Summary: Rainbow Six
Review: This book is absolutely awesome! It is full of heart-beating suspense throughout almost all the nine hundred pages. Two words describe it. ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING! Domingo Chavez is simply darn cool and the terrorists rock, especially Brightling. The plot was great. Don't screw it.

Summary: Rainbow Six a Rush ride
Review: Clancy has done it again. after his bestseller hits Patriot Games and Clear and Present danger, this Military expert takes us to the scene of his challenging story. How an international anti-terrorist strike team would work and what kind of opposition they would face. The book is a page turner filled with realistic accion that leaves you at the edge of wherever it is you read. If you are a Clancy fan you will be comforted by the appearance of John Clark and Chavez.

Summary: Rainbow Six Review
Review: A fast paced Clancy novel with such detail and realism it seems as if it had already happened, and Clancy was merely recounting the events so ingeniously concieved in this four-star book. Reccomended to anyone with a good imagination and a taste for danger and suspense.

Summary: Clancy blasts enviro-whackos
Review: Nothing better than Tom Clancy giving hell to the tree huggers. He should write a sequel about what happens to the group of people who are left to "embrace" nature.

Summary: Clancy's best
Review: I've read most of Clancy's other books, and I think this is if not his best, at least among the top three. His characteristic tehnological detail and likable characters make the length of this book undaunting. Ex-SEAL Clark has a large role in Rainbow Six. He keeps the action coming; this book is very hard to put down.

Summary: Tom Clancy hasn't lost his touch!
Review: What can I say? Wow! Right from the start, that most excellent of storytellers, Tom Clancy, throws us into action with a detailed yet gripping account of a hijacking. In some of his previous books (most notably Patriot Games, Executive Orders and The Sum of All Fears) the story dies for a hundred pages or more as Clancy explains the story (and regrettably, this has resulted in many readers stopping reading mid-way through a book...But no more. Rainbow Six keeps up the heart pumping action right the way through as though there is no tomorrow - and there may well not be! Long as it is, Clancy has once again kept my full attention resulting in late nights, staying up far too late turning page by page to find out WHAT HAPPENS! I was worried that Clancy was beginning to dull in his stories, having read Executive Orders which was explosively exciting in the last pages but, I felt, took too long to get there. And having read the co-authored Op-Centers, I was very worried as they all lacked the quick pace and exciting realism common to many Clancy books. However, I felt that singling out environmentalists as the bad guys was not a good marketing move (if not resulting in an excellent book!) and that their methods and ideals were not credible enough to bring a true sense of realism. I did enjoy the fantastic end to the story and hope that, true to Clancy style, Dmitry Popov will appear in another book in the near furture! And for the second time, Clancy has focused the book on John Kelly (otherwise known as Clark). Clark has definitely changed since the torture days portrayed in Without Remorse, become more mature, even mellowed in age. I missed good old Jack Ryan however although Clancy referred to Clark's good relationship with "The President". I felt that Jack deserved more place although, I think Clancy may have brought an end to Jack Ryan as a major role in Executive Orders. Keen followers of Clancy will note how Jack gradually rose through the ranks - ordinary history teacher and a lucky stock investor, then working at CIA, eventually becoming, DDO, DDI and eventually head of the CIA (which I believe is DCI, right?). Then going on to National Security Advisor, Vice-President (albeit for a short time) and finally President. I can think of no higher occupation for Ryan and this leads me to believe Clancy has decided to leave him out of future novels. I hope I am wrong... Is Clancy, in his usual portrayal of realistic events (as opposed to fantasy ones) going to let John Clark and Jack Ryan simply die of old age? Whilst this would be true to form, they would be sorely missed, and only Ding seems to be able to replace either of them. Are future books to hold only Domingo Chavez and not the beloved Clark-Chavez team? Will Jack retire? We can't tell. Clancy has shrouded us in a black cloak of curiosity until he chooses to reveal antoher piece of the unending story he weaves. And even then, we surely will not get the last piece of the puzzle. We will be left again to wait until it is time... This excerpt was written by Chris Kreft. I am an avid Clancy fan (in case you couldn't tell) and have nearly all the books he has written from "Red October" to "Executive Orders" (I'm only missing "Clear and Present Danger") as well as all the Op Center books. I have also read some of Clancy's other books such as SSN and regard myself as a well-informed reveiwer of his books. Thanks for reading, and Happy New Year! Chris Kreft (ckinusa3712@aol.com)
