About this listen

Don't Miss the Original Series Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan Starring John Krasinski!

In this #1 New York Times bestselling thriller from Tom Clancy, Jack Ryan gets caught in a war between the United States and a Colombian drug cartel and uncovers a shocking conspiracy.


When Colombian drug lords assassinate both the U.S. ambassador and the visiting head of the FBI, their actions trigger a covert response from the American government—a response that goes horribly wrong...

As the newly named Deputy Director of Intelligence for the CIA, Jack Ryan should be privy to operations like the one in Colombia, but he’s been left completely in the dark. With the help of field officer John Clark, Ryan intends to find out what’s really going on. But while they expect danger from without, the greatest threat of all may come from within.©1990 Tom Clancy (P)2010 Random House

This is one of Clancy's best. Full of great technical detail. Much of the plot weaving he was known for.
Prichard is a fantastic reader. Enjoyed this one. 8.5 stars out of 10.

Excellent Novel

Really enjoyed the story, narrator wasn’t my favourite but still good
I have to say that The characters Clark and Chavez are the real stars in this one not saying that the jack Ryan character wasn’t an Intercal part of the overall story and we also get to see more development of his character

Might just be my favourite Jack Ryan story

This took me a few months to finish. Not due to the pace, action or theme. It was the little asides about a female character here and there that pulled me out of the otherwise rich environment.
I think I might prefer the later series that are ghost written.

not the target audience
