ReviewsPraise for Tom Clancy Power and Empire "Marc Cameron has written a perfectly played 'chess match' that would certainly make Tom Clancy proud. Jack Ryan has remained, through more than a few authors who have taken on the job, a formidable hero that no one has been able to match. Having the new 'spice' that Cameron has added to the series offers a fresh voice to a world that will continue for some time."-- Suspense Magazine "Superior...Cameron delivers plenty of action along with the spycraft and weapons details that Tom Clancy fans have always loved...Cameron successfully juggles the three separate plot lines, each engrossing on its own, and seamlessly stitches them together by novel's end...All the writers who have contributed to this series since Clancy's death have been good, but Cameron's formidable performance puts him at the head of the pack."-- Publishers Weekly "[Cameron] enters Clancyworld with the chops to allow the formidable Clark and the president-we-wish-we-had Ryan to save the world again...Another turbocharged, take-no-prisoners Ryan yarn."-- Kirkus Reviews "Picks up the mantle of Tom Clancy's epic Jack Ryan series, and delivers a solid initial entry...Cameron does a particularly good job of capturing the complexity of John Clark, one of the series most beloved and complex heroes."--New York Journal of Books "Cameron rises to the challenge of replacing Mark Greaney to continue Tom Clancy's franchise in high-powered fashion...A terrific, high-concept political thriller written with the same finesse and style that Clancy's fans have come to expect."--The Real Book Spy
