Negative Positive
Title: Miserable & disappointing
Review: This reads like a wooden Ops Center book, where we at least expect ghost writers.The characters have no individuality; the dialog looks like it was generated by a "Mad Lib" process (how many military types from different countries use "Fair enough" as a standard rejoinder?).The plot is beyond silly: not only do we have 3 basically similar setups to bulk up the book, but we also get the obligatory and pointless attack on Clark's family. The center in Brazil for the bad guys is only created in order to make the closing plot joke possible, and has no other reason to exist.Altogether, this was very disappointing. I've already stopped buying the Ops Center books. If Clancy can't be bothered to do a decent job, he shouldn't keep churning them out - he ought to have enough money by now.
Is the review positive or negative?
