A review by marshaskrypuch
Dead Zero by Stephen Hunter

2.0

I had hopes that this writer would tide me over until another Lee Child came out. Didn't happen. Stephen Hunter doesn't quite have the formula worked out. Jack Reacher novels entertain not only because they have intriguing scenarios, action, blood and humour. They work because Jack Reacher is an interesting character. Ditto for the other people Child creates. Stephen Hunter has the gizmos and the guns, and there's some humour as well, but the characters are pretty much all connect-the-dots. Maybe it's because I came in midway on a series, but that's a lame excuse and we all know it.
