Publisher Description
For President Jack Ryan, his son Jack Ryan, Jr., and the covert organization known as The Campus, the fight against America’s enemies is never over. But the danger has just hit home in a way they never expected in this #1 New York Times bestselling Tom Clancy thriller....
The Campus has been discovered. And whoever knows they exist knows they can be destroyed. Meanwhile, President Jack Ryan has been swept back into the Oval Office—and his wisdom and courage are needed more desperately than ever.
Internal political and economic strife has pushed the leadership of China to the edge of disaster. And those who wish to consolidate their power are using the opportunity to strike at long-desired Taiwan, as well as the Americans who have protected the tiny nation.
Now, as two of the world’s superpowers move ever closer to a final confrontation, President Ryan must use the only wild card he has left—The Campus. But with their existence about to be revealed, they might not even have a chance to enter the battle before the world is consumed by war.

"Threat Vector by Tom Clancy with Mark Greaney. President Jack Ryan in the Oval Office; a former CIA agent and his son eliminate threats to interests of the U.S. Someone is working against them and their intelligence agency, threatening to expose them. Chinese experts in cyber-warfare launch an attack on the U. S. Chinese attacks escalate to satellites, dog fights and throughout the broad range of technology. There is much telling in narrative and at times it is not advancing the characters or story. Characters thoughts and dialogue could share more of the telling narrative or exposition advancing the plot. With suspenseful action the characters are believable and heroes work against fierce odds. A high tech thriller, blending general military knowledge realism and intricate plotting."

" I realize I am probably not the Clancy target audience, but what an incredibly pompous piece of nonsense. I managed to make it halfway before I gave up. Definitely not recommended for people whose last encounter with Clancy was The Hunt For Red October, because in between Jack Ryan went from Buccaroo to warmonger in a handbasket! "

" Another great book from Tom Clancy. It has been great following Jack Ryan and all the other characters over the year. Can't wait for the next book. "
— Randy, 2/11/2014 -
" Loved this book. As usual, it left me wishing Jack Ryan Sr. was our real life president. Interesting how timely the Chinese Hacker situation intersects with the present day headlines. "

" OK read for audio book at the gym about a cyber attack on the US by China. I'm amazed at the technical detail this author seems to have at his command--flying fighter planes, hacking computers, military strategy and stuff.....but the story loses credibility for me with immortal main characters who slay adversaries with a single, quick stroke, and the dark haired beauty whom you really wish somebody would shoot but they never do. "

" This was the first Tom Clancy novel I've read. As I opened the book to see a list of all the various characters and who they were, I worried I would have a hard time following along. But the novel was so well written and the story flowed so well that it wasn't a problem at all. I will be reading more of his novels in the future. "

" I some times got bored with the sections that were drawn out with details and this wasn't my favorite Tom Clancy book, this was a very good book which I couldn't put down for the last 300 pages or so. "
— Amy, 1/19/2014 -
" Another fun story in the Jack Ryan series! This one wasn't as much of a cliff hanger as the last one so it will be very interesting to see what happens next. As usual I enjoyed the pace and the action and the story itself! "

" Love Tom Clancy's work. "
— Everett, 1/8/2014 -
" I enjoy Tom Clancy's books but he needs to tone down the number of pages. 800 pages every time is just too much. "
— Linda, 12/21/2013 -
" I am afraid this book may become true. It will grab your intrest and not turn loose. "
— Don, 12/12/2013 -
" A huge improvement over locked on, but I don't think the Jack Ryan series will ever be 5 stars without Clancy writing them himself. "
— Ko, 12/6/2013 -
" Classic Clancy. Another great book. Love the new kids too. Any book with John Clark is bad ass. "

" jack Ryan is the President. Mary Pat is director of national intelligence. Jack Clark, Dom,Ding and Junior are back and they all save the world. Great job guys. "
— Rosemary, 11/3/2013 -
" Good fast pace..some different angles compared to his other books. Nice to see a changing of the character focus. "
— Aly, 9/13/2013 -
" I love Clancy's Jack Ryan series. These books are truly written by a literary genius. His rich and descriptive prose, his full development of both the plot and the characters, and his attention to details make this a first-class read. "
— Stan, 6/14/2013 -
" Tom Clancy is the man. The detail in the story is what makes this 1000 page massive piece of work worth reading. Bravo to Tom and his team who keeps coming up with great story after story. "
— Andre, 5/8/2013 -
" 800+ pages of junk food "
— Philipgaudet, 3/2/2013 -
" A good solid Clancy; and a great sense of timing given hacking headlines! Breezed thru 835 pages. "
— Phil, 12/25/2012 -
" You know it's a good spy book when you have to remind yourself repeatedly that what is being described hasn't really happened. "
