#4 I've read virtually every book he wrote. THfRO was also a good movie...the other movies were crap turned into PC BS by Hollyfrauds.

RIP sir.

#6 Nope, they only register dead Democrats in Chicago.
Agree with AlanC. Red October was not only a great book, but also a great movie.

Fav line: Andrei, you've lost another submarine?

#7 Sum of All Fears was a gripping, chilling book. The movie was blowing up American icons and Bafflack's forehead.

Clear and Present Danger was a watchable movie, but a total let down compared to the book.

The opening to Red Storm Rising could be read today.

Great author, great stories.
