why didn't he kill him at the end though

Tom Clancy's Patriot Games is a non stop action thriller. When Jack Ryan, a history teacher at the Naval Acadamy in Annapolis and part time CIA analyst, foils a royal abduction attempt by an Irish terrorist group, the Ulster Liberation Army, he makes some very dangerous enemies.

If you want to read a really good Clancy book try

You think this book is perfect!!??
<br>This is one of the last books worth reading by Tom Clancy.
<br>
<br>Most of the stuff he has churned out at a rapid rate since this is trash.
<br>
<br>I stick with the good stuff - Cardinal of the kremlin, clear and present danger, Hunt for Red october, and of course, red storm rising.
