Publisher's Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
Reacher never backs down from a problem.
And he's about to find a big one, on a deserted road in Arizona, where a car has crashed into the only tree for miles around.
Minutes later, Reacher is heading into town. To introduce himself to the shadowy crew who made it happen.
Their boss has a terrifying reputation, and the stakes are high. Just to get in and meet him, Reacher is going to have to achieve the impossible.
To get answers will be even harder. There are people in this hostile, empty place who would rather die than reveal their secrets.
But then, if Reacher is coming after you, you might be better off dead.

Action galore
The child’s as a duo certainly speed things up
No more eternal waffling to fill pages but excitement from start to finish
Reacher must going through coffee withdrawals as he is not drinking his brew on every 3.page
Keep it up
I enjoyed it

A path well trodden
Have enjoyed the series for many years but Better Off Dead was just too predictable. Might be time for Reacher to enjoy a mid life upgrade.

Different but good
i enjoyed this one, after 26 odd books we don't need the Reacher history. I think he only ate pizza and beans the whole book too, you can tell it's changing though. I found the narration quiet harsh but that's could just be that I'm from a different country.

Terrible narration
Typical Reacher storyline, but I couldn’t get past the terrible narration - it’s just so bad!

Jeff Harding….the best there is
Jeff’s performance to me is the quintessential personification of Reacher. Somehow I just find listening to him strangely comforting. I’ve listened to all of his Reacher readings 3 times! Can’t stop!

Good read
No way to tell how much input Andrew had but hopefully alot and we'll be able to have Reacher carry on agelessly into the future.

Great to have another book!
Overall, I enjoyed this book. The only criticism I'd have is the speed it wrapped up. It felt like a rushed end, but everything resolved itself as expected.
Enjoy the ride.

Not the best, but still good
The story seemed a bit off and the introduction of the terrorist and flashing back to Reachers truck bomb incident in his past was a bit of a stretch even for a hero type fiction series, I can stomach him finding issues and trouble at each new twin, but to run into the man who built the bomb that should have killed him all those years ago cmon!
The fact this one was all told in first person, is a huge change of tac for the series and I'm not sure if Reacher purists will enjoy it.
That said Reacher does what Reacher does in his very distinctive way, and Jeff Harding tells the story in a voice and tone that is unmistakable.
These audio books wouldn't be teacher without Jeff Harding narration and anyone complaining about that clearly hasn't listened to the entire series.

Reacher, bombs and first fights - 3 from 3
I have always enjoyed the Lee Child Reacher books because I know there will be some good action, a girl, and a decent story. Better Off Dead is the same and as good as all of them.
