Sad news though, loved his Jack Ryan books. RIP Tom
Red Storm rising is a standalone book and was based around a really popular board game that played out a Russian Invasion scenario.

BTW for those of you that like Tom Clancy Larry Bonds early stuff.

Red Phoenix - Basically refighting the Korean War using modern tactics and equiptment

Cauldron - The European financial crisis leads to a resurgant and aggressive French German alliance which leads to War

Vortex - Great Great book about the racist regime in South Africa being overthrown by even worse fanatics leading to a World War. Really well written
