3 Stars just because I have been a fan of this author and this character since the beginning. That said, in this book I don’t recognize Jack Reacher....who is this brutal indifferent killer? Beheadings? Looking forward to finding the reluctant hero that I love in the next book, if he is the same guy as in Blue Moon, then I am afraid I am out.

I like it. Simple and straightforward + some action, couldn’t ask for more.

The obvious redaction of which city he was speaking of throughout the novel was irritating to me for some reason. I liked the pace and storyline minus that fact, but I kept wondering “in which city these crazy events may be taking place” and that was constantly distracting me from the plot.
I look forward to reading the Sentinel. I hope Andrew Child does not ruin this series for me.

Not my favorite Reacher, it feels as though too many topics were touched. He is still a favorite character.

- Strong character development? No

Reacher is back in form!!
Blue Moon was surprisingly fun. Reacher takes on two gangs with a ragtag group of veterans and a pretty waitress. The story moves at a brisk pace and the action is up pretty much all the time. It's also quite violent, Reacher's body count is certainly high.
I enjoyed this book more than few previous entries. Go read it.

Some interesting characters and a decent plot but some of the action was ludicrous even by thriller standards.

Quick read but only because I skipped at least a dozen pages of repetition and nonsense.
Random ass European mobs take over a big ass unnamed city, okay sure.
Random ass sidekicks (what is going on here with all the sidekicks, anyway???) that just happen to be as badass as Reacher, okay gettin a little weird now but whatever.
State of the art cancer curing medicine is at a facility that happens to have a cash only window??? Okay now we're just getting silly...
Reacher murdering EVERYBODY, with a minimum double digit body count in the span of an hour? Okay this is getting to be a little ridiculous.
And then the big reveal is FAKE NEWS? Okay, I can't suggest this to anyone unless they've read the 23 other Reacher books.
