Reviews
An enticing snack-like book, full of jaunty tales, twists and violence . . . It is an entertaining read and shows why Child has such a strong following., Child gleefully toys with readers' expectations, mirroring his duplicitous characters as he performs a series of satisfying bait-and-switches. . . . These stories prove that Child has more to offer than the head-splitting exploits of his most popular action hero., For three decades, year in and year out, Lee Child has been the best thriller writer in the world. No question., It's nice to see [Child] spread his wings by stepping inside these many different characters and working his literary magic., This is a great summer read. . . . There are potentially twenty full-length novels here, or forty hours of screenplays, but you'll romp through them in a happy afternoon., The stories are quirky, entertaining, and often frankly a lot of fun. . . . Not a single Jack Reacher story or doppelganger in here, that's true--and yet maybe this is the collection of stories that Reacher might carry with him next time he sticks out a thumb., Stories about cops, hired killers, FBI agents, good people, and very bad people, written in Child's usual unadorned, minimalist prose style . . . Child's many fans won't think twice before picking this one up, but the book might also serve to introduce, to people who prefer short fiction, this deservedly popular novelist.

Synopsis
You know Jack Reacher. Now meet twenty more heroes and heavies from the brilliant mind of legendary crime author Lee Child. A drug-dealing hit man feels that he must unburden his fears and guilt to a stranger in "Ten Keys." A rookie cop in "Normal in Every Way" is assigned to the department's file room, where he makes connections to historic dates that could lead to solving crimes. A methodical bodyguard quits his job when he's outsmarted. A military mission is planned to perfection. A potential worker for the Manhattan Project is carefully surveilled by an FBI agent. A killer preys on other killers. Taken together, these stories are a riotous calamity of criminals and crime fighters; individually, they are expertly crafted, piercing tales that hit hard enough to leave a mark. These twenty intriguing, thrilling, and rapid-fire fictions are intimate portraits of humanity at its best and worst, sure to please new and longtime fans of Child and to illuminate a side of the author's work unknown to Reacher devotees. Featuring a colorful new introduction from the author, the collection stands as the first book written entirely by Child in four years., A USA Today bestseller Pulse-pounding short stories from the author Michael Connelly calls "the best thriller writer in the world."

    Item arrived as described. Seller took great care to ensure packaging was sufficient to protect hard covers in shipping. Greatly appreciate their flexibility with accepting my offers. Books condition, value and quality are all excellent. Seller assured cancelation and refund but had to contact back because they continued to process and NOT refund or cancel.

    I'm sorry, but there was no mention of a cancellation and refund. You were sent the five like new books at the prices we agreed to so this has got to be a mistake. Thanks and take care.

    I apologize. Per our messages I am adding a comment to clarify that everything pertaining to cancellation was not relevant to this order. The order was packaged with extreme care and the item arrived in impeccable condition. I greatly appreciate the care given and will definitely purchase again. Seller was great with communication and responded to offers and messages promptly.

    Can’t leave negative feedback for this seller for some odd reason;Don’t like to leave a negative review nor wasn’t going to until seller insisted I do;He got all bent out of shape when I reminded him to ship card after 4 days of payment sent;Seller has wrong attitude;Blames everyone else including me for his carelessness;He says this happens all the time but still blames everyone else;DON’T SELL ON EBAY IF YOU CAN’T SHIP ON TIME & TREAT YOUR CUSTOMERS LIKE THIS!!

    Thank you for your kind words. Apparently, because you have a tendency to leave negative feedback and shred every seller on here, jordanseveryday, eBay has limited your ability to disparage sellers anymore. When you bought this card on 4/15 eBay gave you a delivery date of 4/24 (arriving early, by the way) so I have no clue why you are this angry. If you are a buyer looking to do business with us, please contact me for a copy of this buyer's messages and you will see true lunacy.
