Resumen del Editor

The newest electrifying thriller in the #1 New York Times–bestselling series has President Jack Ryan and his allies facing a treacherous foe threatening to unleash chaos around the globe. . . .

When Russian President Valeri Volodin's ambitions are foiled in Dagestan, he faces a difficult choice. The oligarchs who support him expect a constant flow of graft, but with energy prices cratering, the Russian economy sputters to a virtual halt. Unable to grow the Russian market at home, his hold on power relies on expansion abroad—a plan that has been thwarted by the United States in the past. But this time Volodin has determined that an indirect approach is the best. A floating natural gas facility in Lithuania is blown up. A Venezuelan prosecutor is assassinated. A devastating attack on a Russian troop train kills dozens. A chaotic world is the best camouflage for a series of seemingly unrelated attacks.

Only one man recognizes an ominous pattern in the reports of terror from around the globe. U.S. President Jack Ryan sees a guiding hand in the worldwide chaos, but before he can act he needs proof.

Listen to the first from Red October until now.

Not bad. Follows Clancy style.

Could not wait to listen during each commute. The performance was excellent really conveyed the energy of the moments without going over the top.

Great read of good story in the Jack Ryan universe

This was another story that built slowly up to a crescendo of action at the end. Not knowing how all of the events were going to intertwine is the keystone of a Clancy thriller and Mark Greaney knows how to write in that way. A very good story but I would love to see more twists and curves.

As always, Scott Brick does another amazing job of narrating and getting me sucked into the performance. I say performance as he pulls everything together to make you feel a part of the universe instead of just a casual observer.

loved it

loved the plot and it fits perfect with today's political issues. Also loved the narrator

keep up the great work.

Great read!

Great read! Love the plot and character dialog. The words painted the perfect pictures of the story conveyed.

Well done!

If you are a fan of Jack Ryan you will like this book. Well done Mark Graney.

Good but alil of a miss

Wonder why they had all the build up to the war and when it started it was over so shortly. Guess I was just hoping for a battle like there was in The Bear and Dragon.

Just as expected....

Jack Ryan and son always spin a good tale, and it's even better when Scott Brick narrates. I enjoyed it, and look forward to the next adventure.

Engaging and true to Tom Clancy

The best TC story since Clear and Present Danger. Believable, engaging , perfect balance of drama and humor.

A bit of a slip for Mark Greaney

I almost didn't buy this because of the inherently dishonest (although widely accepted practice) of putting a dead author's name on a book cover. However, I've listened to Mark Greaney's Gray Man books as well as his last "Clancy" book and really like his work. This book, in my opinion, is not up to par with his previous titles. Probably my last "Clancy."
