Description

Jack Ryan Jr. finds that the scars of war can last a lifetime in this entry in Tom Clancy's #1 New York Times bestselling series.

Twenty-six years ago, Dr. Cathy Ryan restored the eyesight of a young Bosnian girl who had been injured during an attack in the Bosnian War. Today, her son Jack Ryan, Jr. has agreed to track down the young woman and deliver a letter from his mother. What he finds shocks them both. 

The helpless child has grown into a remarkable woman. Aida Curic is a self-possessed beauty with a big heart and an even bigger secret who runs a controversial refugee agency near Sarajevo. Jack finds himself deeply drawn to both her and her country, but soon finds himself in the crosshairs of the seething ethnic tensions and ancient blood feuds of the Balkans, the region of Europe where empires go to die. If Jack can't navigate the world of secret service agencies, special operators and local mafias to save Aida, Sarajevo will prove the be the fuse that lights the next world war.

    Didn’t expect a travel guide book for most of this reading. When it finally got to the action/adventure part it was forced and unbelievable. Writing is a poor substitute for Tom Clancy.

  • Story lines have lost their way

    Read too much like a romance novel wrapped in a tour guild brochure. Miss the old team working together. Now the last few books have been Superman Jack Jr. with the rest of the campus sitting on the bench.

  • Probably the worst of the Tom Clancy series

    That Jack Jr. could be so dense! A great story other than that, and I was thrilled that it was so localized to a territory troubled for so long. Jack Jr. needs a strong woman to keep him centered; so he can keep his mind on the business at hand - maybe Adara is the one?!?

    Non-stop action and intrigue. Complex plot twists and complicated characters. A great read.

  • Interesting history but Maden pans to middle age men

    His Jack Jr. character is supposed to be young but has the internal sentiments of a man who’s sperm count doesn’t match his unrealistic sense of his sexual vitality... that said I enjoyed the balkans history and food reviews. More of this and less of the BS... The other characters left something to be desired - development was pretty poor - bad guys not very believable or particularly frightening. The idea that idiot cousin could successfully shoot down an airliner was a real eye roller - even in the “anything’s possible” world of fiction. The Turkish angle could have been better developed given historical context and current affairs. I found it odd that the Russians, as a side plot, far more terrifying... not exactly what you would want here... I get that they were a plot decoy but maybe should have toned them down slightly.

    Clancy character but not Clancy. Still a great read.

    Plot development was painfully slow with only snippets of Tom Clancy-like action. Character development was ragged. Overall, a poor read relative to other efforts in the Clancy-Ryan genre by this author.
