Jack Reacher: Difference between revisions

{{work}}

A series of novels by British-born Lee Child, about [[Yanks With Tanks|ex-Military Policeman]] Jack Reacher, [[Walking the Earth]] after mustering out from over a decade of service. A [[Military Brat]], having spent his younger years being posted all round the world, he decides to get a closer look at his home country. On his journeys across America he stumbles across his fair share of forgers, smugglers, gun runners, drug dealers and assassins. [[Blatant Lies|He then proceeds to sit down with each of them in turn and have civilized discussions -over a lovely cup of tea- why they really should stop all this unpleasant business and whatnot]].

 

The [[Summer Blockbuster|Hollywood Bluster]] except in book form, this series is a fun [[Guilty Pleasure]]. While Reacher can come across as an unapologetic [[Marty Stu]], Child tends to give you a decent plot with more than a few twists in it, typically ending it all with fast paced and well written [[Stuff Blowing Up|shootout]].
