It was too long. I didn’t think I would ever finish it.
While far from the best of Clancy’s books, it is an especially appropriate read in today’s world, and the current “leadership” of the U.S. It shows how a coward with power and a bunch of war monger advisers could easily destroy our country with their lack of intelligence and ability to reason, or even listen to reason. The main difference in the book and reality today is that in the book, the Russian leader has some common sense.
Too much detail and “fleshing out” of story line.
I love Tom Clancy books and movies.
Too much technical information which didn’t contribute much to the story but took waaaaay toooooo many pages to get through.
One of the best I have ever read
Read it the first time and it seemed kind of slow. I read it again a few months later and enjoyed it so much.
One of Clancey’s best. More applicable today with the terrorism threat than when he wrote it. Great read!
Great book
Clancy. What more is there to say?
Loved
Clancy’s books are a great read.
A well written story, very detailed (as Clancy normally is). Much better than the movie. Movie is set in a different time frame than the book, but still very good story. I highly recommend it.
I love Tom Clancy’s writing and Jack Ryan is probably his best character. Every one of his books featuring him is outstanding and this one is no exception.
With all Tom Clancy approved novels…they are great.. I have read them all… they are current and energetic with real characters I have been followining from book one. I can hardly wait for the next in the series…I hope ther is one in the series so I can jumpo on that too.
Read this years ago. Loved it!!
read this book years ago found it is still entertaining
Great.
Fast moving, intrigue, some places were funny.
A typical action-paced Tom Clancy book in the Jack Ryan series. A little dated from current events but still a good read.
