Summary: Jack Reacher is my hero!
Comment: I am definitely one of those who waits impatiently for the next Lee Child book. Since I've read them all, I feel like Reacher is an old friend. Personally I like him better when he doesn't get so emotionally involved (i.e., Die Trying) but I enjoyed Persuader from start to finish.
Jack becomes embroiled in an off-the-books undercover operation for personal motives. He's among brutal, untrusting people--with limited ability to communicate with the good guys. Lee Child's plotting is wonderful, and Jack Reacher is more than a macho man. He uses his brain more than his fists and knows his limitations.
I had no problem distinguishing the past from the present--even without italics. The past was fed out in just the proper increments to explain Reacher's present thoughts and actions.
Mr. Child, keep 'em coming!

Summary: Big, Tough, and Mean
Comment: PERSUADER By Lee Child
Big, Tough and Mean
Mr. Child has written another Reacher book, and a good one. Reacher is the type of hero that people can like. He's got no home now and no dependents and is coming from somewhere and at the end on the story he's going somewhere, in this book hitchhiking south. He was a special military policeman when he was in the service. Investigating a military case 10 years earlier he lost a very good female assistant to a very wicked man. A man who used a knife very cruelly on Reacher's assistant to slowly kill her. Then survived Reacher's revenge and made the mistake of letting Reacher, who thought he was dead until he seen him 10 years later leavening a symphony and getting in a Cadillac.
This is the exciting story of how Reacher found him, as the head in the same illegal game he was playing 10 years before with a couple of new twists and exacted a final revenge. Reacher who was not in the military now was lucky. He got with team of Federal Drug Enforcement Administration people who were trying to get in contact with someone to help them find one of there agents who disappeared while investigating the case which involved some of the same people. They set up a scam and the story with plenty of action and Reacher in the middle goes from there.
I think Mr. Child deserves four stars for this action packed Reacher episode. Roger Lee

Summary: Brutal , Suspenseful and Spectacular!
Comment: These three words describe Lee Child's Persuader, but you could use a lot more - terrific, heart-stopping, wonderful, but in all things it is a brutal story. The book is named after a very sophisticated assault rifle, and the book is aptly named since it is a very sophisticated thriller that will have you turning pages from the very first. This book is also unique in the Reacher series because we get to see a younger Reacher in it as well as the Reacher we have come to love (the loner). There are flashbacks to when he was a military cop, and it's interesting to see that. The guy actually does have a past. In this book Reacher is on a personal vendetta to get someone that he thought he killed ten years before. He meets all kinds of bad people, and on his way to exact his revenge he kills a lot of those people. He is faced with the most dangerous adversary out there - one who has really nothing to lose, but Reacher won't quit until he gets him. Hang onto your seats - you're in for a wild ride - and you won't be getting much else done while you're reading this book. It's a stunner!
