"This book was completely action packed. Like a Movie or a Video Game, which was both good and bad. It was good, because it had lots of excitement, but it was also slightly bad because nothing was realistic, and all the characters were sort of superficial.
Nonetheless, it's a very fun book to read, and that is all that readers want during the summer- something fun."
"The best of the best form an international Anti-Terror team to resolve issues that individual governments can't or choose not to handle. They're good and so is the plot. This is one of those stories where you have multiple seemingly unrelated threads that climatically spin together at the end, and you say "A-ha!". Extreme things happen but at the same time everything is believable."
"Espionage is always a favorite of mine, more particularly in films than in books as it seems better a visual than what words can offer. Nonetheless I read this a few years ago because I loved the title. I think I may have played the video game, too, but not so much that I remember enjoying. It was just after the film 'The Sum of All Fears' came out and Liev Schreiber played John Clark (a mere supporting role there, whereas here the main player), and quite well. I imagined him older here, as he is supposed to be near retirement, but that made the reading easier. If you have never read a Clancy book, start here because I think it's the only book I could get through without going into a coma after each chapter. Granted, he has his moments of ranting, mostly about technical jargon only a military colonel would understand, not to mention his need to explain every detail in every character's (major or minute) life. Anyhow, the story is enough to keep you going, and don't worry it does end in a way you won't expect. I may never read it again for fear that I will be eighty or so by the time I finish, but it's still worth the read."
"This book is one of the most exciting books I have ever read. It contains the single most well thought out, nefarious evil plans I have ever encountered in any book ever. There is also a fair amount of gratuitous gun and military equipment description. At over 900 days it was also one of the quickest reads also."
