Jack Reacher, Book 5

De: Lee Child

Narrado por: Dick Hill

The best-selling novel featuring the "wonderfully epic hero" (People) who inspired the hit film Jack Reacher.

Thumbing across the scorched West Texas desert, loner Jack Reacher has nowhere to go and all the time in the world to get there. Cruising the same stretch of two-lane blacktop is pretty Carmen Greer. But for Reacher, the lift comes with a hitch. Carmen's got a story to tell, and it's a wild one. All about her husband, her family secrets, and a hometown that's pure Gothic. She's also got a plan. Jack Reacher's part of it. And before the sun sets, this ride could cost them both their lives.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Smashingly suspenseful...The kind of daylight-noir setting that Jim Thompson loved. Child builds tension to unbearable extremes.” (Kirkus Reviews [starred review])

“An explosive nail-biting climax.” (Library Journal)

great writer even better narrator.

this,narrator. dick hill makes the book and characters come alive. it's another hit for sure

Love the series but,

This narrator is AWFUL!! He is fine for Reacher, but he makes the female characters sound like strung out drug addicts! Sorry, I just wonder why he was chosen to narrated these books! Johnathan MeClain is so much better

Awesome as always

Story, performance, writing and more are spot on and enjoyable. No matter how many times I listen!!

Love

Loving the jack reacher books. They keep me interested for hours. I won't be able to stop now.

Reacher doing too much Sherlock Holmes stuff

The best Reacher stories have interesting and likable characters and straightforward plot without too much Jack doing the "I'll think like the bad guy and find them in motel X" stuff and "I'll guess the bad guy with random clues and act like I haven't guessed yet". In this book the bad guy is obvious for the reader somewhere two thirds of the book and the main characters are not people whose faith really interests you. So not one of the best Reacher novels.

Very Disappointed

If this had been the first Jack Reacher book I had listened to, I would not have bought any others. "This is Texas" explained all the negative behavior, and all the Northeasterner's negative stereotypical beliefs about Texans were there. As for the narrator, his "female" voices were weak and pensive, and if he's ever been to Texas, you couldn't prove it by his accent. Sounded more like Philadelphia with a bit of Michigan kicked in!

I am an avid Lee Child fan. I appreciate the suspense without horror and gore. Jack reacher is my favorite character. Dick Hill as the narrator is always on point. I enjoyed the story and as simple as this may seem, I can never guess the ending. I am always awaiting the next Reacher adventure.

Good Read!

This one even had Reached guessing. Of course, he always has a woman to help puzzle it out. I love that!

Good, not super.

I'm working through the Reacher series and this one was OK. I liked most of it and will continue the series. Reacher was super human as usual. The little girl didn't seem to fit well and seemed out of context sometimes - too knowledgeable for her age at times, not mature enough at others. I also didn't like the way the narrator read the little girl's lines, so that may be impacting my impression. If your a Jack Reacher fan, this is worth listening to. If you haven't listened to any Reacher books yet, start at the beginning of the series!

another great story,

Well developed storyline, surprises throughout. Lee Child keeps the consistency of Reacher's character in place.
