You were right..."Threat Vector" was a fun read.

But I wish we'd whomped up on China a little more. That Dong Feng 21
missile is a scary creature.
The Chinese seem to think so also:

Scary stuff. Clancy should have destroyed all those buggers!


=================================

Ya, not a heavy "thinker" .... just good adventure entertainment type
reading. But, like other novels by Clancy, not too far from the real
world.

In terms of quality of writing, it's been downhill for Clancy since "The
Hunt for Red October," despite his great financial success. He has a
nice tugboat up at Annapolis.
