I once read that he was writing multiple books and whichever one he finished first was the one that was published. If you don't know, Tom Clancy often published books out of chronological order. It seems like he is meeting her for the first time in Red Winter when she is assigned as his field agent for the mission. While Mary Pat appears in The Cardinal of the Kremlin but I can't remember if Ryan met her then. Speaking of characters that we know from the original books written by Tom Clancy, several make an appearance - Mary Pat, John Clark, and Dan Murray to name a few. John Clark is in Red Winter but the two do not meet and there is a brief statement that indicates that Ryan has not met the man. But it is before Clear and Present Danger when he meets John Clark on a mission in South America. That's all it took and I was hooked on Cold War-era espionage novels.Īs far as I can tell Red Winter takes place after The Patriots Games where Ryan foils an Irish terrorist attack and The Hunt for Red October where Ryan negotiates the defection of a Russian submarine captain as these two incidents are referenced. Mom had a small collection of Jack Ryan books on the bookshelf and as I had enjoyed the movie The Hunt for Red October (in my head Jack, Sr is always Harrison Ford) I decided to pick up The Cardinal of the Kremlin. books Senior is my favorite as it was his stories that got me reading for pleasure again.Īfter college, when I had time to read for pleasure again, I had no idea what to read as an adult. I love Marc Cameron's books in Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan Universe. A free book was provided for an honest review. When his search takes him into East Germany, can Ryan escape detection or will he be arrested, tortured, and possibly executed?Īmazon affiliate links are used on this site. It is the height of the Cold War and CIA Analyst Jack Ryan is sent to West Germany to uncover the traitor. There's a traitor in West Berlin, a top secret plane crashes during a test flight, and a consulate employee is mugged but when her purse is returned nothing was taken but something was added.
