Story
Whether hunting warlords in Japan, druglords in Colombia, or nuclear terrorists in the United States, John Clark is efficient and deadly ? but even he has ghosts in his past, demons that must be exorcised. And nothing is more demonic than the peril he must face as the commander of a covert multi-national anti-terrorism squad known as Rainbow. Almost as soon as the group is formed, three terrorist attacks occur that seem unrelated at first, but may be the beginning of a new brand of terrorism like nothing the world has ever encountered before.

Story
President Jack Ryan faces a world crisis unlike any he has ever known. A high-level assassination attempt in Russia has the newly elected Ryan sending his most trusted eyes and ears - including antiterrorism specialist John Clark - to Moscow, for he fears the worst is yet to come. And he’s right. The attempt has left the already unstable Russia vulnerable to ambitious forces in China eager to fulfill their destiny. If they succeed, the world as we know it will never look the same. If they fail, the consequences may be unspeakable.

In the Soviet hills of Dushanbe near the Afghanistan border, an otherworldly array of pillars and domes rises into the night. Between the USA and the Soviet Union, no contest is more urgent than the race to build the first missile defense system, and no one knows that more than the two men charged with assessing the Soviet's capabilities: Colonel Mikhail Filitov of the Soviet Union, an old-line warrior distrusted by the army's new inner circle of technocrats, and CIA analyst Jack Ryan, hero of the Red October affair. Each must use all his craft to arrive at the truth, but Filitov gets there first?

But when a routine traffic stop on an isolated road in rural Texas leads to the discovery of a stolen USB stick, it becomes clear there is a dark connection between the attacks.

Publisher's Summary
When Moslem fundamentalists blow up a key Soviet oil complex, making an already critical oil shortage calamitous, the Russians figure they are going to have to take things into their own hands. They plan to seize the Persian Gulf, and more ambitiously, to neutralise NATO. Thus begins Red Storm, an audacious gamble that uses diplomatic maneuvers to cloak a crash military build-up. When Soviet tanks begin to roll, the West is caught off guard. What looks like a thrust turns into an all-out shooting war, possibly the climactic battle for control of the globe.
Critic Reviews
"Sheer grit and perserverance turn the tide in this chilling, fleshed-out war game. Readers emerge elated and breathless, with a new vision of war and its wins and losses. Clancy will win an army of fans who will be looking for more." (School Library Journal )
"He constantly taps the current world situation for its imminent dangers and spins them into an engrossing tale." (The New York Times Book Review)
"Heart-stopping action...entertaining and eminently topical." (The Washington Post)

Sorely let down by the narration
The narrator sounds like a computer generated voice and this title is slavishly read as the original text rather than actually read as a person would. The abbreviation mk. donating the work mark is read as it constituent letters M K as an example and this is done throughout. This is fine if you are familiar with the parlance but not so much if you are not.

Excellent book, plenty to keep you listening
Would you listen to Red Storm Rising again? Why?
I have re-listened to sections of the book, it has quite a lot of detail which suits a second listen
What was one of the most memorable moments of Red Storm Rising?
The battle descriptions
What does Michael Prichard bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Consistency with a lot of the other Clancy books I've listened to. He's become the go to voice of the earlier Clancy novels
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No, there is a lot to digest
Any additional comments?
Excellent book, well worth a listen. I would rate it in my top 3 of Clancy novels

Realistic view on what could have been
I'd read this book some 15 years ago or so. Listening to it again now, with the hindsight of more recent events and the state of world politics as it is now (in 2014) it's quite prescient about how things could have developed (particularly as regards "non-state aggressors"). The story actually moves along at a decent clip, so it didn't feel like you were plodding away through a long novel. That said, One of the weak points that I remember from reading the book applied to the audio version too. It's easy to lose track of all the characters, especially the Russian ones, as to who is who exactly. This is very true when it comes to players who you haven't seen/heard for a few chapters later on in the book.
Michael Prichard did a reasonable job narrating this, but he could do with a bit more variation for the characters. There's a few times where you have 3 or 4 characters talking, and it's too easy to find yourself losing track of who's saying what.
All in all it's a good book, if you're into techno thrillers, and it's one of Clancy's better ones, quite probably because it was an early one that he wrote completely himself, and without the more convoluted character history that eventually put me off the later Jack Ryan series (although Hunt For Red October is still a personal favourite. If you're listening to this, you'll want to do it in big chunks, just to make sure that you keep the story straight and get the most out of it.

A wonderful, gripping story.
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes. It's too good to keep to oneself.
What about Michael Prichard’s performance did you like?
A professional rendition in a very acceptable accent.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
The arranged explosion at the Kremlin.
Any additional comments?
It is easy to see just how easy it could be to start the next war.

I last read this book nearly 30 years ago on first publication. It's sheer scale was as immense as back then, and always looked forward to my next story fix. Just wish someone had the time and money to plough into a TV adaptation, as the big screen would be far too limiting for this story.

Includes fascinating account of submarine warfare (ref to this book came from Hunter Killers by Ian Ballantyne) as well as other theatres. You can tell Clancy did his homework.
