I really liked Clear and Present Danger, but Patriot Games and Sum of All Fears sucked balls.

I liked Patriot Games the most of after Red October, but mostly because it involved killing Irishmen.

Have you read Red Storm Rising? I don't know how difficult it would be to make that into a movie, but it would be red hot with action.

I started The Hunt for Red October first and was kind of bored after the first couple of chapters. I switched to Red Storm Rising and it lit the fuse in the first chapter and flamed on for the rest of the book. Then I went back to Red October. When I saw the movie I was somewhat disappointed but it was good. I liked the way they changed from Russian to English, kind of a unique way to remove the subtitles.

Yes, I've read them all. Red Storm Rising was co-written with Larry Bond. I highly recommend Bond's books if you like the genre.

A good portion of what I did in the military was covered in the book. Almost like reading a tech maual about my job.

Perhaps one day Clancy will write a book about killing the French. I'm sure you'd really enjoy that.
