Rainbow Six

Rating:
Summary: Very exciting and descriptive.
Review: This book is very real and actually lets you see what a swat team does and the thoughts of the terrorists. The back-lying plot is so cool.

Rating:
Summary: Excellent Book
Review: This is a great book. maybe a little detailed but not to bad. Three different terrorist attacks grab you from the begining. you get through one and go right into another, i like it. And then your hit by the "Big One", wow. Nice job Clancy

Rating:
Summary: As a retired special forces soldier
Review: I found this book distasteful. We serve because we believed in our country and its laws-- the men I worked with were professionals and would not take the law in their own hand. Clancy is a former insurance salesman who makes a buck off of these men. You want good special ops books-- try Andy McNabb's SAS books or Bob Mayer's Special Forces books-- they were there and know the reality.

Rating:
Summary: A very detailed book.
Review: Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six goes into the detail of all the terrorist plans. He doesn't leave out any minor things that could affect a mission, yet he pulls it off to make the good guys win again. I highly recommend this book.

Rating:
Summary: Good plot but too obvious from the start and repetitive
Review: This is probably one of Clancy's worst novels. The plot is good but it is completely given away far too early. Add the relentlessly repetitive nature of what goes through each characters mind and I was tempted now and then to pass a few pages and find a place where the story would resume. The main characters long-winded thoughts about surviving in the "new world order" left me wondering if Clancy himself is going through a similar crisis. It seems to me that this fine novelist is going for the easy money this time.

Summary: Very dissapointing, not up to Clancy Standards
Review: Ahh, too predictable, too many "coincidences", not enough realism. What are the chances that the worlds best counterterrorism team is going to be on the same 1 in a billion airplane that gets highjacked? The "professionals" make stupid, ametuer mistakes constantly! Not up to pre-clancy greatness. The plot was VERY anticlimactic. The end was very drawn out, instead of the action packed, last chapter punch, with a one page post-logue like most of clancy's other works. I love clany's other books, and Red Storm Rising is my all time favorite book, ever. Go buy Red Storm Rising!!! p.s.- The PC Game "Rainbow Six", and its sequal game, "Rouge Spear", are the best games ever made, these i HIGHLY recommend. You will not regret it!!!!!!!!!

Summary: Great Book!
Review: I'm a future writer and is a big fan of the game "Tom Clancy's Rainbow 6" and just finish reading this book. I say this is a good book. All you readers who say "oh too long" or "too much cussing and too much details." Well I say you are expecting too much from this guy. So what if details are too much, it just give you an idea of the scene and cussing is something the charecter do when they are pissed! If you are gonna give a bad review then don't leave it, cause I believe that people should read more often and Clancy is doing a great job of making people read, if ya give every book you think suck a bad review, kids will take that seriously and not read a really good book like this one. Even though this is an Adult book, but some kid want to read about action with guns and terrorist. Read this book for yourself and you will like it.

Summary: Non-stop Action
Review: I could not put this book down. My teachers yelled at me constantly for reading it in class. The action starts immediately in the prologue and does not stop until the unbelievably tense finale. It was very interesting because the bad guys had good intentions and Clancy made that clear. And not all the bad guys were really bad... (for you readers who have't read it yet). A must read for all Clancy fans and for those who aren't, you will be by the end.

Rating:
Summary: Awsome book.
Review: This is an action-packed thrill ride. The game was awsome, so I decided to try the book out. 900 pages! After I read the prolouge, I was addicted. This is a MUST READ!

Summary: Enthralling Read: A Good Book for Clancy Fans.
Review: The book begins with an airplane highjacking and ends with a stunning climax. A fascinating look into the anti-terrorist world, it is a must read for fans of Clancy and his John Clark thriller Without Remorse. At times, this book makes you want to grab a weapon and go at those looney "tree-huggers" along with the Rainbow team. At times, a little predictable, but an intersting look at the post Cold War situation of terrorism from within the U.S. Not his best work, but still very readable.
