The New Jack Reacher?

[andy-hughes]

I am coming to the end now, I have very much enjoyed it, although I can see where Child Junior has had input into the dialogue.

What do others think - and are they looking forward to Lee Child handing over his creation, and wonder what will happen in the future?

I have read all the books, and I really hope the standard doesn't drop.

I think he will still be contributing to the next few books before he retires for good. Brilliant, easy to read stories.

I’ve read three or four of the books. They are all virtually the same. Read four, read all. Re Child Junior, I suspect different pen, same men.

andy-hughes ..... Have you read the british version ..... Ben Hope stories by Scott Mariani ?

Obviously as a fan, I can;t agree with that assessment, but I understand what you mean. If any art form doesn;t appeal, then it appears 'samey' to the non-fan.

// Re Child Junior, I suspect different pen, same men. //

It's not his son, it's his younger brother who is taking over - he is an established thriller writer, but not in the league of Lee, but not many are.

I haven't, but I am intrigued, and will check them out, thank you.

I mite try one Andy.(I see theres 25!!)

[andy-hughes]

Try in order ag - there are background stories that connect, so better in order, but not essential, each is a standalone story.

Last year I sold the whole series of Jack Reacher and Ben Hope books for £100. Now I've got to find a new similar author !
