Was it Red Storm Rising? That's pretty much all action.

I think it was called that.....

I haven't read much of Clancy mainly because he's an idiot.

But Without Remorse was pretty good. I suggest you read that.

Won't be Red Storm Rising, that's a pretty brick like book and around 1/2 is diplomacy, espionage, and "b**ody hell there are scores of Russians attacking us" type stuff, before the Nato forces engage.

I've tried a few other authors like Chris Ryan, Colin Forbes, Ken Nicholls etc but they never seem to be as good. The Cell by Colin Forbes was sooooooo stupid it was beyond belief.
