Jack Reacher fans will be thrilled to hear that author Lee Child will be joining us for a webchat on Wednesday (16 November) evening between 9 and 10pm.

Lee penned his first novel (Killing Floor) at the age of 40 after his career at Granada Television came to an end. Since then Jack Reacher has become a global phenomena with 21 books published and two films with Tom Cruise taking the leading role. This month the latest film Never Go Back, is on general release and the 21st book, Night School, has just been published.

Come and chat to Lee and ask him all your burning questions on Wednesday (16 November) between 9 and 10pm. Everyone who joins will be entered into a draw to win a SIGNED copy of Jack Reacher: Night School.

Lee , Can I put to you the questions from Mumsnet HQ that we always put to our authors?

Which childhood book most inspired you?

What was the last book you gave someone as a gift?

What was the best book you have recently read?

And finally can you describe the room where you write your novels?

Any more for any more? Lee started early as there were so many advance questions so we'll give you another couple of minutes and then wrap up. Any more burning questions that Lee hasn't answered?

We're sorry if you missed out at the end by us finishing before 10pm. As there were so many questions before the webchat started, we'd asked Lee to join us a bit early to get through some of the advance ones, so by 9pm we'd already worked him quite hard! There was a lull at 9.45-ish so we thought we'd offer to close early. We think he did a great job answering so many and he really enjoyed it - and 'fessed he'd been on mumsnet a few times before and finds it hilarious Smile Thanks to all those who joined the webchat.

Here's a pic of Lee in action - wonder which question he's pondering over here...
