About this listen
Newly elected, Jack Ryan has found that being President is not easy: domestic pitfalls await him at every turn; there's a revolution in Liberia; the Asian economy is going down the tubes; and now, in Moscow, someone may have tried to assassinate the chairman of the SVR - the former KGB - with a rocket-propelled grenade. Were the potential assassins political enemies, the Russian Mafia, or disaffected former KGB? Or is something far more dangerous at work here? While Ryan dispatches his most trusted eyes and ears, including black ops specialist John Clark, to find out the truth of the matter, forces in China are moving ahead with a plan of truly audacious proportions. If they succeed, the world will never look the same again.

Story
A terrorist bomb explodes during a South Korean celebration of the anniversary of the election of its first president. Alarms are raised in Washington. No one is claiming responsibility. The first suspect is North Korea. Could it be making a power play against South Korea and unification? If so, how will the U.S. respond? Paul Hood, Director of the Op-Center, must answer these questions. The Op-Center, a largely autonomous new agency which takes on the government's toughest security problems, is only six months old, and has never been given a foreign crisis until now.

Story
This is the book that dares to show us the military hardware, global upheavals, and raw combat a second Korean War would unleash. How F-16s would blast across the 38th Parallel. How ultra-modern submarines would vie for the seas. And how two armies would turn the snowfields of Asia red with blood. A thundering geopolitical thriller of vast scope, this is Red Phoenix - and a new standard for military/political suspense fiction.

Great Tom Clancy!
If you like Tom Clancy, this is a great book.
As with all of his books, the military and action stuff is super.
The personal relationships stuff is klunky and weird.
But it’s a great light read (or listen).

A Tom Clancy Classic
The narrator for these Tom Clancy books is really quite good. He is perfect of Clancy's books and all their secret plots and military tactics.

Michael Prichard does an excellent narration. I think he also narrates Red Storm Rising. This book is good, predictable story line. I have enjoyed all Tom Clancy books so far. Can't go wrong with this book.

The end as far as I'm concerned
could have been half as long without all the right-wing political grandstanding and racism. cracks started showing in debt of honor and this is where it fell apart for me.

Meh
Decent book. By this point, the Jack Ryan novels were starting to get a bit silly. A little too much politics and making your guy president pretty pretentious. Still, the military stuff is great. 6.5 stars out of 10.
