Title: Same old Clancy only getting stale and sloppy
Review: What was once fresh and interesting about Clancy (red October/sum of all fears) has become stale and hackneyed. There were so many typos and repetitive passages, I am left with the sense that he bypassed the editing stage due to a tight deadline. The technological insights I enjoyed in the past were exaggerated in this tome with out the benefit of a trully riviting storyline to balance it. Lastly, his descriptive treatment of women leads me to conclude that he's been frustrated in his attempts at relationships with them. This book has convinced a longtime Clancy fan (I've read'em all) to seek out greener pastures.
