DESCRIPTION:
Jack Ryan Has His Hands FullAgain! M. Lawrence Houseal This may very well be Tom Clancy's most complex and satisfying novel. It links the bought-and-sold world of politics, the house-of-cards nature of industrial outsourcing and the pervasive though subtle nature of national history and pride. At the intersection of those 3 elements is the dark and ominous spectre of geopolitical ambition realized by the projection of military force. An entirely believable cast of characters (including some old friends from previous Clancy adventures) breathes life into the complex plot that draws tighter, like a purse-string suture, until all the elements are within viewand the view is . One of the best This is one of the best Jack Ryan novels, it starts out what I feel is the heart of the Jack Ryan saga. About every year or so, I start with this book and read straight through - Debt of Honor, Executive Orders, Rainbow Six, Bear and the Dragon, Teeth of the Tiger, Dead or Alive, Locked On, Threat Vector, and now Command Authority.With the sad passing of Tom Clancy, this body of work may be now complete. If you want to experience a master at work - start with Debt of Honor and be ready to read (at least) Executive Orders - which picks up immediately where Debt of Honor leaves off. If you go through the whole progress. Debts of Honor come in many forms. Susan Cronk I wore out the original audio cassettes I had of this book and was glad to find the CDs. I like the tone of this book. It moves along well and the characters are true to nature of the whole series of books involving Jack Ryan. This is earlier in the life of the character and his work in government, but there would be a huge gap in his growth over the entire story line had this book not been written. It ends on a suspenseful note and is a great lead-in for the next book in the series, Even though I have listened through it many times, I don't seem to get tired of it. Clancy was a masterful writer.
Clancy plunges hero Jack Ryan into nonstop high adventure, as two seemingly unrelated occurrences being a chain of events that will stun the world. Called out of retirement to serve as National Security Advisor to the president, Ryan, with the help of CIA officers John Clark and Domingo Chavez, must prepare the untested president to meet the challenges of a new world order.
