Entertaining.However, if you have an attention span that can persevere past endless twelve word sentences, you might find this choppy, to say the least.

This was quite good -- a series I can reach for when I can't find anything that's screaming "read me!"Killing Floor is a fast-paced, hard-boiled read. Lee Child's style took of bit of getting used to - the prose is tense and sparse. Once you get going, though, the story moves quickly, with a whole...

The Jack Reacher series is a lot different than I expected. It turns out Killing Floor is actually my style of read. I assumed these books would be more military in nature, but Killing Floor is a crime thriller that just happens to star an ex-military cop. I'm now wondering if the Stephen Hunter boo...

My husband listened to this as an audiobook and recommended it.

KILLING FLOOR was Lee Child’s debut novel, featuring Jack Reacher, the ex-military police protagonist created by him. I had read Child’s THE ENEMY earlier, and had liked what I had read. Although there was nothing out of ordinary in the book, but it had pace, and was filled with thrill, suspense and...
One Book Away From an Episode of Hoarders
I was tempted to give this five stars. I liked this enough where I started hunting for #2 before I finished it. There's just something... I can't put my finger on what... that made me pick the four star rating. I liked it. I liked it, A LOT but, I just didn't LOVE it and I'm not sure why.
