4. Jack Reacher: One Shot -- I mistakenly thought this was the first Reacher book, probably because it's the one that the first Tom Cruise movie was based on.
5. Jack Reacher: Killing Floor -- this one *is* the first Reacher book, and is what the TV series was based on.
6. Jack Reacher: Die Trying -- wasn't quite as enjoyable as the other two, perhaps because I struggle to form pictures in my head, but still a good read.
Contrary to my last post, I'm now moving on to The Colour of Magic by Pratchett.

7. Jack Reacher: Bad Luck and Trouble -- wot the upcoming season 2 on TV is based on. Very good, gripping from start to finish.And yes, I gave up on The Colour of Magic. That writing style is just impenetrable -- I'll start on a different Pratchett book at some point, but I've moved on to
Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin now.
