Tom Clancy Full Force and Effect, a book by Mark Greaney will be out next month. Force and Effect is being published one year after the death of Tom Clancy, a best selling author and longtime collaborator of Mark Greaney.
Tom Clancy Full Force and Effect, a new book by author Mark Greaney will be released on December 2nd via Putnam Adult.
Greaney has published three political thriller novels in the Tom Clancy universe since his death in October 2013.
Tom Clancy and Mark Greaney worked on Command Authority that was published on December 3rd, 2013 and Support and Defend that was made available in July of 2014. The two authors first teamed up in 2012 for Threat Vector.
In Tom Clancy Full Force and Effect, a North Korean ICBM crashes into the Sea of Japan, while a veteran CIA officer is found dead in Ho Chi Minh City and as always Jack Ryan Jr. has too much to handle.
Here is a synopsis of the novel that mainly focuses on Ryan dealing with a dictator, who is ready to show the world that he is as bold as his late father (that leader is slightly reminiscent of Kim Jong-un, the head of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea):
The challenge facing President Jack Ryan is an old one with a terrifying new twist. The international stalemate with North Korea continues into its seventh decade. A young, untested dictator is determined to prove his strength by breaking the deadlock. Like his father before him, he hangs his plans on the country’s nuclear ambitions. Until now, that program was impeded by a lack of resources. However, there has been a dramatic change in the nation’s economic fortune. A rich deposit of valuable minerals have been found in the Hermit Kingdom. Coupled with their nuclear capabilities, the money from this find will make North Korea a dangerous force on the world stage.
Clancy’s first book, The Hunt for Red October, was published in 1984. He sold more 300,000 hardcover and 2 million paperback copies of the book thanks to President Ronald Reagan, who praised it by calling the novel “the best yarn.”
The author went on to have eighteen #1 New York Times bestselling novels and many of them were turned into films such as Patriot Games, The Sum of All Fears and Clear and Present Danger.
