I've read every Reacher book out there, and eagerly await the next one. But give me a break! This was an insult to Lee Child's many fans.At 13 Reacher talks and acts like an adult, drinks black coffee so strong he makes his own pot after the rest of the family drinks their weaker version, has the fighting  skills of a Marine veteran, and makes improvised weapons from electrical cable. Then he whips the local bully, breaking his ribs, and skillfully breaking his arm so that he can draw the kid's entire family to the hospital and away from home. Next he solves a problem military authorities can't, and when he give orders a Marine officer and two investigators immediately comply. All at age 13!To be honest, after reading this, I'm not sure I'll continue the series.
