Bye, Reacher!

I have read every Reacher book, and almost all of Lee Child’s writings. He’s excellent. Or rather, he was. This … this ….word soup was a long convoluted tale to nowhere that began not by grabbing the reader but by washing the reader’s face with dirty wet mop. Just bad and stupid.

Throughout the entire book, I kept screaming, “Why is Reacher even bothering?” We ALL know the real Reacher would have awakened and gone in search of a cup of coffee and never looked at these people again. What was his reason for staying? Why even get involved? Definitely not standard Reacher behavior.

And, as if that weren’t enough, there’s Scott Brick’s outrageously bad narration.

Dear Lord, why? Why must EVERYONE in this book speak in the same tone/pitch/pace as would a1960s-style bad guy bound to a post by barbed wire. You know…Like they’re grinding their teeth, curling their lips and tightly squeezing their butt cheeks together as the talk. That little gasp before a sentence begins. The chopping off of words. It’s so bad.

Lord.
Make.
It.
Stop!

Make this whole book stop. Im halfway through and i don’t think I’m gonna finish. I’m just too disappointed and annoyed.

Plods along for long periods of time. Worse yet, the plodding adds NOTHING to the plot (if that’s what you want to call this stringing together of words).

It’s the primary character, wringing her hands non-stop, reminiscing ad nauseam, about nothing. (Psst: FYI, there are NO thrills, no twists, no psychological cliffhangers, nothin’ honey.)

It’s … it’s … a Harlequin romance with one or two “naughty” words. Even the sex is flaccid, tepid, dull.

Start at the last chapter. You’ll thank me.

Lots of twists, great characters, and great writing. I’m about to go looking for more books by him.

(Slight spoilers!!)
Truly enjoyed it. Even though you know there will be twists, they aren’t the ones McFadden deals out! Enjoyable. Coulda done with less of the victim’s drama.
And it was long. But long is good sometimes.

You honestly don’t have a clue who’s good, who’s bad or who’s ugly! Great fun.

The description doesn’t do it justice. Scary…interesting…all if it. Well worth a second season.

Loved the story, its twists, its sounds. Everything was well done. Wish I’d listened sooner. Worth it. Bravo!!

Awful reading, worse story. Or the other way around.

Normally I like Preston and Child. Not today.

I listened while on the treadmill and would find myself spacing off for long periods of time, only to check back and realize the only thing that had changed was the narrator’s accent from horrible to unacceptably bad.

Pleeze keep your money. Hell, a refund is due everyone who bought this clunky stinker.

No matter which set of stories you’re listening to, at the end of your episode. It jumps to 8.5. As if that is the next in line. So you might be listening to 6.2, waiting for 6.3 to start but it jumps immediately to 8.5. Not sure what’s wrong but it’s extremely frustrating.

Otherwise, I highly recommend the series. Detail, performance, and overall storytelling are excellent! I was hooked after the first couple of minutes.
