Although I'm not fond at all of Tom Clancy's politics, which bleed into some of his books a lot IMO, I do have fond memories of his really looooong title, The Bear and the Dragon, which I picked up in a London airport and read all the way back home across the Atlantic, back in DTB days, after I had totally run out of the books that I had brought with me on a long combined work/vacation trip to Europe. Bear saved me from having to (1) work , (2) reread something, (3) actually open the seatback magazine, (4) watch the airline movies, or (5) sleep (which I did do some of too ).

It is so so awesome to be able to carry as many books as I want on my phone, or on an e-ink reader for long trips!

In any case, Bear has dropped to $1.99 at Kindle and Kobo US.

President Jack Ryan faces a world crisis unlike any he has ever known in Tom Clancy's extraordinary #1 New York Times bestseller.

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—and change the face of the world as we know it...
