Lee Child is the pen name of James Dover Grant, a British author best known for his internationally bestselling thriller series featuring Jack Reacher, a former US Army military policeman turned wandering lone-wolf vigilante. For first-time readers, the recommended order is publication order, beginning with Killing Floor (1997). While several novels are prequels set during Reacher's army career, reading in publication sequence preserves the gradual reveal of his backstory and character evolution.
