At the age of 66. I've never read any of his works, but I hear he has quite a large following.
It's always a shame when big authors kick the bucket.

When the Government shut down, Clancy shut down as well.

I've read one of his books and liked it a lot better than the video games that were made.

RIP Tom Clancy.

R.I.P. TC.

If remember being introduced to his books through the movie "The Hunt for Red October". Too bad the other movies based on his books weren't as good.

Some great games come to mind when that guy is mentioned. Sometimes I think the games inspired other games.

He was much more focused on literature than he was on video games. Almost all the TC games were based on his novels.

Probably gonna sound like a pleb here, but my Tom Clancy experience is restricted to the video games that carried his name, but I certainly loved them. RIP brotha.

He wrote fun books. R.I.P.

Earlier tonight, in honor of the late Mr. Clancy my bar trivia team named ourselves "The Sum of All Beers."

Well that's a shame. I didn't know what he looked like prior to this post, nor have I read any of the literate works... but I have played a shitload of the games his works inspired... if those works were inspired by his other works and not completely new works. If so, I hope there's still material for many more.

RIP

Tom Clancy didn't write the Splinter Cell novels, so they aren't going anywhere.

Don't really know of him that well to be honest.

Its sad that he's passed away- I've even read The Hunt For Red October novel because of seeing the movie.
