Really enjoyed the global politics and tension and escalation. But it quickly changed tone to detailed military tactics and battle descriptions over any plot or character development. Got a little overwhelming and I couldn't finish it unfortunately. If you like military tactics, this is gold.

Gives great insight to military operations, exciting at times but becomes somewhat repetitive. The story jumps from character to charactor mid sentence and is hard to follow at times. Decent read...

of all the books I have read over the years, Red Storm rising has always been a favorite and yet I will only read it twice. once what I was in my twenties and now I'm in my fifties. this book to me is a timeless classic showcasing what a war between the United States NATO, and the Union of Soviet socialist Republic would have looked like. this novel to me is a wonderful read and I wish more people could read it and would read it I will always enjoy this and I hope more people will feel the same way.
About the author
A little more than thirty years ago Tom Clancy was a Maryland insurance broker with a passion for naval history. Years before, he had been an English major at Baltimore’s Loyola College and had always dreamed of writing a novel. His first effort, The Hunt for Red October, sold briskly as a result of rave reviews, then catapulted onto the New York Times bestseller list after President Reagan pronounced it “the perfect yarn.” From that day forward, Clancy established himself as an undisputed master at blending exceptional realism and authenticity, intricate plotting, and razor-sharp suspense. He passed away in October 2013.
