Better and better

Another great book by Lee Child on Reacher. Once again, superbly narrated by Jeff Harding. Jeff really brings the characters to life.

Flash Back Time

I'm slowly working my way through Lee Child's offerings and that includes his Reacher novels. The Enemy is an important chapter of the Reacher story. Not only because it shows where some of his values come from and his desire to do the right thing, but it also highlights a darker side to Jack Reacher in his execution of justice and where it may have originated. I was shocked at the ending but not really surprised. I love the detail of the weapons and the ballistics captured in this book.

Jeff Harding, need I say more. If he's 6'5", I'm sure he's Jack Reacher. If he's not, he's a brilliant voice actor.

Listen to / read this one first

I came back to this one for my second listen having read / listened to every other Jack Reacher story at least once. I enjoyed this even better the second time around. I feel I know the main character so much better now and rate The Enemy very highly. It has so much more meaning now and puts many of the other stories into perspective. I love Lee Child's writing style and the Jack Reacher series is one of the best in modern times. I thoroughly recommend this story and all of the other 19 or so in the series. Enjoy!

Another good Reacher read

Any additional comments?

Just wanted to note that this book is out of sink in the Jack Reacher Series, this story is about Reacher when he was in the Military Police, I still enjoyed it and it filled in some of the gaps for me

JD Grant / Lee Child does it yet again.

Such a realistic story and performance- had to remind myself it is a work of fiction once or twice as I listened! Hoping this is another book which turns up as a tv series.

Another great Jack Reacher novel

I’m not really a fan of the first person tale, you always know that the story teller will survive, they have to or they can’t tell you their story. There are ways around it but I usually find those stories clunky and awkward around that point.

The story is well crafted by Lee Child as you can well expect. Now I haven’t been in the American armed forces yet I imagine they operated in the way the author explained. It wouldn’t surprise me to find out that they did. There were a few times I thought that the direction Reacher wasn’t travelling was blatantly obvious and I wanted to shout at him but I’m thinking with the mindset of people living in 2022 not 1990 and let that part go. The ending was decent enough and people got what they deserved and Reacher went on. I enjoyed the narration even though the narrator has limited voices in his repertoire, after all he has many more than I do.

A great book in my opinion.. 4 stars

Stunning plot

Intracally woven storyline that challenges the reader to pick out the clues. Twists and turns throughout. A sheer pleasure to read. Sad for Reacher but he always does the right thing. What a good guy. Thanks Lee and Jeff.
