GREAT SERIES

February 5, 2016

I have become a fan of Diane Capri. I have been a fan of Lee Childs and have read all the Jack Reacher novels. When I got my first "In Search Of Jack Reacher" book I wasn't sure it would like up to my expectations or Lee Child's endorsement but IT DID. I am now waiting for the next book in the series from Diane Capri.

What I find most enjoyable about this series is the fact that while I know the background story of Jack Reacher activities, the author still manages to keep me in suspense and surprises me with her own twists in her books plot. I also love the development of the characters in her book and she even adds to the Jack Reacher character development.

Disappointed

July 30, 2016

The reason for the 3 stars is loving the Jack Reacher books so much, I had hoped to see more of him in these books than the very, very occasional reference to a tall bulky man standing on the shadows of a doorway. Will probably not buy more of Diane Capri's Reacher books.

Getting to know Jack

November 12, 2016

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

Who doesn't love Lee Child's anti-hero, Jack Reacher? So how then could you not love Diane Capri's "Hunt for Jack Reacher" series, and FBI agents Otto and Gaspar, tasked with finding a shadowy legend who is intent on not being found. I love the inside-out perspective I get from reading these books; it makes me want to go back and read the Reacher novels all over again, to double check the references between the two. I simply can't get enough about Jack. I'm so glad I found this series; can't wait to read the next one.

Ok book, short under 200 pages never comes to any conclusion or maybe it did but very convoluted. If you are bored out of your skull or stuck in an airport or elevator then yeah go ahead and read this. Other than those scenarios I would pass on this.

Disappointing writer

August 1, 2019

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

I bought the book because I love the Jack Reacher series - and Lee Child actually recommends this author, so I expected good writing. My mistake (Lee, WHAT WERE YOU THINKING??) If I were to choose only one adjective to describe this novel, then it would probably be "wooden". The story drags, the characters fail to come alive, the dialogue often seems to go nowhere and the style is... well, practically non-existent (I think she was going for "lean and spare", but overdid it). Seriously disappointing. I could not bring myself to finish it, which is very rare. PS. And I am glad Reacher himself did not make an appearance - it would be painful to see him described in this awkward prose.

One Baby Step Closer

I truly enjoyed this latest book in the Find Jack Reacher series. I have read them all as well as all of Lee Childs books and look forward to new issues with both authors. While Lee Child has more flexibility with his plots, there is a lot to be said for the theme based series by Diane Capri. You know the two main characters will provide a few chuckles and you are constantly rooting for them to actually amke some progress in their search. I very much applauded Otto's beginnings of rebellion in this novel. I'm sure, had it been me, it would have happened a couple of books ago. It also opens the door for interesting twists down the road. Waiting for the next one, fairly patiently

New slant on our hero, Reacher

November 3, 2016

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

Great idea for a book series. I started at #4 so have to go back to start. Some have expressed disappointment as this series has nothing to do with Our hero other than chasing an accused Reacher and his reputation and not quite catching up but clearing him by finding the truth. In the meantime, a new protagonistis introduced who just so happens to be of the fairer sex and smart as a whip! Looking forward to reading from the beginning. My compliments to Ms. Capri

Are the FBI that dumb?

November 5, 2015

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

My only problem with the two FBI agents is that of all the people that Jack Reacher has interacted with, and helped, they can't find more than a couple people that have anything good to say about him. They still act like they're chasing a master criminal or a terrorist. If FBI are big on profiling why can't these two get his profile even close?

Little to recommend it

November 2, 2016

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

I don't think I've ever read a book about another author's characters before. An interesting premise, I suppose, if the book hadn't been so terminally boring. Most of the story was spent driving or flying from one boring place to another. Little action involved the main characters, none of whom could hold a candle to the "real" Reacher brothers. I think I'll pass on the rest of the series.

Best yet!

My favorite book in the Hunt for Jack Reacher series so far. I loved better getting to know FBI Agent Kim Otto. I found her logic and reasoning fascinating as she tries to gather information on Jack Reacher for her boss. I didn't find myself missing her partner Gaspar very much. I was sad as I came to the end of the book knowing that I will have to wait until the next book is published to be immersed in Otto and Gaspar's world again. If you love the Jack Reacher books, give this series a try. You won't be sorry.
