IIRC there's not a lot of action in the book, and what there is doesn't involve Jack Ryan

The only action scenes I do remember - the attack on the kindergarten, and Clark and Chavez sneak into Tehran to guide a smart bomb.

I suppose you'd have a lot of characters you don't care about coughing up blood, so there's that.
