The Enemy Jack Reacher No 8 Lee Child Books
I have become a Jack Reacher fan after seeing the movie starring Tom Cruise. Until then I was unaware how many novels have been written by Lee Child with his unique character Jack Reacher. I have been able to purchase a number of these novels at a bargain price. I just finished reading “The Enemy: A Jack Reacher Novel” and in this one he is still in the Army as a criminal investigator. This 464 page thriller has Jack Reacher investigating the death of a General in a motel that appears to have been a heart attack while having sex, with someone who was not his wife.I never give away too much when writing novel reviews because it spoils it for the reader when too much information is given. This page turning novel has everything you might expect in a Jack Reacher novel and it has many twists and turns to make for an interesting read. By the time you are into the last few chapters everything begins to fall into place like in a picture puzzle.
If you are into the Jack Reacher novels you should check out this one. You can pick this book up at a bargain price on Amazon.

The Enemy Jack Reacher No 8 Lee Child Books Reviews
The Tom Cruise movie was enjoyable, but I didn't realize there were fans ticked-off that the dark-haired, 5-foot-7-inch actor portrayed the dirty-blond, 6-foot-5-inch hero until I stumbled upon a Lee Child interview in the October 2012 Playboy magazine. Heck, I didn't even know who Jack Reacher was, let alone that there were nineteen novels about the guy. Nineteen novels! Holy moly, I was clearly arriving late to the whole Jack Reacher phenomenon. One of the web sites listed them in the sequence they were first published as well as in chronological order. The 8th published (2004) novel, "The Enemy," is really the 1st Jack Reacher adventure. The 16th published (2011) work is Reacher's 2nd adventure. After that, the rest of the novels, beginning with "Killing Floor," are in chronological as well as published order. Go ahead. Go get some aspirin for the headache this is causing you. I'll wait.
Mr. Child has created an edgy hero who seems like an amalgamation of Mr. Spock and Dirty Harry. He's also quite the cynic, a loner, smart, and knows how to kick some serious butt when HE feels it's necessary. I'd bet dollars to donuts that most guys reading Mr. Child's books secretly wish they were Jack Reacher. Despite the film-noir tone, there is quite a bit of amusing wordplay and, surprisingly, no profanity in the thing. A great mystery is one in which the author effectively uses misdirection to keep the reader guessing. I've read more challenging mysteries, but there were enough surprises, action, and mounting tension to keep me glued to "The Enemy." Rarely, do I continue reading a book series, but in this case, "The Affair" (#16 but really #2) is the next novel on my list.
The Affair was such a much better book that this was a disappointment. I like to read a series in order but since The Affair arrived earlier and they are each while Reacher is in the Army, I decided to read The Affair first. Glad I did or I'd never have read this book. The part I enjoyed was about his mother and brother. There were parts that I didn't enjoy because it seemed out of his character--even within the book.
I checked out Lee Childs site and found that The Enemy was a prequel to his first book and decided that I would start with the prequels. I enjoyed the read. I find that often times the prequels, since they are actually written after the first books that they are better founded, better written. The writer develops the character over time and I was not proven wrong. It was well written. The characters were well developed. The conversations flowed and the ideas followed a logical sequence. There was no "say whaaa???" moments. It was just a good solid read.
Reacher was sort of a genius figuring out the solution. But two things I did not like a) Child spends way too much in some stories that have little to do with the main plot.
And b) and this is the worst, this book happens evidently in a time previous to some of the previous books. Some of the characters in this book had already died in previous books. I've been reading these books in order, only to find this reverse sequence.
The Enemy by Lee Child is a Jack Reacher novel that goes back to a time before Major Reacher left the army. He is a Military Police officer assigned to investigate the death of a two-star general in a motel in North Carolina. The case becomes complicated when the general’s briefcase is discovered missing and his wife’s body is found at another location. Reacher clashes with officers above him in the chain of commands and uses his brains and his physical strength to uncover serious corruption. I have enjoyed all of the Reacher novels and this was no exception.Romanov CurseRomanov QuestHimmler's Mistress Volume ThreeUltimate DutyGood Fortune's CurseAn Innocent Lie
This is my second time through the Jack Reacher series; The Enemy is without question his finest hour. Reacher's finest hour, and Lee Child's masterpiece.
Everything we love about Reacher is here his stoicism, his realism, his (almost) complete control of the world around him, with some violence and sex and Wild West justice thrown in to a terrific whodunnit.
But in The Enemy, Reacher is vulnerable. We see his weakness, his loss, and somewhere deep down, his loneliness. This book is the context for the whole series.
Kudos, Mr. Child, for this wonderful book. I'm left wondering who is the enemy?
