Two men possess vital data on Russia’s Star Wars missile defense system. One of them is CARDINAL—America's highest agent in the Kremlin—and he's about to be terminated by the KGB. The other is the one American who can save CARDINAL and lead the world to the brink of peace...or war.
Customer Reviews
One of the best books of all time
Not just a great one from Tom Clancy but one of the great books of the era!
Years late, but finally got around to a brilliant book!
This continues the story of Jack Ryan nicely! Even though it does not revolve around him, it creates a beautiful chance to develop new characters that we all know and love in the newer books!
Clancy’s Best
Hunt for Red October gets all the attention, and of course several other of Clancy’s books have become movies, TV shows, and video games. But, after re-reading Cardinal once again, I think this is Clancy’s best. The characters are far more three-dimensional than in Red October, the themes are more nuanced, and all the far-flung, competing plots come together brilliantly.
