I love this book. It was full of Clancy's trademark political and military knowledge. He certainly researched his books very well. I rated 4 stars because it was so steeped in tech language and jargon that it literally took me six months to read it. This one was a great thriller, though. Check it out!now i am hooked. This was such a great, easy and creative book. i was hooked after the first page. The characters were easy to fall in love with and follow, along with the story. the author made the mental visions so easy and vivid of the surroundings and the characters actions felt so real.i would highly recommend this author and this book.
My uncle gave me this book and I owned it for years but finally gave it away. I would give it 5 stars but I don't like Tom Clancy.
This book is part of the Jack Ryan series but it can be read as a stand alone. A rape and murder is committed on a boat that is in the open seas. It is discovered and puts into motion a series of events that will find the United States initiating a strike against the drug cartel who is the opposition in the war on drugs.I loved the concept of this novel and I believe that everyone would too. Who cannot get behind the idea of a nation trying to protect its citizens and strike a blow against the

Seven stars******* if I could. Exciting, big plot, some poetic justice due and received. A big plot where, the author knows everyone-they all have 'bios.' Many heroes and villains, John Clark being one of the main good guys, and my favorite, he walks the talk. The nice thing about 'discovering' Tom Clancy is his huge body of work, long involved novels. Looking forward to the next one. This is a favorite
An old book with a new cover.Hunt for Red October broke a mold and was an intriguing book. The first fiction published by Naval Institute Press. The second was Flight of the Intruder.While Clancy wrote fast-paced action stories well, his facts left a lot to be desired especially after the technical expertise of Hunt. He started buying into the narrative of the military PAO office rather than the people on the ground. His descriptions of Colombia are rather poor. Also, he never really understood
