Title: Clancy slippage
Review: I have all of Clancy's books and have been a fan since his first, the genre classic "Hunt for Red October." He hit a peak with "The Bear and the Dragon," and his works since "Bear" have shown a slow decline in quality. "Teeth of the Tiger" is almost a caricature of a Clancy novel. His development of the one-dimensional characters is heavy-handed and even his description of action sequences--long a Clancy strong suit--is lacking the force and eloquence of his previous work.I'm currently re-reading "Red Storm Rising." The distinction between the quality of that earlier work and "Teeth" is striking. As a Clancy fan, I come not to bury him but to praise him--his earlier work, at least--and hope that he can return to that level of writing in the future.
