A new Jack Reacher novel by Lee Child! Stephen King calls Jack Reacher “the coolest continuing series character”—and now he’s back in this masterly new thriller from #1New York Timesbestselling author Lee Child. “Why is this town called Mother’s Rest?”That’s all Reacher wants to know. But no one will tell him. It’s a tiny place hidden in a thousand square miles of wheat fields, with a railroad stop, and sullen and watchful people, and a worried woman named Michelle Chang, who mistakes him for someone else: her missing partner in a private investigation she thinks must have started small and then turned lethal. Reacher has no particular place to go, and all the time in the world to get there, and there’s something about Chang . . . so he teams up with her and starts to ask around. He thinks: How bad can this thing be? But before long he’s plunged into a desperate race through LA, Chicago, Phoenix, and San Francisco, and through the hidden parts of the internet, up against thugs and assassins every step of the way—right back to where he started, in Mother’s Rest, where he must confront the worst nightmare he could imagine. Walking away would have been easier. But as always, Reacher’s rule is: If you want me to stop, you’re going to have to make me. Praise for *Make Me “Lee Child’s Reacher series has hit Book No. 20 with a resounding peal of wisecracking glee. Everything about it, starting with Reacher’s nose for bad news, is as strong as ever. . . . The big guy’s definitely on the upswing. The guy who writes about him is too.”*—Janet Maslin,The New York Times “Superb . . . Child’s complete command of the story makes this thriller work brilliantly.”—Publishers Weekly(starred review) “The reigning champ ups the ante. . . . Yes, there’s breakneck action, but what gives this one its zing is the multilayered plot. . . . The beguiling Chang offers a new treat for series fans as well, and a surprise at the end will keep readers short of breath until the next installment begins.”—Booklist(starred review) “This series remains as compulsively readable as ever. Child is a master of pacing, stretching out the mystery through short chapters that give rise to bursts of well-choreographed violence. . . . Of course, the biggest strength is Reacher himself: impassive, analytical, secretly romantic, and relentlessly honorable. It’s impossible not to root for him. . . . Reacher is still going strong. Will satisfy fans—and newcomers, too.”—Kirkus Reviews Praise for #1 bestselling author Lee Child and his Jack Reacher series “Reacher is the stuff of myth. . . . One of this century’s most original, tantalizing pop-fiction heroes.”—The Washington Post “[A] feverishly thrilling series . . . with Child, you can always count on furious action.”—The Miami Herald**
Mình thấy series Jack Reacher của Lee Child (đã có đủ trên diễn đàn) dễ đọc (nghĩa là khá hấp dẫn, vừa có nhiều hành động (=đánh đấm), vừa có mưu mô (đầu óc, giải mã bí mật) và chuyện tình qua đường. Giải trí tốt sau những giờ lao động vất vả! Mình mới post thêm 5 truyện ngắn (novella) của Lee Child, trở lại quá khứ của Jack Reacher (thời niên thiếu, thời tại ngũ, v.v.)

Trước mình có đọc 1 truyện của tác giả này là 1 phát 1 mạng, và cả xem bản phim nữa, có Tom Cruise và diễn viên đóng Amy của Gone Girl đóng. Cảm nhận là thích xem phim hơn đọc truyện.
Google thì thấy có ebook rồi. NQK là chuyên gia ebook còn chọc mình chi rứa! Lần ấy đọc sách giấy, cũng lâu rồi. Cuốn sách khá dày nhưng đọc không cảm thấy dài lê thê.
