A Publishers Weekly review stated, "Though Child ... is at his best in the longer entries, this volume demonstrates what his fans already know: he’s a born storyteller and an astute observer." Kirkus Reviews commented, "...the short form is refreshing after the misfire of Child's last novel, in which the violence became unpleasant and the tone curdled. No such problem here. And it’s encouraging that the novella Too Much Time, which leads into the next Reacher novel, feels like a return to form. These are tasty appetizers that will hopefully lead to a satisfying entree." Writing for the Evening Standard, Mark Sanderson stated, "...Lee Child, like his creation, always knows exactly what he’s doing — and he does it well. Time in his company is never wasted."
