Reader Review: Jack Reacher isn't your typical hero so don't look for that in this story. He's a bit scary but the guy you want by your side when things get rough. He finds himself charged with murder almost minutes after coming into the town of Margrave, Georgia. It is one tense situation after another for Jack as he navigates through each, trying to figure out who he can trust and how to shake off this town. It doesn't take long to be drawn into this intricate web of lies and mystery. The writer uses a first person narrative to tell the story, which allows you to track Jack's reasoning and strategies in real time. The writing style took some getting used to and made it a slower read for about the first half of the book. Once I adapted to the style, it became synonymous with Jack. The pace of the story was swift even when the writing style slowed me down. While there were some predictable moments, there were some things that happened I never saw coming with a pretty exciting finish. I still have some unanswered questions about Jack and am intrigued enough to continue reading this series. Great first book in the series.
INTRODUCING REACHER: The First Jack Reacher Novel
NEW INTRODUCTION BY THE AUTHOR
Ex-military policeman Jack Reacher is a drifter. He’s just passing through Margrave, Georgia, and in less than an hour, he’s arrested for murder. Not much of a welcome. All Reacher knows is that he didn’t kill anybody. At least not here. Not lately. But he doesn’t stand a chance of convincing anyone. Not in Margrave, Georgia. Not a chance in hell.
See Jack Reacher now in his first major motion picture.

Reviewer: A reader from Brisbane Australia
I initially found it strange to read a novel written in 1st person, but after I got past that, I really enjoyed this first Jack Reacher novel.
Jack has a strong military history but is now a drifter; looking to see and experience America because he's spent much of his life O/S as a military kid & then as a military policeman. He's a really interesting character who I enjoyed getting to know. Whilst I love pure escapist fiction, it was good that his reactions were realistic & that he was not just a "superhero". The plot was interesting and I never felt that I could totally predict the ending. I can't wait to read the next novel from Lee Child!
