He's just passing through Margrave, Georgia, and in less than an hour, he's arrested for murder. Not much of a welcome. All Reacher knows is that he didn't kill anybody. At least not here.

Definitely dates itself, but a very fun pulp fiction read with an amazing transition into the current era small screen by amazon prime.
Sherlock Holmes meets Jason Borne for gorey fun in between military skills porn from the era of its birth, so know what you're getting into first.

I never read any of the Reacher novels before Amazon made the series. I read the first one before I started watching and I got hooked. I am on my 5th one while reading other books in between.
I don't usually read action-adventure books, but this was a fun read. The main character, Jack Reacher, is a tough, ex-military, take-no-prisoners kind of guy. He's an enjoyable action hero. The story picks up pace and characters as it goes along, and the overall effect of the good guys winning the day is tough to beat.
On the minus side, it could have used some more cutting down by the editor, especially at the beginning. I hated the "coincidence" (it's always tough to get a coincidence past me in a novel). I enjoyed the ending though so it wasn't a fatal sin.
