Summary: Clancy's Tradition Carries On
Review: Over the past 15 years, the political and scientific natures of our world have changed. Thus the crisises our nations now face have changed. Clancy does a commendable job describing the hypothetical situations which are most likely frighteningly close to reality. Kudos, sir, we cannot wait for your next book to be released.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Is it as good as the Video Game?
Review: The Video game is really good, I wonder if the book is too. Reading your reviews I noticed the name of John Clark who is the sort of director in the video games but takes no part in the action.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: One of the best.
Review: I have read all of Clancy's books and this is one of the best. Simply, one of the best. Not as much detail as his former books but it is good to see John Clark again.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A MUST READ FOR ANY ACTION FAN!!
Review: This is one of the best books I have read in a long time. Not since The Hunt For Red October have I enjoyed a book so much. This is a must read for anyone who likes action, thrillers, or a very good book.I couldn't put it down,I wanted to see what happened next. The book grabs you from the first page, and you're hooked on it from there on. I picked it up at my local book store and spent 20 minutes just standing there reading it in the middle of the store!!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Barely better than the inflight magazine...
Review: The only reason I bothered finishing Rainbow Six was that I was trapped on an international flight. The story concept is interesting, but horrendously and repetitively told--editors must be in short supply these days. Don't bother with this one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This book is the f-ing best
Review: If you don't like this book you are insane

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Non-stop thrill ride
Review: This is the best book ever! The action starts on page one with a hijacking and ends on page 857 with a ... (i guess you will have to read the book to find out!!!) ENJOY

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Tom Clancy sinks low
Review: It really is a shame. A good author prints a couple of really good books and for whatever reason ends up regurgitating poor books with little plot but guaranteed to generate revenue at a phenomenal rate. This book had very little of substance in it. The plot was weak and predictable and the writing marginal. With this book I will have to add Tom Clancy to the list which includes Steven King and John Grisham of authors that generated a few great books and now can't seem to write anything worth reading.

Truly a shame

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best book ever!
Review: This book has to be the best book I've ever read. People sometimes complain that it was too long, but actually, when I finished, I found myself wishing it was longer. Tom Clancy did an amazingly excellent job of depicting the battle scenes, and the underlying plot regarding "Shiva" is an ingenious idea. Anyone who said this book wasn't good is either a LIAR, or someone who should immediately seek some psychiatric help. Go buy this book. You won't regret it.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: The end of an era...
Review: The end of the cold war has put many people out of work and one of them might just be Tom Clancy. History will record Rainbow Six as the book that caused many Clancy lovers to move on.

Although the concept of an international anti-terrorism force has great potential, Clancy squanders the opportunity by taking on a plot that couldn't be handled even by this bloated 900 page effort. After suffering through page after page of dry character and plot develeopment, I was amazed at the lack of pay-off at the end.

If you are the weekend paintball type, this book will probably still turn your crank. If you're like me and love Tom Clancy novels for their mix of real drama and high tech narrative, you will be sadly dissappointed.
