Welcome to episode 100 of Course of Action. This episode is incredibly special, not just because of the Memorial Day release, but because it's also the 40th Anniversary of the legendary book by Tom Clancy, "The Hunt For Red October", a book that started the techno-thriller craze.
Brian Andrews and Jeff Wilson, already legendary authors in their own right, were tapped to write the next several Jack Ryan books and their first offering is a huge swing for the fences in "Act of Defiance", a sequel to "Red October".
Brian and Jeff are both Navy veterans, so this book is more than just a sequel. It's a massive tip of the hat to America's armed forces, specifically the Naval servicemen they call brothers and sisters. Listen in as Jeff and Brian discuss their research, getting the phone call to write for Clancy, and how they put together a sequel unlike any other sequel I've ever read.
Act of Defiance is a 6-star read on a 5-star rating, and so nostalgiac it will have you starting the Clancy books all over again.
