Tom Clancy's Op-Center is a beating heart of defense, intelligence, and crisis management technology. It is run by a team of operatives both within its own walls and out in the field. And when a job is too dirty--or too dangerous--it is the only place our government can turn. But nothing can prepare Director Paul Hood and his Op-Center crisis management team for what they are about to uncover--a very real, very frightening power play that could unleash new players in a new world order....

Tom Clancy / Audio Cassette / Published 1988
In The Cardinal of the Kremlin, Tom Clancy's cutting-edge research takes readers inside Soviet and American attempts to develop a Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI). The Soviets have begun successful tests of their system, located near the border of Afghanistan. Americans race to implement their own system, Tea Clipper, so as to maintain strategic parity. Cardinal of the Kremlin, however, is more about the shifting allegiances
of the intelligence community and the unstable world of late 1980s U.S.-Soviet relations
than it is about military technology. Colonel Mikhail Filitov is the Cardinal, the CIA's
ear in the Kremlin and a steady source of the latest Soviet secrets. Passing microfilm
through a chain of agents that begins in a Turkish bath, the Cardinal exposes a double
agent in the American SDI program. Unfortunately, the KGB also knows that they have a mole
in their midst. In tightly crafted narrative that rapidly cuts from the Kremlin to
Afghanistan to Washington, D.C., the Americans rush to pull Filitov and his associates out
before his cover is blown. Jack Ryan returns as the moral center in a world often
dominated by egos and politicking, and John Clark, ex-Navy SEAL and current CIA agent
makes his first appearance in a Clancy novel

Tom Clancy / Audio Cassette / Published 1990 At the end of the prologue to Clear and Present Danger, Clancy writes,
"And so began something that had not quite begun and would not soon end, with many
people in many places moving off in directions and on missions which they all mistakenly
thought they understood. That was just as well. The future was too fearful for
contemplation, and beyond the expected, illusory finish lines were things fated by the
decisions made this morning--and, once decided, best unseen." In Clear and Present
Danger nothing is as clear as it may seem. The president, unsatisfied with the success of his "war on drugs,"
decides that he wants some immediate success. But after John Clark's covert strike team is
deployed to Colombia for Operation Showboat, the drug lords strike back taking several
civilian casualties. The chief executive's polls plummet. He orders Ritter to terminate
their unofficial plan and leave no traces. Jack Ryan, who has just been named CIA deputy
director of intelligence is enraged when he discovers that has been left out of the loop
of Colombian operations. Several of America's most highly trained soldiers are stranded in
an unfinished mission that, according to all records, never existed. Ryan decides to get
the men out. Ultimately, Clear and Present Danger is about good conscience, law, and
politics, with Jack Ryan and CIA agent John Clark as its dual heroes. Ryan relentlessly
pursues what he knows is right and legal, even if it means confronting the president of
the United States. Clark is the perfect soldier, but a man who finally holds his men
higher than the orders of any careless commander. Along with the usual, stunning array of military hardware and the latest
techno-gadgets, Clear and Present Danger further develops the relationships and
characters that Clancy fans have grown to love. Admiral James Greer passes the CIA torch
to his pupil, Ryan. Mr. Clark and Chavez meet for the first time. Other recurring
characters like Robert Ritter and "the President" add continuity to Clancy's
believable, alternate reality. This is Clancy at his best. The virtual Dominion of Sarxos is the most popular wargame on the Net. But
something sinister is going on. Some players' computers are destroyed by burglars. Another
player is attacked and beaten. One thing is certain--someone in the Dominion of Sarxos is
taking the game very seriously. Net Force Explorers Megan O'Malley and Leif Anderson are
asked to investigate. They play the game and know the world. But nothing can prepare them
for the danger when the real game begins.

Tom Clancy, John Rubinstein (Narrator) / Audio Cassette / Published 1994 Razio Yamata is one of Japan's most influential industrialists, and part of a
relatively small group of authority who wield tremendous authority in the Pacific Rim's
economic powerhouse. He has devised a plan to cripple the American greatness, humble the
U.S. military, and elevate Japan to a position of dominance on the world stage. Yamata's
motivation lies in his desire to pay off a Debt of Honor to his parents and to the
country he feels is responsible for their deaths: America. All he needs is a catalyst to
set his plan in motion. When the faulty gas tank on one Tennessee family's car leads to
their fiery death, an opportunistic U.S. congressman uses the occasion to rush a new trade
law through the system. The law is designed to squeeze Japan economically. Instead, it
provides Yamata with the leverage he needs to put his plan into action. As Yamata's plan
begins to unfold, it becomes clear to the world that someone is launching a fully
integrated operation against the United States. There's only one man to find out who the
culprit is: Jack Ryan, the new president's National Security Advisor.

Into the
Storm : A Study in Command [ABRIDGED] ~ Usually ships
in 24 hours
Tom Clancy, et al / Audio Cassette / Published 1997 Tom Clancy's latest love-letter to the military-industrial complex focuses on
the Army--and Fred Franks, a general who helped smash Iraq in the Gulf War. In this first
volume of a series on the intricacies of military command, Clancy traces the
organizational success story of the U.S. Army's rise from the slough of Vietnam to the
heights of victory in the Persian Gulf. In 1972, the Army lacked proper discipline,
training, weapons, and doctrine; all these would be overhauled in the next 15 years. For
those readers keen on such nuts and bolts, the book will be fascinating. But the book
truly sparkles when Franks tells his story. A "tanker" who lost a foot in the
invasion of Cambodia, he is a man of great courage, thoughtfulness, and integrity. One
cannot help but wince when a civilian tells him, "You and those boys did that for
nothing." And for all the acronyms and military history, that is what this book is
about: healing the wounds Vietnam inflicted. "But this time [the Gulf War], it was
going to end differently. They all would see to that." Just in time for the ABC television event! Here comes a first: a new series of
novels for young adults starring a team of troubleshooting teens--the Net Force
Explorers--that knows more about cutting-edge technology than its teachers! The year is
2010, computers are superpowers. Those who control them, control the world. To enforce the
Net Laws, Congress creates the ultimate computer security agency within the FBI: Net
Force. When the director of Net Force is assassinated, Deputy Director Alex Michaels is
thrust into one of the most powerful and dangerous positions in the world. |
