Review title: Like a bad Tom Clancy Novel
Product review: This book was a huge disappoinment. If you know the difference between an algorithm and a key or symmetric and asymmetric encryption then do not buy this book. The author needs to find someone with some knowledge of encryption to be a co-writer or a proof reader. The book is not believable in so many areas it makes the story very difficult to get excited about. I kept thinking that the author was trying to write a Tom Clancy style book (the NSA doesn't send language professors to do field work any more than the CIA would send Jack Ryan into the field) but just did not do his homework to make it at all believable. Tom Clancy makes it believable becuase he does his homework so well; this author does not. Don't buy this book.
