Well I’ve been reading a lot (as I mentioned in the past), and I’ve gotten hooked on the Jack Ryan series by Tom Clancy. I think they are pretty well written, and the stories are engaging. My only complaint with Clancy is that he uses confusing names a lot of times. Cortez and Chavez for instance. When I’m reading fast, my brain is on pattern recognition mode. Cortez and Chavez look similar enough to make it difficult to see the difference. For that matter, I think in one of the books I’m reading now there are two people named Alden. Thats just too much. Anyway, aside from that minor gripe, I’m liking the books.
I’m curious though, what order to they go in? Not published order, but actual chronologic order. It would appear to me that Jack Ryan has been both the President, and an analyst. I think he publishes some of them out of order.
