Resumen del Editor

A rogue nuclear Russian submarine is steaming toward the East Coast of the United States. For President Jack Ryan, memories of past events may seem stunningly vivid, but the dangers are terrifyingly real in the latest entry in this #1 New York Times bestselling series.

US intelligence is reporting turmoil in the Russian navy. Their deadliest submarine, the Belgorod, has unexpectedly launched, and taken along with it a long list of questions. Who authorized the departure? What mission is it on? And, most disturbing of all, what weapons do the giant doors on the sub’s bow hide?

It's been four decades since a similar incident with the Soviet sub, Red October, ended happily, thanks to a young CIA analyst named Jack Ryan.

Now, President Jack Ryan finds himself with fleets of ships, squadrons of jets, and teams of SEALs at his command, but what he doesn’t have is insight into the plans of the Belgorod’s commander. It falls to a younger generation of Ryans to do the dangerous work that will reveal that information.

But there’s always a price to be paid. When the final moments tick away, will Jack Ryan have to choose between the safety of his country and the safety of his child?

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Forty years after Tom Clancy’s genre defining debut novel, The Hunt for Red October, a new Russian submarine is moving west… Gripping and powerful, Act of Defiance is Andrews and Wilson at their best! A fitting tribute to the master. Tom Clancy would be proud."—Jack Carr, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Only the Dead

"Welcome back to Tom Clancy's world, where familiar and new characters untangle a conspiracy that threatens to light the world on fire. Andrews and Wilson pack in enough action for three books."—Larry Bond, New York Times bestselling author of Arctic Gambit

“I expected a lot from Navy veterans Andrews and Wilson—and they exceeded every expectation! Tom Clancy Act of Defiance is a remarkable tale of political intrigue and high-seas adventure. Jack Ryan and friends are in capable hands.”—Marc Cameron, New York Times bestselling author of Tom Clancy Command and Control

WELL DONE, ANDREWS & WILSON

I also was disappointed with prior novels submitted by other ghost writers. When I learned that A&W would give it a shot, as I have read their Tier 1, Valor, and Shepherd series. I hope for the best, not disappointed. WELL DONE A&W…..LZ

Tom Clancy would be proud!

andrews and Wilson deliver an amazing story no woke bs like the last few entries that went under the Tom clancy name just a true patriotic story of those who love this country and those that defend it keeps you on your toes the entire book

Classic Clancy

Both the story and the way it was told are classic Clancy. Removed one star for factual inaccuracy (including Scott Brick, who should have caught the errors!). Playing with the timeline is one thing, but making Katie and Kyle twins? That was either a big oops or an intentional change that served no purpose. And the Red October story had already been leaked.

Outrageous Fun

If you love Hunt for Red October this book is a mystery read. Everything you want is in this book.

I know kids grow up fast, but sandbox is now a lieutenant commander. How long has Jack been president for?

I’m about two hours in I really hope this isn’t a girl power story. So far it’s fine. I still have trouble with the time. And when the sandbox and Kyle become twins

Wow! Clancy novels are back!!

This was needed! I am so thrilled to have a proper length Tom Clancy book. They have bee too short and lacking details since his passing. This story brought back so many found memories of the Jack Ryan world. Keep it up!!

the continuation of characters

I love the Ryan books. The first book I read was Red October. I have read every book in the series. The plot here was an interesting parallel plot to Red October. An interesting way to carry on the saga to a new generation. look forward to the next book.

17 Hours of Classic Clancy

Reminiscent of the old books. Engaging edge-of-your-seat listening. Great job, 10/10.

WOW!!

great way to tell a story that connects the entire jack ryan story. loved it!

Fantastic! Best Entry in a Long Time!!

No spoilers. Exceptionally done
To build on a classic is so risky, but this is extremely well done and stands on its own. This is the first in the series I’ve I’ve completed straight through in a very long time.
I am a Clancy and JRU fanboy and appreciated every nod to The Hunt for Red October.

I am satisfied with the timeline. You can’t manage a juggernaut series like the Jack Ryan Universe without out some flexibility and this hold up.

Scott Brick nailed it.


Thanks to everyone at JRE and Rubicon for being brave enough to take this chance.
Here’s to the franchise! 👍👍

Give me a ping Vasili… one ping only, please.
