content: I have been reading Tom Clancy for a really long time......I have enjoyed all of the 45 to 50 books I have read and hope to continue to to follow the exploits of Ryan,Clark, &Chavez into a lot more. I have read Net Force, OP Center, Power Play, Splinter Cell, End War Series,Ghost Reckon and just today picked up THREAT VECTOR..........So I am in seventh heaven. I think that his grasp of what his fans look for and require in action books is captured completely in the JACK Ryan series. I a hard pressed to tell my friends which book is better than the other With these books,,,,,Rainbow Six, WIthout REmorse, The Hunt for Red October, The Teeth of the TIger ,,,,just to name my most favorite few. I have read all of W.E.B Griffin books and I put him on a par with CLancy ,,,,,,,,but they both have what I want in a book,action,mystery,intrigue,plot within plot keeps the pages turning and me happy,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,poppie927
