Got done reading Tom Clancy's latest helping. It still takes place in the Jack Ryanverse, but Jack Ryan is no longer President, Robbie got popped by a KKKer because it looked like he was gonna be the next prez, and Ed Kealty (the Rapist-sleazeball) is now President. Goody.
It's mostly from the viewpoint of Jack Ryan, Jr. Who has joined "The Campus", an anti-terror group Jack Senior set up with and offshore account, they aren't even in the budget. It's also from the viewpoint of two new charecters, Junior's Cousins, a Force Recon Marine and FBI agent.
Anywho, this is a mostly anti-terror novel. Al-Qaeda cuts a deal with the Columbian Cartel; If they help them get folks into the US, Al-Qaeda(or whovever) will help get drugs into Europe. Four Terrorist teams sneak in, and shoot up for different malls across the country, most in middle-america suburbs.
I won't tell how it ends, but it's obvious there are going to be more novels with this group along these lines. It's also worth noteing that the patched up Israeli problem has been derailed in this universe, and the 9/11 attacks did happen.
