Sinossi
Jack Reacher è in viaggio. Seduto su un autobus Greyhound che attraversa l’America, si occupa dei suoi affari e dei suoi pensieri, senza una destinazione precisa da raggiungere e con tutto il tempo a disposizione per arrivarci. A pochi sedili di distanza, però, vede che un anziano signore sta per diventare una vittima. Si è addormentato mentre una voluminosa busta di soldi gli sfugge dalla tasca e un ragazzo dietro di lui aspetta solo il momento giusto per fregargliela. Non succederà. Il vecchio ringrazia Reacher. È spaventato, fragile e chiaramente in grossi guai, ciononostante rifiuta la sua offerta di accompagnarlo a casa. Perché? Reacher vuole vederci chiaro e andare fino in fondo a questa storia. E così scopre che l’uomo e sua moglie hanno commesso una serie di errori e che ora devono un sacco di soldi a delle persone molto cattive. Improvvisamente, Reacher si ritrova coinvolto in una brutale guerra tra gang rivali, ucraine e albanesi, che lottano per il controllo del territorio. Per uscirne, deve stare un passo avanti rispetto a cosche di strozzini, criminali e assassini che vogliono farlo fuori. Ad aiutarlo c’è una cameriera che sa più di quel che dice. Jack si mette in marcia per ripulire la città: un colpo grosso persino per lui, le probabilità di vittoria sono infinitesimali. Ma Reacher crede in un certo tipo di giustizia…

Recensioni
1.5Stars, rounded ^ to 2Stars - "It was OK". Actually, the novel was barely OKđ¤ The character, âJack Reacherâ, who appears in "Blue Moon", is definitely not the same character as the âJack Reacherâ who appeared in â#5, Echo Burningâ, â#11, Bad Luck and troubleâ, â#20, Make Meâ, or, in fact, in any of Leggi tutto
Cards on the table, Iâm a long term Reacher fan and Iâve read all of the books â but this one is a stinker, the worst book so far! I didnât much care for Night School (book #21) but Iâve enjoyed the last two, so I did have high hopes for this one. And it starts out quite well as Jack, in transit, spo Leggi tutto
When I clicked "I'm finished," my thought was possibly with Lee Child. He seems to be a diminishing writer with diminishing stories and a diminished character with Reacher. I listened to this and Scott Brick adds nothing, save further aggravation. 0 of 10 stars
Iâm a big fan of the Jack Reacher series and have read every book. Blue Moon takes Reacher to a town where the Albanians and Ukrainians are battling for turf. Reacher is helping out a senior couple who are involved with loan sharks from both gangs. Unfortunately, I couldnât get into this storyline. I Leggi tutto
Q: This is a random universe. Once in a blue moon things turn out just right. Like now. (c) Q: âI canât always win. One day Iâm going to lose. I know that. But not today. I know that, too.â (c) Q: No such thing as impossible. Merely a failure of planning. (c) Jack Reacher doing his damndest to find tro Leggi tutto
This book was alright. In my opinion, it was not the best of Reacher. I felt Lee Child was not enthusiastic while he wrote this book. There were phrases that were repeated extensively. Fans of the series will know how Reacher speaks, but certain expressions were used over and over more than usual. I Leggi tutto
When I finished Blue Moon I sat for a while and tried to rationalise why I enjoy this series so much. After all there is an awful lot of minutely described violence, which I usually do not enjoy at all. And the idea that Reacher could actually perform and win even half of the heroic battles he takes Leggi tutto
We readers have just lost one of our fictional but moral good guy heroes. The Reacher of past books--smart and tough with a very strong history of standing up for the innocent--disappears in this latest release. He does still save two people but how he goes about it is over the top and so unlikely a Leggi tutto
Turning to the latest Jack Reacher thriller, I was very eager to get my hands on it to see what Lee Child had concocted for his most versatile protagonist. The story opens in a nondescript American town that is run equally by Ukrainian and Albanian organized crime. There is a clear demarcation of te Leggi tutto
Worst Jack Reacher Novel Ever I have read every Lee Child Novel. I wait every year for the next Jack Reacher to come out. I love these books. This was a colossal fail. The premise of a company not renewing health insurance and nobody knew is ludicrous...people have prescriptionâs, Doctors appointment Leggi tutto
