About this listen

Jack Ryan Jr.--along with the covert warriors of the Campus--continues to uphold his legendary father’s legacy of courage and honor in this thriller from number one New York Times bestselling author Tom Clancy.

Privately training with special forces, he’s honing his combat skills to continue his work within the Campus, hunting down and eliminating terrorists wherever he can--even as Jack Ryan Sr. campaigns to become President of the United States again.

But what neither father nor son knows is that the political and personal have just become equally dangerous. A devout enemy of Jack Sr. launches a privately-funded vendetta to discredit him and connect him to a mysterious killing in his longtime ally John Clark’s past. All they have to do is catch him.

With Clark on the run, it’s up to Jack Jr. to stop a growing threat emerging in the Middle East, where a corrupt Pakistani general has entered into a deadly pact with a fanatical terrorist to procure four nuclear warheads they can use to blackmail any world power into submission--or face annihilation.

Horrible

This starts out OK but soon devolves into a thinly veiled republican neoconservative propaganda tale. Military = Good, privatized military = Better. Republican = good, Democrats and liberals = bad, ugly, fat & traitors.

I am no hippie terrorist lover, I actually used to work in WTC 2 in 2001 but this simplistic drivel is way below Tom and I hope Mark Greaney runs a mile from future projects, I really liked his past book.

Avoid.

Locked On delivers!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

For those who enjoy action and suspense, this book delivers both in a way that marries the story to the current geo-political reality of our times. Tom Clancy never fails to deliver and Lou Diamond Phillips reads it beautifully.

What did you like best about this story?

The action and the characters I've come to

What does Lou Diamond Phillips bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

He reads it as I would in my own head, which makes this question tricky to answer. For me, his acting ability helps him bring the characters to life in a believeable, genuine way.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It was extremely entertaining and something I was anxious to resume everytime I had to pause.

Any additional comments?

Audible's audiobooks are a great way to enhance the time one must spend on the more mundane activities of life maintenance, and a fantastic travel companion on short or long trips.

One of the better Jr. Books

Would you listen to Locked On again? Why?

Sure it is a story with so many parts I might have missed something that would make the confusing clearer.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Locked On?

The End once you hear it you will agree.

What does Lou Diamond Phillips bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

First book by him will look for more.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Nope

A good story but waaay overdoes the politics

I think I may have sprained something in my head rolling my eyes at the politics in this book. This is no comment on whether or not I agree with him, he just overdoes it... a lot.

The story has many of the elements of a good Clancy read but somehow doesn't capture his ability to tell a story. I just finished The Cardinal of the Kremlin which I'd read years ago and it renewed my love of a great Tom Clancy book. The Jack Ryan meme is getting a little far fetched at this point too. Good story, not great. I'd recommend it but with the suggestion that if you come in to this book with low expectations it will probably be an easier listen.

awsome reader for this one!!

If you could sum up Locked On in three words, what would they be?

I want more!!!!

What was one of the most memorable moments of Locked On?

John Clarke on the run and the lenghts he goes through reminds me of days of old ( No Remorse ,another great one I recomend ) And the ending! WOW!!!

Have you listened to any of Lou Diamond Phillips’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes. Dead or Alive. Nice to have alot of different voices to put with the characters, finally brings Clarke and Ding to life in a whole new way. Thanks LDP!!!

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Believe me I wanted to.

Any additional comments?

I hope LDP does the next book in the Jack Ryan series I drive overnight and I am very entertained. Thanks for keeping me up!!

Too long and convoluted

A good start, but the story was like a Jackson Pollack painting scattering storylines, characters, and underdeveloped connections everywhere

Great story, narration

Since I joined audible, I've listened to 6 novels. All were authored by Tom Clancy.

There's a reason for that.
