down the days waiting for but I do have 2 gripes thus far.
1) For the time being I have had enough of Reacher's escapades being set in the country, bring back a city setting.
2) How many damn detours is Jack going to come across on his way to meeting Miss Virginia girl? I understand the thrill of anticipation but I don't think I can stand one more book dragging this out any further.

Aside from this, A Wanted Man had plenty of Jack's delicious wit and cunning and of course a good helping of Jack tenaciously kicking the bad guys asses. The plot kept you guessing although the ending was perhaps a bit anticlimactic and glum, with all explanations/revelations made rather quickly as if we were running out of room in the book. But it was all in there and A Wanted Man certainly didn't disappoint, so bring on the next one!
Although I will say, this latest book did give me an eerie sense that we may be approaching our heroes inevitable demise...?

I was really looking forward to this book and it didn't disappoint.  As an aside, I am still having difficulty paying for an ebook that is almost as much as a hard back.  Saying that I still bought it and enjoyed it.  It was a good background story as to why he left the military.  The plot as usual was engaging and interesting.  I have read every Jack Reacher story and continue to enjoy them all. Lee Child is one of my favorite authors and I am an advid reader

Lee Childs books are never disappointing. I love the Jack Reacher Character the way he just wanders the states with just his toothbrush and buying new clothes instead of carring a suitcase. I like how he sort of stumbles into other peoples and takes care of them especially from bullies

Lee Child has done it again.  In this book, he put together an intricate plot featuring his protaganist with a sense of justice, Jack Reacher.  The reader is taken along on a journey which begins with Jack Reacher hitchhiking at an Interstate highway intersection trying to catch rides to Virginia.

A car stops and after what sems to be a debate withing the car, they offer Jack a ride.  As they proceed, otensnibly trying to make Chicago by morning.  Jack's inquisitive mind begins to pick flaws in the story the driver and the other passengers have related.

In the meantime, an FBI agent, Julia Sorenson, begins an investigation into a murder and possible abduction near the spot where the car picked Reacher up.

Events then unfold in typical Jack Reacher fashion and as usual in one of Lee child books, things are not what they appear.

In this book, Lee Child adds a certain nuance to his narrative and his prose is a little darker than most of hid previous works.

It is an entertaining read and I highly recommend it.

Love the Jack Reacher series!  This installment is a great addition to the series.  My only complaint is the new book just does NOT last - loved it so much I read it in two sittings...!!  Quick pace and "can't put it down" make for a great read that ends all too soon...  Looking forward to the next one Lee!
