Die Trying

Jack Reacher, Book 2

De: Lee Child

Narrado por: Johnathan McClain

The bestselling novel featuring the “wonderfully epic hero” (People) who inspired the hit film Jack Reacher.

Jack Reacher is an innocent bystander when he witnesses a woman being kidnapped off a Chicago street in broad daylight. In the wrong place at the wrong time, he’s kidnapped with her. Chained together, locked in the back of a stifling van, and racing across America to an unknown destination for an unknown purpose, they’re at the mercy of a group of men demanding an impossible ransom. Because this mysterious woman is worth more than Reacher ever suspected. Now he has to save them both—from the inside out—or die trying.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Tough, elegant, and thoughtful.”—Robert B. Parker

“A riveting thriller, brought to life with well-observed detail and paced with taut, evocative prose. It’s a winner.”—Greg Iles

“A thoroughly engrossing tale told by an author who doesn’t miss a beat.” —Rocky Mountain News

“Child presents his tense, action-packed adventure in vivid prose, as lean and capable as his central character. Jack Reacher is not merely a terrific hero; he sets a new standard.”—Tom Savage

“Opens with a bang.”—Chicago Tribune

“A literate scenario-cum-thriller.”—The Philadelphia Inquirer

“Lee Child’s knowledge of the modern military and its combat tactics amazed me. A chilling and all-too realistic story, and a damn good book.”—Steve Thayer

“[A] redoubtable yet romantic hero…[a] fast-paced misadventure...Cunning and explosive, it's a thumping good read.”—Time Out

“Furiously suspenseful.”—Kirkus Reviews

Liked it. Didn’t love it.

This is my probably 4th time through the series. I watch the new amazon prime series and got me back into it again. I can’t imagine them using this book for season 2. I guess time will tell

An entertaining, action filled adventure

Die Trying is an action filled book that will keep you on your toes. This is the second Jack Reacher book, and while it stretches believability at times, it’s a great, entertaining story. I do have to wonder about everything the heroine does with her bad knee especially after it gets abused rather dramatically in one scene. But hey, if you’re looking for realism, I don’t think this is the genre for you.

The narrator of the audiobook does a terrific job with the story and is well suited to the job.

the series is great but...

i watched a Jack Reacher tv series recently and have that character in my mind. made this performer a little week. it took a little more willing suspension of disbelief for me but a great story.

Good action pack book

I have just started reading Jack Reacher books, so this is my second one. It was good, action packed and kept moving the whole time. I enjoyed it.

Jack Reacher never disappoints!

Really, really good book all the way to the end.
can't wait for the next one.
I was not as pleased with this reader as I am with Dick Hill.
