Helpful Score: 1

I am a big Jack Reacher fan and looked forward to reading this book. Like the others in this series, I am interested in reading about a colorful character, a real man's man, who follows his own personal principles rather than one handed down by his government or some other organized entity. However, Child takes this opportunity to make some personal political statements that are wholly inappropriate for an escapist novel.
When Barbara Streisand started waxing on about politics in one of her concerts a brave audience member shouted, "Just shut up and sing, Barbara!" I wanted to shout something similar to Mr. Child when I finished reading this book.
