Negative Positive
Title: Single dimensioned, naiive, typographically flawed.
Review: I've read nearly every Clancy novel. Over the years I've detected a gradual diminishment in the quality of plot, character depth, subplot integration, and richness in wording when comparing his first series of works to this. It's quite possible to skip entire sections in the book-and I did through sheer boredom-yet stay connected with the main plot. I'm disappointed with how unidimensional the novel is with its sophomoric approach to both "global/environmental" terrorism and special operations units and tactics. A 300 page novel crammed into 700 pages. Too bad, Tom, you could have done much better....you did before.
