The Prometheus Dec ... Nothing To Lose by Lee Child
good, not great. Snitched from Linda I have finished reading Nothing to Lose by Lee Child. This was an OK book. The characters were well written, but a little cliched - the drifter who used to be a cop blowing into town just in time to save the world and emotionally rescue the small-town female cop with a tragedy in her past. I ... ...

Just so you know somebody checks these things, I point out to justifiedsinner that his #27 does NOT correctly respond to #26, but what we shoud do about it I don't know... I just read four Jack Reacher novels myself this month. I read The Hard Way, Running Blind, The Enemy, and Nothing to Lose...What a fun way to spend a lazy summer!! ... of being out there alone, of being so chameleon-like that the players never suspected there was a cop in their midst."

Nothing to Lose by Lee Child ... fufilled it's promise of being fascinating all the way through, although the puns didn't improve.
Sole Survivor and nothing to lose passed quickly and unremarkably. Koontz simply because I don't think I get on with his style, but a Nothing to Lose was the first average novel from Lee Chil ... More popcorn thrillers in nothing to lose I've liked all the previous Jack Reacher stories by Lee Child, some of which have been very good indeed. This however is quite tame, and almost dull in comparison.
Even a bad Lee Child is better than Koontz though. ... I loved his celtic trilogy, and found a couple of others readable, but I've bad memories of Hood. Maybe it was just me.
Nothing to lose
house of suns and big sleep on 3 for 2 at Waterstones as I was passing by, not intending to have bought any books.

... the Atlantic for several years now, but the strain of producing a new Jack Reacher novel every summer is clearly showing in Nothing to Lose, Child's 12th installment of this once-engaging series, and one of the most boring books I've read this year. Its dull prose and uninspired plotting make ... ... and still haven't got it out of my head. What a story!!
I'm well past halfway in Lee Child's latest Jack Reacher novel Nothing to Lose, and though Ii've been a big fan of the Reacher books, this new one's not just blah and deary, but Child manages to jump the shark big-time around page 200, ... I enjoyed finishing Lee Child's Nothing to Lose, maybe a little more far-fetched than some of his and went on to start Trudy Canavan's Priestess of the White, a slow start in the first volume but warming up now.
