He looked dead on like my old band director Bob McComb.

Seriously. So fucking sad.

I just finished rereading every single book in the Ryan/Ryan Jr. series again earlier this year (in chronological order) and I was so excited about the next one coming in December. I had no idea it would be the last one from his mind.

RIP Tom Clancy. You were one bad SOB.

Boo.

I loved *The Hunt For Red October* when I read in 5th grade. One of my favorites, and I still have a small collection of his work to get through at home as well.

Looks like Jack Ryan is on permanent furlough. :(

Clancy lived in my county in MD, pretty much a legend around here, definitely will be missed.

Sad indeed. Loved his books. I'll have to get an audio book for my road trip this weekend in his memory. Maybe red storm rising?

I know we have almost an entire load dedicated to tom Clancy books. I might go buy "the bear and the dragon" in his memory.

It might come out post-moredem. I think a lot of his books are back logged and while he's working on one he'll release a backlogged one as a kind of buffer. That's my theory anyways otherwise I don't know how the man writes a 500-600 page book in like 2 months.

His mailbox looked like an aircraft carrier. He and LarryBond were gamers.

That really sucks. I liked "Red Storm Rising", but "Without Remorse" was always my favorite... I could always relate with Kelly in that one.
