Book was dick.

We shouldn't be there, but we should be there, but we shouldn't be there.

He couldn't decide so I couldn't care.

The next book, Sum of All Fears, is worlds better from a literary perspective, although it has a bit less action.

Movies have all been dick except for the first one.  By any cinematic standard, the ending of Patriot Games was one of the worst ever filmed.

I don't know about that.  My favorite novel by him so far is The Cardinal of the Kremlin.  Just awesome, man.  It's almost a shame it could never be made into a movie.

My take was that it's a complex question that he wasn't trying to answer - cause it's political.  He leaves it to the reader to decide.

No disagreement there, Cardinal is a masterpiece.

I couldn't agree more with your last comment.  The ending was so incredibly HOLLYWOOD!
