Conspiricy?

The Joys of a Tom Clancy

What’s brought all this on? Well, I am watching “The Hunt for Red October” at the moment. Not really seen the film before, but have read the book, and infact most of Tom Clancy’s books to be honest.

Now, a lot of what happens in his books may seem far feteched. The character Jack Ryan ends up as Persident of the United States (“Executive Orders“). But, what cannot really be said is that the plot lines are impossible. History has seen to that. Clancy’s plot lines have included renegade actions by parts of US administrations, Terrorists in the United Kingdom, who then went to america (“Patriot Games&quot), and we know how scary the idea of terrorists to americans is when they are actually in america – read the book, there are some interesting theames in it.

In other books, terrorists have made atomic weapons (The Sum of All Fears), and even managed to kill an entire US administration by crashing a plane into the Capitol

How did Sherlock Holmes always find the answer? Eliminate everything that is impossible, and what ever remains, no matter how improbably, that is your answer.

Now keep reading all those books, and see how scared you get.
