Lots of conflict, lots of action, lots of surprises – A review of Threat Victor

In which Jack Ryan, Junior and Senior, take on most of the bad guys in the world. Guess who wins. Find this cyberwarfare on Loadity, an online platform for action content in the form of eBooks, audiobooks and music.

Writing with international relations maven turned novelist Greaney, techno geek and political mayhem lover Clancy drafts a legion of villains—al-Qaida operatives, rogue spooks, former Gadhafi agents and high-ups in the Chinese Communist Party—who are separately and together up to decidedly no good when it comes to the sovereign interests of the U.S., now led by former CIA agent Jack Ryan. His namesake son is a field agent, as adept as dad at identifying and eliminating threats, and the threats are ever so many. Even so, getting to the heaviest of the heavies, among them brilliant hackers who, from the safety of China, are working 24/7 to break into America’s computers, takes them a little more effort and planning. It’s a pleasure, banal or no, to watch the Ryans at work against such fierce competition, and Clancy and Greaney are at the top of their game. Interestingly, too, Clancy’s writing has shed some of its erstwhile woodenness, and though he still loves gadgetry and military hardware, his latest doesn’t read like a tech manual, which is all to the good.

In this read, Clancy creates not only compelling characters but frighteningly topical situations and heart-stopping action. Embark on this enthralling and engrossing tale at Loadity. A satisfying thriller, with enough evildoers left over to ensure the possibility of another Ryan-Ryan adventure.
