I devour each new Reacher book, each year. Though there was one thing I had completely missed. I recently read an article that pointed out some of Mr. Child's books are written in the first person. Others in the third.
My take on not noticing this isn't because I'm under-observant. One is allowed to self-determine such traits, no?
I believe the reason I missed such an obvious style change is that Lee Child is just such a damn good writer that he gets me hooked from the start.
For some unknown reason, I prefer his books that are set in America more than the European ones. Even though he is British, he surely nails down the scene here.
