Title: Tom Clancy dead at 66
Post by: Kena on October 02, 2013, 03:40:55 AM

News in the UK is reporting that Tom Clancy has died at 66.

I was looking forward to the release of the next Jack Ryan novel in December of this year.

Some sound familiar, but I haven't read them, just seen the movies.

I read 2 or 3 of the books years ago, and saw several of the movies based on them. I'm sorry to hear of his passing.

I only have a few of his books....as you can tell from the pictures...

Somewhere in the bookshelf are also books from the Netforce, Powerplays, Op-Center, and Splinter Cells series in paperpack....had more of those but already gave away some of those books already.
