One of my main issues with him is that he seems to inject sex into it, and bad sex at that.
It's "bad sex" that would really annoy me. But he's not the only author guilty of that sin. See the comments elsewhere on recent Laurel K. Hamilton books.

I agree, his last "Jack Ryan" book got on my nerves a bit. I was hoping he'd do better with his son, but no.
The main problem is that he put Ryan onto the fast track as far as the career goes and unless he wants to make him world emperor, there isn't a place for him to go.
I was almost hoping for a follow up Jack Ryan novel where he has to deal with a move to impeach him over his actions in the previous book. Given the current political climate, that's what I would expect to happen. Too many congresscritters would be unhappy that their butts weren't kissed and their opinion wasn't asked about the actions, never mind that there likely wasn't time to do so...
