Just terrible in comparison to previous work. It’s a stuttering mess with boring plot line, Bond villains and completely unrealistic. Loved Lee Child’s Jack Reacher…Andrew not so much! The cashing in on the name is not a worthy pursuit. Also, hate the Reacher in the first person approach. Every second sentence starts with “I”. Took me a couple of weeks to get through (yes, I could put it down) and I was frankly glad that I’d finished.

In the words of Lee Child...’Reacher said nothing. That’s for damn sure’. This book has no soul.

It’s ok, but lacking in the highly anticipated controversy. But why am I reviewing today?? To put it in Trump tweet terms - - .... IT’S CENSORED! That’s right folks...all the juicy stuff we were looking forward to hearing in performance is literately audibly BEEPED out. What’s going on Audible? I’m definitely returning this one, just on principle. Really takes away from the limited enjoyment.

I just listened to 22 hours of audiobook and it was more of what was absent than what was present. The vast majority of the book comprised a relatively detailed description of how the survivors compensated for the loss of their modern day amenities...and then it ended. Where was the character development? Where was the complexity in relationships? Where were the plot twists? Where was the suspense and the intrigue? Where was the loss, the conflict and the horror?? This was purported to be a book about the end of humanity as we know it; instead, it turned out to be a mediocre survivalists guide with no plot. Disappointing guys.
