Title: Different Book, Same Plot
Review: OK, I have read all of Clancy's fiction, and have enjoyed them, but he is in danger of becoming the Neil Simon of thriller novels. Like Simon, who has written many plays and movies with essentially the same plot, Clancy reuses an old plot, in this case Red Storm Rising, only changing the location and character names. He did the same thing in Rainbow Six, which was essentially a cross between Executive Orders and Patriot Games. I won't even get into the constant moralizing that he beats us over the head with during the course of the novel. We get the point Tom, you don't need to belabor itAlso, no novel needs to be over 1000 pages long. Someone needs to remind Clancy that a wise man once said "Brevity is the soul of Wit."
