Op commando (Jack Ryan Book 16)

The depiction of international diplomacy felt very real and nuanced. I'm curious if current events influenced these choices or if they were purely fictional constructs.

The story moved so quickly that I sometimes struggled to keep up with all the action. Was this a deliberate choice to heighten suspense or a reflection of the genre?

I was fascinated by how Ryan balances diplomacy and combat skills. I wonder if real military or intelligence figures influenced this portrayal.
