Finished Reading: Without Remorse by Tom Clancy

by

Without Remorse (Jack Ryan Universe, #1)Without Remorse by Tom Clancy
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have read the majority of the Jack Ryan books by Tom Clancy before and he became my favourite author as a result. Nothing has changed. I loved these books and I see little to change that now. A great read and I look forward to working my way through the entire series again.

Article: Tom Clancy Has Died

by

By now most people familiar with books and authors will know that Tom Clancy has died. Tom Clancy wrote the Jack Ryan series of novels, including ‘The Hunt for Red October,’ ‘Patriot Games’ and ‘Clear and Present Danger.’ He was perhaps the author I favoured most and he will be sadly missed.

I am a big fan of Tom Clancy novels and in particular the Jack Ryan series. A number of years ago I read all of the novels published in the series up until the time I moved house and so for the last 5 years I haven’t read any new ones. When I moved I decided I needed to clean out some of my books (and I have a huge library), so I figured the majority of my fiction books could be cleaned out. I always regretted moving the Tom Clancy novels along, though I figured that at some point I could reclaim them as ebooks, which I am now beginning to do.

A couple of weeks ago I decided to start reading the series again – right from the beginning. I hesitated as to what order I should read them, given that Patriot Games really was set before The…
