I remember reading Red Storm Rising and then The Hunt for Red October. Excellent well thought out plots.

He will be missed in the literary world.

I heard that after Red Storm Rising that it was adopted by the War College as that was a scenario that they had not thought of.

Thank you Mr. Clancy for Jack Ryan, John Clark, Ding Chavez and all of your great characters, stories, and villains!

Readers will miss Clancy; the "literary world" will not.

Clancy, you see, was a "conservative", a "militarist", a "wild-eyed right winger". Not to mention, a "wealthy capitalist pig".

The "literary world" was happy to see him go. His readers, however, will miss him dearly...
