Andrews & Wilson writing for TOM CLANCY (Defense Protocol) are on the Radar!
Manage episode 453344934 series 3362905
Bestselling duo Brian Andrews and Jeffrey Wilson return to BOOKSTORM Podcast to discuss DEFENSE PROTOCOL, the newest release in the #1 New York Times bestselling Jack Ryan series by Tom Clancy! The stakes are sky-high when a power-mad Chinese president threatens Taiwan - we cover all aspects of this emotional, intellectual and sometimes physically painful trip into modern warfare! We talked about the next generation of the Ryan family, Katie, and how she does not necessarily feel prepared or equipped for the high-pressure situations in which she finds herself. How does anyone move forward with any confidence? Katie's interactions with her father, President Ryan, were fascinating to us! We also loved discussing the Qiu Lei, Autumn Thunder, aka the Spider. She was a “support asset” aiding the CIA’s human intelligence in China for over 15 years. Given her Kung Fu training and extensive educational background in math, science, history, and rhetoric, we think she might just be an example of a perfect military. You will not believe our discussion about how the Chinese government uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to perform facial recognition, movement tracking, and pattern recognition. Is information the new currency? Although this approach seems contrary to our values, are we unwittingly feeding into it by offering so much information on social media? As always, this writing team is here to talk about the deep subjects and we're loving it!
