This is the 19th Jack Reacher novel. I've read all the others. If you haven't start now. You can <b>binge-read</b> them all in three weeks. But then you will be sad. Because you'll have to wait for a year for the next one. They are blissfully pedantic whodunnits. And also <b>seriously violent </b>thrillers....[Child] is so good. He makes literary writing seem orotund...He generates <b>relentless momentum.</b>..Child's dedication to <b>suspense</b>...approaches the<b> Hitchcockian</b>. Packed with arcane and fascinating detail...Child's almost trademarked and <b>seriously addictive</b> clipped prose and dialogue keeps Personal clipping along at<b> breakneck pace</b> with the tension<b> ratcheting up</b> satisfactorily to the inevitably bloody conclusion. Told in characteristic Child style - <b>fast</b> prose<b> smart</b> dialogue extraordinary detail - and with the hero in<b> full revenge mode</b>it throbs with energy from the start...a pleasure to welcome him back to [Lee Child's] native land. He's a dangerous man to know but every year I am desperate to renew my acquaintance with the one and only Jack Reacher....Child brings it all together brilliantly. And often tersely...It ends in crunching violence - but Reacher readers queueing up for their annual fix expect nothing less. <p><b>Consistently pulse-raising. . .an exhilarating ride. . .Personal wrests back the sheer gusto of the earlier novels; it's the best Reacher adventure in some considerable time.
