MEDIA REVIEWS
I love him. It's said that a Jack Reacher novel is bought every four seconds somewhere in the world. He is to crime fiction what Clint Eastwood's'man with no name'was to the western. Lee Child's genius in 17 novels has been to create a tough guy hero that men will envy and women will adore.Pure escapism...He has redefined the thriller for the 21st century...Reacher is a knight errant every bit as much as Raymond Chandler's Philip Marlowe was. ...stunningly good.I am no longer (if I ever was) an unbiased critic. I am more of a Lee Child fan. I am pro-Reacher,his massive but benevolent brute of a drifter,vigilante hero....I'll definitely barrel through the next one too.Smart,breathless...more ingenious than other Reacher books have been about the underground activities Reacher is thwarting.A fascinating,swaggeringly confident performance
Lee Child
One of Waterstones'very favourite authors,Lee Child sprang from redundancy at Granada Television in 1995 to rise to thriller-writing pre-eminence with his sequence of stories featuring ex-military policeman Jack Reacher. A huge draw at countless Waterstones events,working with Lee over the years has for us always been an absolute pleasure.
