Excellent!
The first book in the Jack Ryan series. Better than the movie
I couldn't put it down! I didn't think it would be my type of book but I loved it.

One of Tom Clancy's very best...the book that started it all. This is one of those books that keeps you turning the pages, and the movie was as good as the book!! If you like suspense at it's best, this is the book for you.
POSSIBLY TOM CLANCYS' BEST BOOK. ALSO A PRETTY GOOD MOVIE.
This one started Tom's career. Excellent if you like action/adventure
