THREE MORE JACK REACHER NOVELLAS Too Much Time, Small Wars, Not a Drill, and Bonus Jack Reacher Stories

Dick Hill narrates this trio of novellas, as well as assorted short stories, with Jack Reacher at the center. Formerly in the Army's military police, Reacher is now a solitary man whose spartan and transient existence leads to surprising adventures. Hill does a solid job throughout, remaining consistent with Reacher's signature calm voice and becoming more emotional with some of the minor characters Reacher encounters. In one story, Reacher meets a bunch of hikers, men and women, who are given excitable tones that fit the storyline. The dialogue-heavy stories rely less on action than other Childs works. The reliable Hill sets the tone with his steady portrayal of the resourceful hero. M.B. © AudioFile 2017, Portland, Maine [Published: JULY 2017]
