 Echo Burning November 11, 2008
Have read all of Lee Child's books, "Echo Burning" was the last one to read. Love all the books, love the Jack Reacher character, and would have given Echo Burning 4 stars but it started out slow, but eventually turned into a page turner.
Another excellent book by Lee Child October 25, 2008
As usual, Lee Child has written a book that causes the reader to stay up late to dfinish reading! A real page turner!
 Reacher Doesn't Do Texas September 13, 2008

I read this awhile back and was surprised to see Amazon still pushing it. Lee Child is a good author, but his books have fallen out of favor with me in that I catagorize them as "formula books." They are all basically the same, in different locales etc. I feel the same about James Patterson, yet people seem to love his books.
Child started out so well, but now has fallen into a predictable pattern. His character will get into trouble within the first hour or less after he arrives in a town. I can appreciate he wants to travel light, but this business of rinsing out his clothes and after another wearing, buying new and tossing the old. I feel sure he must have a certain 'air' about him. As others have pointed out. he didn't research Texas very well at all and the errors are numerous and, frankly, bothersome.
Reacher seems to be basically an empty shell, wandering about and taking what comes along. A drifter. I can't care about him anymore and that is sad, because he was so effective when he intercepted the bad guy after the pretty lady coming out of the cleaning store ........... way back in the early novel. Remember how good that was? And how lame the current efforts are.
Perhaps a new character would inspire Mr. Child. He is a talented author.

Another great Lee Child book. His main character draws you in up to your eyeballs. Read all his books and you'll fall in love with Jack Reacher.
