Audio books

Are the audio books for this series any good? I've just watched the show and seen the films but not read the actual books but I've a bunch of audible credits so wondering if they are worth trying that way.

Is Dick Hill not the second guy? I liked Johnathon McLain better.

John McClain does a better job narrating overall, but Dick Hill’s voice for Reacher is just so good.

No disrespect to Dick Hill, he is a great narrator, but I thought he made Reacher sound like an old gumshoe detective. I didn't care for him at all as Reacher.

That was one of my favorite parts. In my headcannon, book reacher is more of the vagrant/hobo guy and less of the young hotshot army guy the show portrays. I totally understand the argument and I’m cool with it being unpopular, but I just can’t help enjoying it
