About this title

About the Author:

Thirty years ago Tom Clancy was a Maryland insurance broker with a passion for naval history. Years before, he had been an English major at Baltimore's Loyola College and had always dreamed of writing a novel. His first effort, "The Hunt for Red October," sold briskly as a result of rave reviews and then catapulted onto the "New York Times "bestseller list after President Reagan pronounced it "the perfect yarn." Since then Clancy has established himself as an undisputed master at blending exceptional realism and authenticity, intricate plotting, and razor-sharp suspense.
Mark Greaney has a degree in international relations and political science and is pursuing his master's in intelligence studies with a concentration in criminal intelligence. He is the author of the Gray Man novels: "The Gray Man," "On Target," "Ballistic "and "Dead Eye." In his research for them, he traveled to seven countries and trained alongside military and law enforcement in the use of firearms, battlefield medicine, and close-range combat tactics.

Review:

"Each plotline comes to us mainly in a series of tightly written action scenes...as visual as anything on a movie screen, with the added enticement of crisp, accurate and hard driving prose." "--Chicago Tribune"
"Hard to put down." "--Pittsburgh Post-Gazzette"
"Clancy still reigns." --"The Washington Post"

"Pulse-pounding action grabs you from the opening page and keeps hold till the end." --"The Burlington Hawk Eye "

"The man who virtually invented this genre." --"Publishers Weekly" (starred review)
