 Go Back to England ! September 3, 2008
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
What a terrible disappointment. I've read all the Jack Reacher novels and am so VERY glad I chose to borrow this last one, "Nothing To Lose", from the public library.
If the author wants to get political, enjoys criticism of his "host" nation, just go on back to jolly ?? old England....we don't need another parasite on our shores.
This book has radical political views supporting foreign nations & criticizes the U.S. It offends me, & I notice others feel the same.
To be fair, most of the Jack Reacher novels will keep a reader up nights until the book is finished. This book was difficult to keep reading, too much superfluous information, nothing much to want to continue reading.
Contrary to the title of this book, I believe Lee Child "lost" quite a bit this time; many of us see no reason to read his books again!
 Good, but not his best. September 3, 2008

Well worth the read, but then I'm a die hard Child\Reacher fan. Kept my interest and had somw good twists and turns, but left me wanting just a bit more.
Not the only one. September 2, 2008

A total waste of a good tree, I hate to say it but I am afraid the Jack Reacher franchise has run out of steam. If you have never read a Reacher novel, do not start with this one - read the first ten and stop.

One of the reasons I've always bought and read this series is that I enjoyed a main character with an unshakeable sense of honor and hardly any dithering. So it was disappointing when the author jumped on the tired old anti-war bandwagon. I thought at least he might hold it down to the usual "I hate this war but I honor the servicemen who fight in it," but this time Reacher really goes in the tank. "My country let me down, so I'm released from all personal honor, too." Who needs it? It's the last Reacher novel I'll buy or read.
I guess if more servicemen had felt this way, we wouldn't have won the war while Child wasn't watching.
