His code name is Mr. Clark, and his work for the CIA is brilliant, cold-blooded and efficient... But who is he really? In a harrowing tour de force, Tom Clancy shows how an ordinary man named John Kelly crossed the lines of justice and morality to become the CIA legend Mr. Clark. --Ce texte provient de la Audio Cassette édition.

4.0étoiles sur 5 Superb, Mai 4 2003
This review is from: Without Remorse (Paperback)
Clancy's talent lies in producing characters that have real motivations, while his weakness tends to be in over-elaborating his plots and wiring them to a subconsciously irritating pro-American world view. No problems there really, coz he's American and is supposed to be pro-USA. But it does get under the skin just how often we have to swallow the concept that America's military people are the finest creatures ever to grace the planet. This problem does dog Without Remorse but not as much as in other novels. As a result, the emotions he manages to generate around John Clark are wonderfully ambiguous and gripping. In a similar vein to the Day of the Jackal, we find ourselves cheering on a man who is bent on killing without legal sanction. His own struggle to justify this to himself in the latter stages is by turns fascinating and annoying as it veers towards Clancy's veneration of the military honour code. This book is at its best when it combines emotional tension with Clancy's superb grasp of action writing. The decompression chamber episode is particularly enthralling. As others have commented, WR is a good first Clancy read for the uninitiated as it is mercifully free of the most cloying Americana and techno-babble.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Techno thriller of the highest order, Nov. 9 2007
This review is from: Without Remorse (Paperback)
If you have ever been bullied and wanted revenge, wanted sweet, brutal revenge, wanted to have your tormentors bruised and bloodied and begging for mercy, then this is the book for you.

John Kelly is one of those archetypical Hollywood American heroes--the quiet, honorable soldier who, when pushed, is capable of doling out large doses of mayhem.

I liked the book, honest. But I think Clancy missed a chance to plumb a deeper emotional well and show what a man in his situation would endure.

You have a man who has gone through a truly horrible experience, the death of his wife and unborn child. I don't want to say Clancy glossed over that tragedy, but his wife's death didn't create the same kind of anguish that Pam's death does. That anguish leads Kelly to begin what amounts to a serial murder spree.

Now, sure, these guys "deserved" to die. They were drug dealers, pushers, scum, etc, and the world isn't worse off now that they're no longer breathing. But...you just don't go around whacking people you hate, no matter what they did to deserve it.

Or, if you do, it should be treated with much more depth and sophistication than Clancy does in this book. Did I root for Kelly to waste the bad guys and gain his revenge? Yup.

But there should have more consequences for his actions. The title of the book is "Without Remorse", and that troubled me. Have I ever fantasized about being a highly trained killer and deftly disposing of that bully in junior high who always punched my in the hallway? You betcha.

But I didn't because of the laws of the land, which state that if I do that kinda thing, I go to jail, which is bad. John Kelly gets to act as his own judge, jury, and executioner, and while he has to "die" for his crimes, the book leaves no doubt that we are to consider Kelly a hero, and his acts heroic.

Clancy is often criticized for painting characters in stark black and white, and in this book he missed a chance to show a character who is many shades of grey. Kelly/Clark is a "shadowy" character, and should not be characterized simply as one of the good guys.

He is a man of honor, a man of action, a man you definitly want on your side, but he's not "good". To call him that is to diminish both Kelly and the book.

This review is from: Without Remorse (Paperback)
Although the Jack Ryan fans are used to the books building on one another, this one features a side character. This book can be read by anyone who feels that books just can't do it for them. I have lent this book to three or four others, and the ones who actually read it loved it! It's a great book!

You do not have to know about Clancy's previous books to enjoy this one; that alone makes it a good selection in some cases. I would think that this book would be enjoyed by anyone who likes action movies.
