Reece, like many action heroes, has many enemies, so he is sent into the flood again, this time in a freezing Siberian island, in a “First Blood” style game of cat and mouse with the main antagonists.Īn avid reader himself, Carr said some of his inspiration came from Richard Connell’s “The Most Dangerous Game” and David Morrell’s “First Blood.” That is all I will spoil, but most recently, Reece is an in and out civilian, doing contractor work for the U.S. The series is about James Reece, a SEAL whose unit is killed in Afghanistan under mysterious circumstances, with him being the sole survivor, or a loose end. A sequel, “True Believer” followed in 2019, and recently, Carr released the latest in the series, “Savage Son.” The first book, titled “The Terminal List” was released in 2018, but it wasn’t until a couple months ago that I finally sat down and read (well listened) and burned through it in a week or so. I have been longing for a proper series to read to get my action fix, and it comes by way of former Navy SEAL turned writer Jack Carr’s “James Reece” series.
“Jack Reacher,” that sort of thing, are littered everywhere.Ī rarity though is actually *good* action books- smart stories that are a step above what most I have read have leaned into headscratching cheesiness (looking at you Lee Child’s “Jack Reacher’”). When it comes to novels, ones of the action genre are easy to find.
