Query: Filling a book quota?

I've read all of Clancy's major fiction and some of the non-fiction, and I am generally a big fan. Unfortunately, I think that he's in an 0-2 slump. Red Rabbit was boring. Teeth of the Tiger is not so much boring as it is not compelling. Maybe Clancy is trying to portray real espionage for what it is, fairly dull. I am far from a literary snob, but I found the conversations to be methodical and forced, and the lack of action - or even tension, to be very apparent.I surely hope for better Clancy soon. I agree with some other reviews that the only purpose of this book seemed to have was to introduce characters for later books. Or maybe TC was just trying to meet a quota.
