"World War Three is launched when the Soviet Union finds itself facing a major energy crisis, and the hero is a meteorologist turned guerrilla-fighter on Iceland.
Lots of high-tech air-land-and-sea combat delivered at a break-neck pace by the master of the techno-thriller, Tom Clancy. To bad he didn't find a way to include his John Patrick Ryan and make this book part of the Jack Ryan series."
"Red Storm Rising tells the story of a hypothetical World War III, triggered by a fuel crisis in the Soviet Union. It does not feature Jack Ryan, Clancy's All-American Hero and Family Man. Instead, it follows several different characters, some American, some Russian, through interleaved subplots, giving you an appreciation for how the tide of even a global war can turn on the inspiration, resourcefulness, and luck of individual people."
"By far my favorite book by Clancy, and Jack Ryan isn't even in it. If you only read one Tom Clancy book, read this one. I used to see military helicopters flying near my house in Utah. I will never look at them the same after reading this book."
"I thought this was a massive achievement and really very intersting. I'd give it a higher ranking but it's just so darn long. I understand World War III would take a while, but in fiction the writer could have condensed some of it. Although I enjoyed it, it was a long time after reading this one before I tried another Clancy. I guess I'm just afraid of committment."
