Tom Clancy strana 4 z 7

Je rok 2010 a vše kolem nás řídí počítače. Ti, kdo mají moc nad nimi, mají moc nad celým světem. Kongres Spojených států ve snaze zajistit dohled nad dodržováním zákona o internetu zřídil nejmocnější počítačovou bezpečnostní agenturu světa spadající pod FBI: Net Force.

Exploze čínské nákladní lodi v Charlestonu, jež tajně přepravuje lidi na práci, je prvním příznakem, že kdosi má v úmyslu překazit čínské zájmy v zahraničí. Následují exploze v Jižní Africe a v Tchaj-peji. Operační centrum, které má nyní nové vedení – ženu v hodnosti generála, která nastoupila na místo náhle a nečekaně odvolaného Paula Hooda – zjistí příčinu těchto událostí. Jsou jí soupeřící frakce v čínské vládě. Operační centrum se stále ještě nevzpamatovalo z následků útoku elektromagnetickou bombou, a navíc se jeho personál musí přizpůsobit novému způsobu vedení, existuje podezření, že Operační centrum se dostává pod vliv armády. Bývalí pracovníci centra udržují nadále styky, což je novému vedení proti mysli. Tito pracovníci v podstatě ilegálně odhalí spiknutí čínského generála, který chce pomocí bomby zničit raketu, která má vynést na oběžnou dráhu čínskou komunikační družici. Sabotáž chce svést na agenty z Tchajwanu a tím ospravedlnit úder na tuto odtrženou provincii. Bývalý ř

Je tichý, neviditelný a smrtící – a je nejnovější zbraní v přední linii technologicky pokročilé války. Sam Fisher je speciálním agentem přísně tajného Třetího oddělení a má povolení špehovat, krást, ničit a zabíjet, aby ochránil Ameriku. Pracuje sám. Dokáže udeřit rychle. Je osamělým bojovníkem, inteligentním a tvrdým stejně jako nepřátelé, jimž je na stopě – avšak s jednou výhodou… Jmenuje se Sam Fisher. Je nezávislým agentem. Je to Splinter Cell. Zcela nové dobrodružství Sama Fishera. Splinter Cell® Toma Clancyho byl inspirován světoznámou hrou společnosti Ubisoft.

Jen několik málo lidí ví, že vůbec existuje. Ale když jsou v sázce miliony amerických životů, speciální agent Třetího oddělení Sam Fisher je mužem, na nějž se lze spolehnout. Vykonává úkoly příliš tajné nebo riskantní dokonce i na to, aby se jimi zabývala CIA nebo FBI. A vykonává je sám. Fisher je odvolán z cvičné mise, aby zastavil nákladní loď naloženou radioaktivním materiálem mířící přímo k pobřeží USA. Loď musí zastavit doslova v průběhu několika minut – nebo zemřít při neúspěšném pokusu. A zatímco probíhá závod s časem, jiný útok úspěšně zasahuje svůj cíl. Obyvatelé malého městečka v Novém Mexiku začínají umírat následkem ozáření a Fisher rozmotává klubko náznaků a stop a zjišťuje, že za vším stojí geniální mysl jednoho z největších nepřátel svobodného světa… Tak vypadá práce nezávislého agenta. Tak funguje Splinter Cell. Splinter Cell Toma Clancyho byl inspirován světoznámou hrou společnosti Ubisoft.

For many readers, Jack Ryan embodies the essence of the modern American hero. Morally centred, disciplined, humble yet powerful, Ryan (and his onscreen incarnations in Alec Baldwin and Harrison Ford) has made Tom Clancy one of the most popular writers in the world. But while Clancy has constructed the Ryan mythology, he has also quietly established his shadow double, John Clark. Appearing in The Cardinal of the Kremlin, Clear and Present Danger and Without Remorse, Clark has many of Jack Ryan's most appealing traits, but he is also a darker figure embodying the more paranoid sensibilities of the late nineties. As is made clear from the opening pages of Rainbow Six, ex-Navy SEAL Clark and his colleagues believe violent, deadly force to be the best deterrent for terrorism. Clark (a.k.a. Rainbow Six) has left the CIA to create an England-based organisation code-named Rainbow". Its mission: deploy an elite squad of American operatives combined with handpicked British, French and German agents to stop terrorism in its tracks. Rainbow's emergence could not be more timely: in quick succession, the force diffuses three attempted terrorist actions. But Clark becomes suspicious when Russian agents suddenly show interest in Rainbow's work. Rainbow Six appeals on all the levels that Clancy fans could hope for. The Rainbow operatives, from Navy SEALs to German mountain-leader school graduates, are rendered to inspire with their physical and mental prowess. The book is infatuated with the latest gadgets for scrambling, transmitting and decoding secrets. And, in a carefully woven narrative that simultaneously traces the Rainbow team, a former KGB agent named Popov, the Australian Olympic security team and a sinister group of American scientists, Clancy artfully reveals the mystery of "Shiva" at the centre of the novel. How does Clark measure up against Jack Ryan? He may be the perfect hero for a world with hidden villains. --Patrick O'Kelley --"

While vacationing in London, CIA analyst Jack Ryan saves the Prince and Princess of Wales from a terrorist attack and gains the gratitude of a nation and the enmity of its most dangerous men.

