: I am a big Tom Clancy fan, but ... : Red Rabbit feels very different from the other books. Tom Clancy seems to have changed his attitude to any non-Americans (apart from the British maybe). In his earlier books he always wrote about Russians, Germans, Israelis, ... with respect and his characters respected their adversaries (There are a few exceptions, e.g. the Iranian leader, the Indian prime minister as well as some Chinese Characters, the Vitnamese). : But he never focused his characters' hate on a whole people (in Red Rabbit the Eastern Germans and Russians). : Moreover Jack Ryan seems to have changed his mind to an opinion which is common in the US, but arrogant: Anything that comes from Russia is obsolete. That contradicts what he thought in "The Hunt for Red October" : I have not done any research here, so this is just to be regarded as a feeling, but Im fairly confident that going through those books would turn up supporting evidence. : I wouldnt care if there was a ghostwriter who would keep Clancy's style, and what I am reading in Red Rabbit is by no means bad, I just dont like the change of attitude. : I am neither Russian, nor American, nor Eastern German and I have read all Tom Clany Novels, so I see this from an independent point of view. : Has anyone else made this experience? Or the opposite?
