( ) Anagarika | Oct 30, 2009 | Mr. Clancy has a great knowledge of the military. Good story. ( ) Anagarika | Oct 30, 2009 | First Clancy novel I read. Very interesting story - and if I may say so, very believable because universal society rule says -> if you are in social trouble go to war, because in that case you have 50:50 chances (or better if your military might is [vastly] superior to your opponent ) to calm down your folk and proceed on (I think recent events are more then proof for this). Only thing that annoys me is that we-win-no-matter-what-they-do. Although I can understand this I think this scenario is least likely than all. More realistic scenario can be found in "Third World War" by Humphrey Hawksley - when major powers collide population survivability is extremely low for all sides in conflict (and those caught in the middle). Beside that good novel with lots of interesting military hardware info (Clancy's trademark :) ) ( ) Zare | Mar 26, 2009 | 
 Although the writing is unduly prolix, especially in its loving treatment of submarine warfare, the story is well told. The many readers of Mr. Clancy's first book will enjoy ''Red Storm Rising.'' His is an oddly comforting version of World War III.
