Bad Luck and Trouble.
Great read. Up there with Killing Floor.
I know what you mean about actors. I'm struggling to think of anyone who could do it hence the post.
Rest In Peace
Currently reading Bad Luck & Trouble ... not finished yet, so don't anyone dare say what happens.
Nasty has met Lee Child at a book signing and has a signed original.
We are fans, Nasty has the full collection

A the Grub said ..said I am a total fan of Lee Child .. (amongst others) .. latest book was fantastic ... he is improving with time unlike some of the genre who are dying as they further into the character development e.g. Patricia Cornwell.

Only been through a few of the "Reacher" books, Killing Floor, One Shot, and Die Trying, whats the first one?

Aargh, photos!
Killing Floor was the first one I believe
I have all the books too. Damn good writer
To every man upon this earth
Death cometh sooner or late
And how can a man die better
Than facing fearful odds
For the ashes of his fathers
And the temples of his Gods

I've read just about all Child's books and love them. As for who would play Reacher.........it needs to be someone tall and that can handle himself. Someone like Steven Segal, BUT NOT HIM.

Clive Owen....mmmmmmmmmm .....maybe> He certainly comes across with some who has horsepower in the brains as well as the biceps...
Youre the 10th couple I know who read Jack and if its the case-the 7th where the female gender read him first and recommend him to the male.LOL .. well truth be told .. Grub reads most of my books when I am finished ... he doesn't buy new books .. and we have almost all of my books in trade paperback ... cos I buy as soon as they are out ....
Clive is on the list...anymore contenders?
Just found this...

Man, you are too square.
Clive Owen would need to bulk up by about 100 lbs to even be close to how Reacher is supposed to look.
I can't remember what the first one's called, but it has his brother in it (well, as a corpse), and it's written in the first person.
I actually think the series is getting worse over time - too formulaic.
Also, the author does his research pretty well, but every so often he drops a real howler that drags you out out of the story. Spoils it a bit for me.
'Terminator'-era Arnie had the right physique and the right sort of ruthless, implacable, unstoppable nature, but that was 25-30 years ago. There would also have been the small problem of accent
Wherever I may roam
interesting but i think hugh jackman isnt big or solid enough to play a man over 6 foot and 200-250 lbs.same with clive owen.no actors that size spring to mind.
"I came into this game for the action, the excitement... go anywhere, travel light,... get in, get out,... wherever there's trouble, a man alone... Now they got the whole country sectioned off; you can't make a move without a form."
Paved roads are just another example of wasted tax payer dollars.
