Terrific. This is the new author's introduction to a very intriguing character, Jack Reacher. Reacher is a mystery man; a wanderer. That's very appealing to all of us with a wanderlust. The prison scene is highly entertaining. I like the way the author explains the reasoning the character uses before acting. The coincidence of Reacher stumbling into the very town where his brother was killed the night before is most unbelievable. I think the author needed to find a way to keep an indifferent Jack Reacher involved in the unravelling plot. Likewise, how he detatches Reacher from his main squeeze is a little messy. That's ok, it launches the whole series.
