Trade ReviewA sequel to the terrific
61 Hours (try to read it first)... one of the
great storytellers of the thriller genre * The Times *
His is an ironclad storytelling ethos, a
gift for narrative that
grips like the proverbial vice... Reacher, as ever, is sui generis - a violent force for good set down by the author to eliminate evil and move on. But what counts is Child's ability to keep the reader turning the pages.
If anyone can put down Worth Dying For after the first few pages, then they shouldn't really be reading thrillers at all * Independent *
As a warrior who lacks a car, credit card, phone or weapon of his own, and has no continuing human ties or home, he is even more of a lone, denuded
outsider than Lisbeth
Salander, the heroine of Stieg Larsson's Millennium trilogy. Both are
avengers who play on our atavistic instincts: when we cheer their
lethal justice - if we do - we're acknowledging the pull of a primitive hatred that demands death and can't wait,
scornful of the protracted pussyfooting of the law * The Sunday Times *
Worth queuing up for * Sun *
Explosive as ever * Daily Mirror *
