Title: jarring drivel
Review: The Bear and the Dragon take Clancy's stock players into new positions of power. Clancy however has gone far beyond any of his previous works in his jarring sophomoric political and philosophical drivel. The story line is constantly slowed down by his political meanderings which have absolutely nothing to do with his story . The book could easily be half as long and twice as readable. Even if you try to discount these meanderings they are so jarring and inappropriate that you are quickly torn from the narrative and feel you have just listened to a bad political commercial. If Clancy was not already successful this book would not be published as it stands. Read it as your own risk.
