The Bear and the Dragon
President Jack Ryan faces a world crisis unlike any he has ever known in Tom Clancy's extraordinary #1 New York Times bestseller
'Exhilarating' Sunday Times
Newly elected as President, domestic pitfalls await Jack Ryan around every corner. Now, in Moscow, someone may have tried to take out the chairman of the SVR - the former KGB - with a rocket-propelled grenade. Even more disturbing is the potential identity of the assassin. Were they political enemies, the Russian Mafia, disaffected former KGB? Or, Ryan wonders, is something far more dangerous at work here?
He is right to wonder. For even while Russian investigators pursue the case, forces in China are moving forward with a plan of truly audacious proportions. If they succeed, the world as we know it will never look the same. If they fail... the consequences may be unspeakable.
Reader reviews for The Bear and the Dragon
Clancy at his best. I have to marvel at how he did it.
My all time favourite Tom Clancy novel.
Once you get into it, it's damn hard to stop reading it.
A fascinating read and plot, very current and scarily authentic.
You'll be immersed.
