Description

This Tom Clancy "Jack Ryan" Package includes paperback copies of four classic "Jack Ryan" bestsellers: The Hunt for Red October, Patriot Games, Clear and Present Danger, and The Sum of All Fears. Also included is a limited-edition "Dead or Alive" teeshirt (size L)!


Author Tom Clancy has written fourteen #1 New York Times bestselling novels. Jack Ryan, introduced in 1984's The Hunt for Red October, is one of his most popular characters.


Jack Ryan's success is solidly based on the foundation of his middle-class upbringing and inquisitive mind. After graduating from Boston College on a Naval ROTC scholarship, he was commissioned as a Second Lieutenant in the United State Marine Corps. His military career ended when a helicopter crash left him seriously injured.


During his recovery he met his future wife Cathy, made millions in the stock market, and took a job teaching history at the US Naval Academy. On a trip to London, he thwarted an attempt on the life of the Prince of Wales. This led to a career with the CIA--first as an analyst, then a reluctant field agent, and ultimately, as the Deputy Director of the CIA.


His next post was as National Security Advisor. His actions during the brief secret military confrontation with Japan led to his appointment as Vice President of the United States. One tragic moment thrust him into the Presidency, from which he is now retired. But is his country done with him?


Read these classic thrillers...and find out.