At the end of the prologue to Clear and Present Danger Clancy writes, And so began something that had not quite begun and would not soon end, with many people in many places moving off in directions and on missions which they all mistakenly thought they understood. That was just as well. The future was too fearful for contemplation, and beyond the expected, illusory finish lines were things fated by the decisions made this morning-- and, once decided, best unseen." In Clear and Present Danger nothing is as clear as it seems. The president, unsatisfied with the success of his "war on drugs", decides that he wants some immediate success. But after John Clark's covert strike team is deployed to Colombia for Operation Showboat, the drug lords strike back taking several civilian casualties. The chief executive's approval ratings plummet. He orders Ritter to terminate their unofficial plan and leave no traces. Jack Ryan, who has just been named CIA deputy director of intelligence is enraged when he discovers that has been left out of the loop for Colombian operations. Several of America's most highly trained soldiers are stranded in an unfinished mission that, according to all records, never existed. Ryan decides to get the men out. Ultimately, Clear and Present Danger is about moral conscience, law and politics, with Jack Ryan and CIA agent John Clark as its dual heroes. Ryan relentlessly pursues what he knows is right and legal, even if it means confronting the president of the United States. Clark is the perfect soldier, but a man who ultimately values his men higher than the orders of any careless commander. Along with the usual, stunning array of military hardware and the latest techno-gadgets, Clear and Present Danger further develops the relationships and characters that Clancy fans have grown to love: Admiral James Greer passes the CIA torch to his pupil, Ryan; Mr Clark and Chavez meet for the first time; and other recurring characters, like Robert Ritter and "the President", add continuity to Clancy's believable, alternate reality. This is Clancy at his best."

Four Cassettes, 6 hoursTime and again, Tom Clancy's novels have been praised not only for their big-scale drama and propulsive narrative drive, but for their cutting-edge prescience in predicting future events.  In The Bear and The Dragon, the future is very near at hand indeed.Newly elected in his own right, Jack Ryan has found that being President has gotten no easier.  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 take out the chairman of the SVR - the former KGB - with a rocket-propelled grenade.  Things are unstable enough in Russia without high-level assassination, but even more disturbing may be the identities of the assassins.  Were they political enemies, the Russian Mafia, disaffected former KGB?  Or, Ryan wonders, is something far more dangerous at work here.Ryan is right.   For even while he 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 as we know it will never look the same.  If they fail--the consequences will be unspeakable.

The master of international intrigue and explosive action introduces a new hero for a new era of warfare ...against a new kind of threat. For years, ... The master of international intrigue and explosive action introduces a new hero for a new era of warfare ...against a new kind of threat. For years, ex-Navy SEAL Maxwell Moore has worked across the Middle East and behind the scenes for the Special Activities Division of the CIA, making connections, extracting valuable intelligence, and facing off against America's enemies at every turn. When Moore arrives at a rendezvous to take charge of a high-ranking Taliban captive, the meeting takes a horrific turn that neither Moore nor any of his bosses saw coming. Barely surviving, he tries to bring to safety a Pakistani colonel with information about the debacle, only to have that mission fall prey to forces more powerful and cunning than any he has faced before. Undaunted, and with failure not an option, Moore continues his quest for the truth, leaving many dead in his wake-killed by those for whom secrecy is the ultimate weapon. And then ...a shocking revelation: Two of the greatest threats to the security of the United States have forged an unholy alliance. After years of planning, the Taliban has come to terms with a vicious Mexican drug cartel for which they will supply opium. For the cartel, it is a matter of money, power, and ultimate control of the drug trade. But for the Taliban, it is an opportunity long awaited: to exploit the cartels and bring the fire of jihad to the hearts of the infidels. It is up to Moore, and his team, to infiltrate and dismantle the drug cartel, even as they hunt for those who would bring the ultimate terror and destruction to the streets of America. In a story that races from the remote, war-scarred landscapes of the Middle East to the blood-soaked chaos of the U.S.-Mexico border, Tom Clancy once again delivers a heart-stopping thriller that is frighteningly close to reality.

Although his father had been reluctant to become a field operative, Jack Ryan Jr wants nothing more. Privately training with a seasoned Special Forces drill instructor, he's honing his skills to transition his work within The Campus from intelligence analysis to hunting down and eliminating terrorists wherever he can.
