Title: Terribly predictable and sadly one dimensional
Review: I have been a Clancy fan from the first time I picked up Red October. While his characters have always been two dimensional, the plots and action sequences have kept you glued to the pages and the story lines were never been predictable....until now. R6 bears none of the hallmarks we have come to expect from Mr Clancy. Instead it feely borrows from the plot lines of previous novels while the action sequences stumble along like a drunken sailor on a week long binge. This novel might have done better if his editor had been awake when it crossed his or her desk. We might have been spared the sophomoric moral pontifications and interminable political rant.
Is the review positive or negative?
