I know. But, Red Storm Rising is a pretty epic book, and I recommend it.  (I'm not done with it yet, so no spoilers please.)

Quoted:
Great Book I also liked these two: These two and Red Storm Rising are the trifecta of 80's paperback awesomeness. |
I liked it. And its one of the few alternate-Ryanverse things Clancy has written (or had ghostwritten  ) that wasn't total garbage.
Like so many authors, he made the poor mistake of letting all of his main characters age. Nobody wants to read about Jack ryan's son or whatever who is a CIA assassin. They want more stuff like Rainbow Six (although that let Clark get old, but at least he still kicked ass in that book). |

I was thinking the other day how there needs to be a second book in the "Red Storm Rising" universe.
I just read RSR again myself a few weeks ago and it felt like it ended very abruptly. Ending should have been longer with some of the story going into what happens "afterwards". In addition to that, there is so much going on around the world that there has to be many more stories that could be told from the events in the book. I'd like to know what happens in Norway... the Med... the Indian Ocean... etc... |
