The order is obvious. The books are not: the seasons run one, eleven, seven, thirteen, twenty.
The watching order is completely obvious: seasons one, two, three, four, then the spin-off. What is not obvious is the reading order, because the show picks a different Lee Child novel every season with no pattern at all.
Seen some of these already? Tap the circles to tick them off. The full list below fills in as you go.
Eight episodes adapting Killing Floor, which happens to be the first novel. That is the only time the season number and the book number line up.
Jumps to the eleventh novel, Bad Luck and Trouble, which is where the 110th unit and Frances Neagley come from. It needs nothing from the books in between.
Back to the seventh novel, Persuader. If you are reading along, this is where you find out that guessing the next book from the last one does not work.
The thirteenth novel, Gone Tomorrow. Three episodes on 12 August 2026 and then one a week, finishing on 16 September.
Eight episodes released together on 16 September 2026. It follows the second season, which is where Frances Neagley and the 110th come from, so watch that first and the rest of Reacher is optional.
Then what? A fifth season of Reacher is confirmed and takes the twentieth novel, Make Me, with no date announced. Neagley has not been renewed. The two Tom Cruise films are a separate adaptation that stopped in 2016 and connect to none of it.
A suggested way in, not an official one. The full list is below: tick anything off in either place.
Your progress is saved on this device automatically. The code below takes a copy out and puts it back. Moving a whole list onto a device that has nothing on it yet is part of the subscription.
The code holds only this franchise. The link opens the tracker with your progress already filled in, good for showing someone where you're at. The image is a picture you can keep anywhere: scan the code on it with a phone, or drag the file back in below.
Every franchise you have touched, in one code.
Scan it with another device's camera, or paste the code in below. It never leaves your browser.
This reads the progress stored inside the picture, so nothing has to be retyped. If the image has been through a messaging app it may have been re-encoded and lost that: scan the code on it instead, or copy the code printed along the bottom.
Takes either kind of code. A single franchise code replaces that franchise, on any device. An everything code merges by default, so nothing you have ticked on this device is lost. Putting a whole list onto a device that has nothing on it yet is the part an account pays for.
Read only. This never changes what you have saved, and nothing leaves your browser. The code has to be their code for this same franchise: codes do not carry a name, so one from somewhere else may not be recognised as wrong.
Your email is confirmed and your account is ready. Everything you tick is saved on this device, as it always was.
Part of the subscription.
Your SagaList account.
Nothing else happens until you follow the link. If it has not arrived in a few minutes, look in your spam folder and search for SagaList. It is sent from a no-reply address on our own domain, so there is nothing to reply to.
Both addresses get an email: the new one to confirm it, and the old one so that nobody can move your account without you knowing. Nothing changes until you follow the link.
Signing out leaves everything you have ticked on this device exactly where it is. It only stops it syncing.
This removes your account, your email address, and the progress stored on our side. It cannot be undone and we cannot get it back for you.
This stops your subscription too. It is cancelled at Stripe in the same step, so nothing more is charged. The rest of this month is not refunded and you will not be able to use it, so cancel from Manage or cancel and delete later if you would rather keep it.
