MEDIA REVIEWS
The bone-crunching,joint-popping action is as technically precise and primevally satisfying as ever. The extra-lean prose is as ruthlessly linear as the plot...(However,)Lee Child proves he can write about emotions other than lust and anger and reveals his hero to be more than just a man of steel. Eighteen novels in,his franchise shows no sign of running out of steam.
Lee Child's bodacious action hero,Jack Reacher,has already tramped through 17 novels and three ebook singles. But his latest,"Never Go Back,"may be the best desert island reading in the series. It's exceptionally well plotted. And full of wild surprises. And wise about Reacher's peculiar nature./Mr. Child's Jack Reacher series is as brainy as it is brawny...Starting with an opening sequence that throws three huge surprises at Reacher,there are more neat tricks and clever set pieces in this one volume than Mr. Child has ever strung together before...Read it. You'll see why.
Is Reacher getting soft Not a chance. The righteous violence when it comes is still pretty astonishing. This is one of Reacher's best outings. A must for all fans.Jack Reacher is a man's man,a loner,a renegade crusader for justic...The harder-than-nails hero is on the top of his form...You'd better read it.This may well be the best of the bunch...some of the best,wiliest writing Child has ever done.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.
