I hate Tom Clancy for the most part, but this book is so bad ass! I am reading it through for the third time... :p
| quote: | | Red Storm Rising is a 1986 techno-thriller novel by Tom Clancy and Larry Bond about a Third World War in Europe between NATO and Warsaw Pact forces, set around the mid-1980s, probably in 1986 or 1987 (one possible date is April 1986, based on the comment that USS Reuben James had 'only been in commission a month'. USS Reuben James was commissioned on March 22, 1986). Though there are other novels dealing with a fictional World War III, this one is notable for the way in which numerous settings for the action — from Atlantic convoy duty to shooting down reconnaissance satellites to tank battles in Germany — all have an integral part to play on the outcome. This is one of two novels that has no association with Clancy's others, as it does not fall in the Ryanverse. |
They need to make a movie series off of it or something. So many bad-ass different plot lines in it.
You could easily make 3 or 4 different movies off of it. |
