David Sexton, Evening Standard
[Child] makes what he does seem simple. If it is, though, it's strange nobody else has managed it so well.

Maxim
Reacher fans will love it...taking justice into his own hands and to hell with the wos'name...a solid inter-Bond-film substitute.

Mirror
Classic Child...Reacher, both a man's man and a ladies' man, proves once again that he's also his own man.

Customer Reviews

Oh dear Lee, What went wrong this time?
I love Lee's Reacher series and like so many others have ready every single book and await the new one on it's day of release. But after reading NTL, and this took almost a week instead of the usual two day's, I asked myself why I had bothered. The plot, if it can even be called that, is bizare and thin. So thin it's just full of holes like a Swiss cheese. Reacher seems to be running on autopilot (Or is that Lee?) and the book simply does not flow because of this unlike the rest of the series.

I just hope that Lee and our hero Reacher are back on form in the next installment as NTL is simply a big, big letdown.

Sooo disappointed
I ordered this book with a great sense of anticipation - I love Jack Reacher and have found all of Lee Child's other books totally believable. I was bored by the constant too-ing and fro-ing between Hope and Despair - that's actually how I felt when I was reading it - hoping it was going to get better and despairing when it didn't. I can't wait for the next one - it's got to be better

A Little Boring
I personally thought this was the weakest Reacher novel of the series. There was little action in it and the plot was very tedious at times.

I hope and expect the next one to be a belter after this let down.
