Negative Positive
Title: Does familiarity breed contempt?
Review: As soon as I saw "Rainbow Six" on the bookshelf, I bought it. I never wait for the soft-cover to come out, however, this time I should have. Editorial errors such as a character changing names from "Tim" to "Tom" in a page shows that speed was the driving factor not quality in this latest Tom Clancy book. Unfortunately, this is not the first time this has happened in a Clancy novel. The plot was generally plausible, but the lack of substance to the characters was most dissapointing. All the "good" guys were alike, almost like clones of each other. The book reads like it followed a standard formuala for its construction and so consequently it is highly predictable. The one refreshing departure from past books was that the "bad" guys were from the US. I would not recommend you rush out and buy this one, but if you have some time to pass and want something not too challenging, then buy it.
