Line 16:
* ''[[The Bear and the Dragon]]'' -- China, facing an economic and political crisis, [[China Takes Over the World|decides to invade Russia.]] The U.S. must cement a friendship with its once-greatest foe to fight off the aggressor. But what will Ryan do when the threat turns nuclear?
* ''[[The Teeth of the Tiger]]'' The U.S. is now engaged in a global war on terrorism, in response to the September 11th attacks which occurred in the Ryanverse as they did in the real world. The wars in [[Afghanistan]] and [[Iraq]] occurred in the Ryanverse continuity, and the Jerusalem treaty signed in ''The Sum of All Fears'' has failed, as Israelis and Palestinians went back to fighting each other.
* ''[[Dead or Alive (novel)|Dead or Alive]]'' - The Emir, mastermind of the terrorists from the previous novel, has even grander attacks planned against the United States, and the Campus, set up to do for the US what official intelligence agencies cannot by Jack Ryan Sr., now must stop him for good.
* ''[[Locked On]]'' - Jack Ryan Sr. is running for president again., while the current president tries to find ways to discredit Ryan. In the process, John Clark becomes a fugitive while a thought defeated enemy tries to use these efforts for revenge against the Campus.
* ''[[Threat Vector]]'' - Ryan has been sworn in as President of the United States after having been elected the previous year. Meanwhile, the Chinese have recovered from their defeat in ''The Bear and the Dragon'', this time intent on taking out Taiwan, and this time, they are much better prepared, to the point the Campus finds itself facing a mirror image of itself when they try to interfere.
