Why is Clancy widely hated here?

Because he just writes the saddest fucking books in existence.

You know when you hate yourself, and you hate your job, so you spend hours fantasizing about impressing that girl you see every day but have never talked to, and you fantasize about telling your boss to go fuck himself in front of everybody and mike dropping the fuck out and buying a motorcycle?

That's what reading a Clancy book is.

Didn't he actually serve in the military? That analogy doesn't make sense since his books tangentially reflect his life

>>9781591
that's not why people read them

I hate him because he pimped out his name on books he didn't write and fucking video games.

>>9781499
Netforce is actually a pretty gripping read.

>>9781606
>video games
As I understand it, that was Red Storm's decision, not his

>>9781622
He had no control over the use of his name/brand? Being a shitty businessman is another reason to despise him.

Fun fact, four years later, his death is still a mystery. Maybe his team of ghost writers can turn it into a gripping thriller?

>>9781601
What the fuck does that mean? Just because I read The Alchemist doesn't mean I fantasize about being a spanish boy looking for treasure

>>9781631
He is a Pentagon/DoD propagandist im sure he lives a very comfortable life on the taxpayer sugar-tit, doesnt sound like a shitty business to me.

Red Storm Rising is enjoyable for a CMANO autist

although everytime he tries to write about anything more human than a Tu-22M he fucks it

if there is one writer who shouldn't write sex scenes its Clancy

>>9781687
How does the average sex scene in one of his books go down? Regale us with some classic Clance espionage/op erotica.

>Clark smiled at Roisin in the way that men only do with their wives, and those with whom they've faced death. She made no move towards him from the divan, but her eyes were all the invitation he needed. His right hand had already made its way down the smooth of his belly and inside his boxers; with his left, he deftly unbuckled first his belt and then his jeans button.

>With two measured strides, he put himself before Roisin--pants crumpling to his ankles and his swelling tool swaying slightly from the disturbance. He thought he could see the barest hint of a smile tweak the corner of her mouth.

>"I had no idea you were this obsessed with muzzle discipline," quipped Roisin through her growing smile, referring to the way Clark's member veered off nearly 6° to the right. Clark half-grunted, half laughed—followed in short order by a soft inhalation as he felt Roisin's comparatively cool palm cradle his testicles. Though his eyes had closed, he could feel her draw closer by the growing tickle of her breath on his engorged glans. He reached for a still-wrapped Trojan Bareskin, selected for its nearly peerless 45 micron thickness

I laughed out loud

>>9782341
Lol that was great!

I'm Russian. We love games based on his writings.

Is this how Americans imagine sex?

>>9783564
As an American I can tell you we are an extremely unsexy country. We just have no culture of eroticism and tasteful arousal.

>>9783573
I don't know, I think it's definitely there, it's just not a part of the American image.

>>9782341
There is no fucking way that this shit is real

I had an embarrassed wank as a teenager to the scenes in Rainbow Six where the evil scientist were experimenting on people but one of them was watching two of them fuck on the security cameras.

>implying Clancy is even thought of here

>>9782341

Honestly, he should just drop the war shit and only write novel-length erotica from now on

>>9785110
Yeah, I remember that. Didn't they pump the couple full of hormones or something, and basically mind-controlled them to fuck? It was like something out of fetish porn.

>>9782341
even his sex scenes are tactical

>>9783573
What does that even mean? I fuck, dude

I like him. There's no pretensions to literary brilliance. I've never heard of him making some statement about the world's social ills. This is the only picture I've seen of him. His books are fine for riding on airplanes and he seemed to understand that.

>>9781490
Because this is a literature board.
