How to make an action hero

Lee Child and Dr Andy Martin.

Bestselling author Lee Child’s Jack Reacher books are the most borrowed titles in Australian libraries! And one man knows how he does it.
For six months Cambridge lecturer Dr Andy Martin shadowed Lee to find out of what it takes to make fiction’s hottest hero hit the page running, resulting in his book Reacher Said Nothing: Lee Child and the Making of Make Me.
Calling all Jack Reacher fans! Don’t miss out as Dr Martin lifts the lid on the hidden workaday life of one of the world’s most popular authors.
Joining Dr Martin is James Phelan, the award-winning author of thrillers, young adult and children’s books including Fox Hunt and The Last 13 series.
In this special event, Andy and James talk about all things Lee Child, Jack Reacher, and thrillers – a must for any fans of the genre – at Emerald Library on Saturday 2 September from 1-2pm.
This event is free to attend but bookings are essential at www.tinyurl.com/cclcevents or phone the Library on 5949 4600.
