Lee Child on the joys of legal marijuana and a run in with Weinstein

After selling $4.6 billion worth of books and buying a Renoir with Hollywood money, the Jack Reacher creator is putting his pen down but not without the last word.

After 25 years, more than 200 million books sold, countless corpses and hundreds of thousands of clipped sentences, thriller writer Lee Child is retiring.

The new Jack Reacher novel he is writing, which he began on September 1, just like he has every year since 1995, will be his last. His younger brother Andrew, who is a co-author on the current novel and has shared the credits with Lee on three Reacher books so far, will take over the saga from now on. Lee is holstering his typing fingers.
