Negative Positive
Title: The Worst Clancy Ever
Review: It cannot be coincidence that this is an election year! Clancy uses this book more as a right-wing political statement than as as an entertaining story. Yes, one can predict and expect the usual military-macho stuff, but one cannot tolerate the endless ideological musings that ruin the flow of the whole story. This book is basically a rant that is anti abortion, pro religion, anti gun control, anti liberal (referring to politicians who levy taxes as wanting to 'suck the blood' out of the country's citizens), anti Clinton, and so on. Mr. Clancy, you need to stick to what you do best. Hint: it's not politics.Oh, and by the way, the language in this book is unnecessarily foul. Tom Clancy seems to be caught in the same trap as Stephen King, thinking that coarse, sexually-explicit language is a way to build up the characters in his story. He seems to use this to try to make his characters appear to be 'regular guys'...and fails miserably.
Is the review positive or negative?
