This book can be read without having read any of the other jack reacher books. I rated a four because I found the book to be slightly drawn out and slow paced. The ending was thrilling but inconclusive, it left me hanging wondering what had really happened (don't want to give too much away!). I do want to read more books by lee child... I think I'll start with the first of the jack reacher series :) Jack Reacher is back.The countdown has begun.

Reading these books out of sequence isn't as much of an issue as I thought it would be. Good story.
