Title: Please...Stop!
Review: Tom Clancy fosters a reputation as a conservative intellectual. I've enjoyed his Jack Ryan books (and Red Storm Rising) because, despite the shallow characterizations, he usually was able to provide some thoughtful counterpoint to my usually liberal view. But this book is just awful. The characters are shallow and sophomoric. The dialogue is painful. And the worst transgression is the moral ambiguity. I have no real problem with hunting down and killing terrorists - this is a war after all. But the insipid rationalizations used in this book, the flippant frat-boy posing, are just to much to bear. And I have a great deal of trouble with the process by which Clancy turns a decorated Marine officer, an FBI agent, and the son of a President into paid assassins virtually overnight. Not to mention the somewhat incredible premise of a twin brother hit team, assisted by a first son. This is corporate "thriller-writing" at it's worst. Please stop.
