Summary: I was disappointed!
Review: This book was extremely disappointing. I stopped at the 100th page, hoping for it to get better at page 50 but it didn't. I only gave this book 2 stars because the beginning was suspencful and entertaining. During the first 10 pages I was so pleased and I thought I was into a real adventure, but then it got a little too complex and the action was just plain boring. After reading Tom Clancy's Net Force, Debt of Honor, and Executive Orders, Rainbow Six was just plain. . . BORING! I'm looking forward to reading Patriot Games soon, but after reading Rainbow Six I'm not so sure about Tom Clancy's books, although that'll change soon after reading Patriot Games.

Summary: Rainbow Six
Review: Not one of his best. Some of the characters were not fully developed, others not introduced at all. The ones that we were allowed to meet were done excellently which probably whetted my appetite to meet the others. The diabolical plan/plot is plausible but the conclusion is anti-climactic.

Summary: #1 Clancy Book
Review: This is the best book written by Clancy, however, Jack Ryan is nowhere in this. There are several references to "the president", and only one time do they actually say "Jack" in this. However, what makes this book the best is that it would be so easy for someone todo something like this. This is definatly Clancy at his best. Clark and Chavez definatly bring it home in this. Its a very long book, but it is a page turner. Great novel for anyone who wants some excellent reading.

Summary: AMAZING!
Review: The first Tom Clancy book I ever read was Patriot Games. After reading it I instantly chose him as my favorite author. Then I read some more books of his like The Cardinal of the Kremlin and Red Storm Rising, and I was dissapointed to say the least. He seemed to be writing manuals with little, if any, action in them at all. This book has totally restored my faith in him. It carries along at a breakneck speed and you can barely put it down. It may not be the most realistic book in the world, but it is certainly one of the most entertaining books I've read.

Summary: Pretty good book
Review: This book was quite long, but i liked it alot overall. After i read this book i went and read "Without Remorse" (which i think is Clancy's best). People may not like how things happen in Rainbow, but Clancy definitely stays within character for John Clark----especially at the end. At first the ending disturbed me, both because of what happened and the fact that i thought that it was a little anticlimactic. But actually now i'm glad that it turned out that way...I mean, this isn't a frickin' James Bond movie. I think people might have missed the irony in the book. During the course of the book, Dr. Bellows (or whatever his name is) gives advice to the Rainbow members regarding terrorist psychology. He repeatedly says that certain people/groups have their own morals or consider themselves above morals/ethics that the rest of the world adheres to(playing by a different set of rules, or something to that effect anyways)---especially the groups that Rainbow confronts. The irony is, He's also really describing John Clark---i mean just look at the ending. That is WHY the book is titled "RAINBOW SIX". Call it unrealistic or over the top if you like, but in my opinion, this is a great book---second to WR.

Summary: Rainbows End, Not!
Review: I think Mr Clancy has given in to pressure to produce or he had a ghost writer do this book from an outline. All my favorite characters were present but the book lacked his normal attention to detail and the story seemed to be aimless and not sure where it was trying to go. the bad guys were presented as a bunch of misguided militant vegetarians, (Vegans) and environmentalists who couldnt see the forest for the trees, the thought of killing every man woman and child on earth to advance the causes of enviromentalism and animal rights was just a little to much to swallow. I wish Mr Clancy would back up and re-group and write a story about Mr Clark during his hey day at the CIA. If you have a 10 hour flight and this book is all you have to read, then go for it. It will be better than staring at the walls!

Summary: WHAT AN AMAZING BOOK
Review: Tom Clancy is the best. I've never read a better action book in my life. I play the game Rainbow Six: Rogue Spear and the game really helps me imagine myself in the book. I reccomend this book to anyone that enjoys terrorist and mystery books. I expect Clancy to make a movie out of this book because it is so good. I've read it about 4 times and I haven't gotten sick of it yet. I have bought this book for many people and they loved it just as much as I do. BUY THIS BOOK! YOU WILL BE DISSAPOINTED IF YOU DON'T!

Summary: If you don't like it, I pity you!
Review: This is my first Tom Clancy novel, though after readingit I am determined to read all the others as well. It is a brilliant book all about spying, terrorism and killing - the contents of a good book! The plot is a secret multi-national counter-terrorism group is formed to get trained to specialise specially with dealing with terrorists. They are picked from the CIA, SAS and other such organisations. Formed in time for a wave of attacks, an unusual amount. Is it just coincidence, or is someone causing it? Then unfolds the larger plot. Towards the end it all gets very close and anything could happen, you just have to find out what'll happen and can't put the book down till you do. It is a really great book, though not for light readers, being about 1000 pages long!

Summary: Rainbow 6 (Was this all Clancy?)
Review: I definately enjoyed reading Rainbow Six but missed my favorite Clancy character, Jack Ryan. There was some references to the "president" but why the omission? The storyline was convoluted enough but the thread that went from the terrorise to the save the earth group was kind of a far stretch. Clancy does pull the needle through and gives the story enough glue only as he can and that made for a good read.
