Audiobook Review: Tom Clancy Oath of Office by Marc Cameron read by Scott Brick

FacebooktwitterFacebooktwitter

Tom Clancy Oath of Office is the latest book in the #1 New York Times Best-Selling Jack Ryan series of Thrillers and I am very glad to report that Marc Cameron did a fantastic job writing the new adventure and that Scott Brick delivers another perfect performance.

As you might know, if you follow my reviews, I hate spoilers so, without me giving any of the key plot points away, I will tell you that Jack Ryan is back for another heart stopping adventure! Oh, yeah, and it’s not only Jack, since we have the entire Campus team back in action. The story is great and the plot is strong and very well thought out.

The plot is filled with twists and turns, the action moves at breakneck speeds from the United States to Iran, from Portugal to Russia and after that from Cameroon to Afghanistan and so on.

The story is so good and so brilliantly written that I found myself keeping my breath from time to time… Near the end are some explosive moments, filled with non stop action that will keep you on the edge of your seat… There are guns, terrorists, gadgets, hackers, espionage, tech details about weapons, aircrafts and computers, there are spies, hand to hand combat, hostage rescue missions, helicopters, planes, boats, bombs, politics and lots of fast paced drama…

Beware, once you start reading, you might not want to stop!

Scott Brick is one of the best narrators out there, in an industry full of talented artists, and his contribution to this series makes it even more immersive and highly enjoyable!

The amazing Scott Brick returns once more to the Jack Ryan universe and brings to life old friends. He reads, he acts, he uses his accents in order to help the listener differentiate between the vast variety of characters of different nationalities. At the same time it’s clear that he enjoys the story and has a good time delivering another Stellar performance. Scott changes with ease between President Ryan, Jack Jr., John Clark, Ding, a Russian spy, a sadistic Iranian assassin and many others.

If you are a Tom Clancy / Jack Ryan fan, or just prefer thrillers and espionage, you will absolutely love Tom Clancy Oath of Office. Mr. Cameron is on his second Jack Ryan book, after he took over from the talented Mark Greaney in 2017, but he manages to deliver a great Jack Ryan adventure in the style of its original creator…

Publisher’s Summary 

 
Marine officer. CIA analyst. President. Jack Ryan has devoted his life to protecting the United States. What if this time, he can’t? President Ryan and the Campus return in the latest entry in Tom Clancy’s #1 New York Times-bestselling series.

Freedom may have finally arrived in Iran. As protests break out across the country, the media rejoices over the so-called Persian Spring. Western leaders are ecstatic. Members of Congress and the Cabinet clamor to back the rebels. Only President Jack Ryan remains wary.

Meanwhile, he has plenty to handle at home. A deadly strain of flu is ravaging the United States as spring floods decimate the Southeast. An unethical senator wants to bring down the Ryan presidency and is willing to lean on fabricated bot-planted stories to do it.

But the scariest story is the most closely guarded one. Two Russian nuclear missiles have been hijacked. The Campus gets their first break when Jack Junior connects with a rogue Russian intelligence officer in Afghanistan–only to be abducted soon after arriving. John Clark and the rest of the Campus team race to track the missiles and rescue their colleague.

As sensationalized stories spin out of control and the stolen missiles remain out of reach, President Ryan’s toughest challenge emerges: How do you meet an enemy head on, when he won’t even show you his face?
