    "Exactly what you expect from Clancy"
    Where does Locked On rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

    It's a great book that keeps you entertained.


    What other book might you compare Locked On to and why?

    Most of Clancy's other books. Especially his newer books.


    Which scene was your favorite?

    The final firefight in Soviet Russia.


    Any additional comments?

    Clancy does a great job of not only wrapping up some story lines and he leaves a few open for the next Jack Ryan book. Taking the direction of developing Jack Ryan Jr. is turning into a good one.

    Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

    Nope. Clancy has


    Would you ever listen to anything by Tom Clancy and Mark Greaney again?

    I said after the last book that I would not, but look at me now.


    Which scene was your favorite?

    The opening.


    If this book were a movie would you go see it?

    No.


    Any additional comments?

    Wishing for the old Clancy.

    Story
    "Jack Jr. Takes Charge"

    Jack Ryan, Jr. is going to make sure that the Jack Ryan legend lives on. Locked On passes the torch from father to son. While Jack Sr. appears in the book, it is only a cameo role. The spotlight is on Jack Jr. as he becomes an integral part of The Campus. He still has a lot to learn from John Clark and the rest of the campus crew but he is on his way to establishing his own character and identity separate from his dad. The narration was outstanding bringing each of the characters to life. At times the technical descriptions were a little tedious and the ending was a little incomplete and not quite satisfying but certainly provided the setting for the next adventure of Jack Jr. No book is perfect and this was a very good book. With Jack Jr's father as POTUS, his girlfriend established (more or less) and Clark, Ding and Dom there to get him through the tough times, I hope the wait for the next installment is not too far off.

    "Locked On delivers!"
    Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

    For those who enjoy action and suspense, this book delivers both in a way that marries the story to the current geo-political reality of our times. Tom Clancy never fails to deliver and Lou Diamond Phillips reads it beautifully.


    What did you like best about this story?

    The action and the characters I've come to


    What does Lou Diamond Phillips bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

    He reads it as I would in my own head, which makes this question tricky to answer. For me, his acting ability helps him bring the characters to life in a believeable, genuine way.


    Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

    It was extremely entertaining and something I was anxious to resume everytime I had to pause.


    Any additional comments?

    Audible's audiobooks are a great way to enhance the time one must spend on the more mundane activities of life maintenance, and a fantastic travel companion on short or long trips.

    "Tom Clancy Continues"
    Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

    Yes, if you like to follow the on-going saga of The Ryans.


    What other book might you compare Locked On to and why?

    Greaney's Grey Man series is similar. If you had read both authors, Greaney's influence was noticable.


    What three words best describe Lou Diamond Phillips’s voice?

    OK, not geat


    Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

    It certainly kept my interest and of course set up the story line for the next book.


    Any additional comments?

    Looking forward to both Clancy's and Greaney's next books.

    The story is very fast paced and exciting. It made the time on my treadmill go so much faster while listening to this book.

    President Elect Jack Ryan was my favorite. He also does a good job on Jack Jr.


    Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

    I listened to this book on my daily commute to work and while working out on my treadmill.


    Any additional comments?

    A great listen and I am looking forward to the next book in this series.

    "Decent book, great narrator."

    Lou Diamond Phillips is a superb narrator -- almost on par with John Lee. I hope to hear more from him in the Jack Ryan series.

    "Much better than last"
    Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

    This story was much better than his last and reminded me of the old Tom Clancy.
    Lou Diamond Phillips still does a good job at narrating.
    The last part suggests another edition coming soon.
