Description

Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan: Ghost War is out now on Prime Video!

A rogue nuclear Russian submarine is steaming toward the East Coast of the United States. For President Jack Ryan, memories of past events may seem stunningly vivid, but the dangers are terrifyingly real in the latest entry in this #1 New York Times bestselling series.


US intelligence is reporting turmoil in the Russian navy. Their deadliest submarine, the Belgorod, has unexpectedly launched, and taken along with it a long list of questions. Who authorized the departure? What mission is it on? And, most disturbing of all, what weapons do the giant doors on the sub’s bow hide?

It's been four decades since a similar incident with the Soviet sub, Red October, ended happily, thanks to a young CIA analyst named Jack Ryan.

Now, President Jack Ryan finds himself with fleets of ships, squadrons of jets, and teams of SEALs at his command, but what he doesn’t have is insight into the plans of the Belgorod’s commander. It falls to a younger generation of Ryans to do the dangerous work that will reveal that information.

But there’s always a price to be paid. When the final moments tick away, will Jack Ryan have to choose between the safety of his country and the safety of his child?

    What a fun ride…taking me from the early Clancy days of crisp white pages and tying it to today, from my iPad!Great move having Ramses join and then Ryan breaking down to share the story with Katie in the last page. Well done and good respect shown to the OG Mr Tom Clancy.

    Thus truly sets the stage for the new generation of CUA analyst- captured your imagination and it’s a story worthy of a film in the making. I loved the dramatic espionage and suspenseful ending Martin
  • A proper sequel for the Red October

    Enjoyed this story and how it tied back to the very first Jack Ryan adventure. One of the better entries in the series and brings us a new Ryan child to add to the series.

    I really enjoyed this novel. It pays an appropriate respect to the Hunt for Red October without being a copy or “borrowing” story elements. Solid character work and an appropriate amount of tension it feels at home in the Clancy universe. My only critique is the pop culture references take me out of the novel a bit and feel a bit foreign in a Clancy book
