Publisher's Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
Blue Moon is the latest instalment in Lee Child’s internationally popular Jack Reacher series, read by Jeff Harding.
Shortlisted for the Audible Sounds of Crime Award 2020.
As featured on Richard & Judy’s ‘Keep Reading and Carry On’.
Jack Reacher is back in a brand new white-knuckle listen from Lee Child.
It's a random universe, but once in a blue moon things turn out just right.
In a nameless city, two rival criminal gangs are competing for control. But they hadn’t counted on Jack Reacher arriving on their patch.
Reacher is trained to notice things.
He’s on a Greyhound bus, watching an elderly man sleeping in his seat, with a fat envelope of cash hanging out of his pocket. Another passenger is watching too...hoping to get rich quick.
As the mugger makes his move, Reacher steps in.
The old man is grateful, yet he turns down Reacher’s offer to help him home. He’s vulnerable, scared, and clearly in big, big trouble.
What hold could the gangs have on the old guy? Will Reacher be in time to stop bad things happening?
The odds are better with Reacher involved. That's for damn sure.

Child calling it in?
You would be forgiven for thinking you're reading a Tarantino script. You think to yourself there is no way this could get any more unrealistic, It just does though. Over and over again this book delivers moments of actual (Laugh out loud) lunacy. My wife looked at me at one point while I was making dinner as I was in tears laughing and asked "What are you reading" Lee Child I said, Are those suppose to be funny.... No darling they are not.
If you enjoy the idea of a random waitress with no experience in warfare running and gunning by the end of the book helping amass a 30+ body count then this book is for you.
If you enjoy anything Child wrote pre 2008 you will likely be like me. Wondering if child is calling it in or has a ghostwriter.

Time for Jack Reacher and I to part ways.
Honestly feel like it’s too me for Lee Childs to wrap it up with Jack Reacher. Didn’t enjoy his last book and enjoyed this one even less. Yes, Reacher is capable of mass destruction, but it is as always exercised with finesse previously.This is all bull in a china shop stuff and very little substance to what used to be interesting and engaging story lines. Think Reacher has run his course. Please retire him before you ruin him altogether.

Worst Reacher book yet
This was the worst Reacher book that I have read or listened to. Honestly. I have listened to other Lee Child books by this narrator and don’t love him, but by the end of the book it was getting hard to distinguish the characters. It was like the narrator had lost interest in the story too. Makes me question whether I will get the next Lee Child book, certainly won’t be rushing to buy.

Great additions to the library
I’ve been looking forward to the release of this book for 6 months and downloaded it as soon as it was released.
My only regret is it is now finished and I’ll have to wait another 12 months ... although I’ll probably have a reread in a couple of months and enjoy the rough justice all over again

The best Reacher book in a long time.
We really enjoyed this book. While waiting for it to come out we have read Mitch Rapp, The Gray Man and others and had forgotten how good Lee Child is at writing. The storyline as usual is sound but his grasp of the English language and turn of phrase are what sets him apart from the pack. His narration of Reacher’s thoughts make for a really interesting and gripping tale. Looking forward to another book next year.

Far fetched and ponderous
Far fetched even by usual Reacher standards. Too much repetitive description of the thinking processes and related actions. Very ponderous, made worse by the reading style. If Reacher’s brain and action was as slow as the writing and reading styles, he would have been dead at about page 10.....I finished it but it was a struggle.

One of Childs best!
We enjoyed this much more than a few of his more recent outings- high body count but lets face it, as explained in an earlier novel they are the proverbial cockroaches and you don’t feel guilty killing a cockroach .

Absolutely brilliant
After the disappointing last book, Blue moon is a classic Reacher story, maybe one of the best Lee Child ever wrote. Jeff Harding gives a great performance as always.
