WTF?! 60 reader and yet no reply?! Why would anyone come into a thread if it is about a character they have no idea about?
I was just asking if there was any other fan here. They can have say no. It just amaze me that there's so many people checking out a thread on subject they have no idea about.

Personally I have not heard of either Lee Childs or Jack Reacher.
I do a lot of reading, but never came across this author.
I've read every single of Lee Child's books and absolutely LOVE IT!!! In fact it is only fiction I ever really enjoy and cannot wait for the next book to come out.
I have all the books, and they are excellent!! He's a hell of a lot more violent in the last one...almost like he's getting fed up with all the corruption he finds and he's going all out. He's a great character and I would love to see an HBO series with Reacher.
I would love to be like Reacher...
I keep up with Reacher and James Lee Burke's Dave Robicheaux books. Burke's books are beautifully written; word painting.
I will when I can get it from the library. Right now it's too popular.Have you read Burke's last Robicheaux book?
Have you read Burke's last Robicheaux book?
YES! Tore my heart out! There was something about this book that just made it clear that "The End Is Nigh..." I don't want to give any spoilers, but this one and Tin Roof Blowdown had a very deep impact on me.
I'm going to reread it this week.

Has anyone read James Lee Burke's Billy Bob Holland books?
I read it, too. I don't know what to think! I'm not going to spoil it, either, but WOW!
I think I read all but one. The one with his relative, Hack Holland in Rain Gods is very good, too.
Just remembered...in one of the Reacher books Reacher leaves the apartment of a Seattle lawyer, or Asst. District Attorney (I forget which), after a night of sex, and that female character is a character created by Alafair Burke, JLB's daughter in her first couple of books. It was a nod to her because on her website (or somewhere) Alafair made a comment that she loved Jack Reacher.
I don't know what to think, either...I was open-mouthed when I finished it. Very, very few books do that to me. Lord, what is he going to do next?? He hasn't said anything on his website.
My Dad thinks he's stepping aside and letting Alafair Burke have the limelight for awhile. I'm sure, though, that JLB will continue writing. I can't see him retiring, but then, he is in his 70s. So, who knows?
