One of Clancy's best espionage thrillers!

Originally published in 1993, Without Remorse introduces criminal John Kelly who joins the CIA to become the coldly efficient John Clark. Clark remains a key character in the more recent Ryan Jr. novels.

John Kelly Clark is the bomb

Loved this book, one of my favorite Clancy works for sure. You just got to love a guy who fights for those who cannot fight for themselves. Clancy does a masterful job of developing this awesome character John Clark and it serves him well in many books to come. You learn what makes John tick and why he does the things he does. Michael Pritchard is good as the narrator but gets a bit monotone at times. I found it difficult to distinguish different characters sometimes because his voice doesn’t always vary with that character change. Other than that, a steal at only one credit!

A stellar story

Without Remorse still ranks as my favorite of all the Tom Clancy novels I have read/listened to, with my favorite character of all time, John Clark.

Great beginning, mediocre reading

If you're a fan of the Jack Ryan universe, this is an awesome book. It tells the origins of special agent John Clark. Jack Ryan doesn't appear in this book, but if you're read other books about Clark, it's quite a treat to find out where he came from and what his emotional past is.

The reading of this book is mediocre. The speaker has a good voice, but doesn't differentiate the character's voices at all. It can make things a little confusing when there is a lot of dialogue between two or more characters. The newer books in this series are much better narrated.

good start

my first book in this series. enjoyed story and reader. will continue with both series and reader
