This author just gained a new fan!

This is the first Lee Child book I've read, and it grabbed my attention from the very start. It has an evolving plot that keeps you wondering what the next page will bring. The involvement of the FBI and the Miltary shouldn't be looked at too critically or unrealistically as some readers may tend to do. This story, having as it's plot,a militia, lead by a charismatic,dangerous wacko who wants to form his own separate world in the wilds of Montana. When he instigates the kidnapping of an FBI agent,he unknowingly involves an innocent bystander who turns out to be Jack Reacher, a very skilled and highly decorated former member of the Military. This spells trouble for the militia's plans involving the agent and their sinister plans for their celebration of Independence Day. I look forward to catching up with past Reacher books,as I really enjoyed this one.

Shrug...shrug...shrug...shrug

A nify thriller, like his others, but irritatingly blemished by a nervous tick: every time two characters speak to one another, one or both "shrugs." He likely uses the word "shrug" more in this one book than in all of literature throughout the ages -- his other novels not included. Obviously the man has no editor, or at least one he's listen to.

Wowwy Zowwy

I found this book to be very interesting and the pace was just right. While I found some of the stuff to be a little boring they were made up for with the fast-paced action.

Good, but could have been better

I have been newly acquainted with books like Die Trying. I read Killing Floor first and was hooked. In Die Trying I didn't feel as sucked into the drama as in Mr. Child's first book. I think part of the reason that this book left me feeling different was that it was not written in first person point of view as in Killing Floor. Also, I don't think that there was as much emphasis on the character Jack Reacher as in the previous offering. Still, as you continue to read, you find yourself anticipating what will happen next. I will continue to read Mr. Child's books. I think that he has brought a unique vision to suspense writing and hope that he will continue to entertain readers.
