I was wondering for a while now if I could get into Tom Clancy. I'm not sure if this is really my cup of tea but there is only one way to find out. So, can anyone recommend my a good start into the Clancy universe? It would be nice if this book would be either a stand alone or the start of a series and at the same time be typical for his style and themes.
I'm buying Red Storm Rising soon (as soon as I finished my current stuff). I'm really looking forward to it.
Tom Clancy is WAY TOO MUCH "CHECK OUT MERICA'S AWESOME CAWK". Instead read books written by seals, irl snipers, and Delta guys.
>>43 If you were getting ready to read Tom Clancy and didn't realize he has the American military industrial complex's cock in his mouth, you're pretty retarded. He's like the Michael Bay of popular fiction. PROTIP: None of the Splinter Cells are based off of any of Clancy's books. Even the Splinter Cell books weren't written by him.
I've only read one Tom Clancy book thus far, Red Rabbit, and it's horrible. Took me like three months to read. It's sluggish, boring, and a bit too realistic (meaning nothing happens). Whatever you do, don't read it.
The Hunt for Red October, obviously.
