Reviews for Worth Dying For: (Jack Reacher 15)
A sequel to the terrific 61 Hours (try to read it first)... one of the great storytellers of the thriller genre
The Times
His is an ironclad storytelling ethos, a gift for narrative that grips like the proverbial vice... Reacher, as ever, is sui generis - a violent force for good set down by the author to eliminate ... Read moreevil and move on. But what counts is Child's ability to keep the reader turning the pages. If anyone can put down Worth Dying For after the first few pages, then they shouldn't really be reading thrillers at all
Independent
As a warrior who lacks a car, credit card, phone or weapon of his own, and has no continuing human ties or home, he is even more of a lone, denuded outsider than Lisbeth Salander, the heroine of Stieg Larsson's Millennium trilogy. Both are avengers who play on our atavistic instincts: when we cheer their lethal justice - if we do - we're acknowledging the pull of a primitive hatred that demands death and can't wait, scornful of the protracted pussyfooting of the law
The Sunday Times
Worth queuing up for
Sun
Explosive as ever
Daily Mirror
Just like Lisbeth Salander, Stieg Larsson's super violent super-genius, Reacher always find a way... Another cracking story from Child, who just seems to get better and better
City A.M.
Forget Tony Blair's memoirs, for most people the new Lee Child is the most anticipated book of the year. And with good reason... this is Child on fine form
Shortlist
A master craftsman of action thrillers. More than just compulsively readable, Mr Child's work shows a perfectly-fashioned understanding of his protagonist, dogged and moralistic. Reacher may get old some time, but he's sure not showing any signs of it
Wall Street Journal
Adrenaline-fuelled adventure... He knows exactly how to press all the buttons... yet another awesome performance
Evening Standard
Reacher is vengeance personified, a walking, fighting revenge fantasy... what he normally chooses to do is right wrongs and defend the weak against the forces of oppression... Characteristically, Child drives the plot like a rally car, a hair-raising ride careering down the route a break-neck speed... Lee Child's loyal fans know only too well that those who enter his Reacher tales have no reason to abandon hope. Quite the opposite and Worth Dying For is no exception
