Negative Positive
Title: Ugh. You have to be kidding me.
Review: Clancy has officially hit rock bottom. I couldn't believe how ridiculously one-sided this book was. The good guys are perfect, and the bad guys have the emotional intelligence of a six-year-old. I'm hoping that the American military doesn't have the same perception of our enemies as Clancy does.What really bothers me is that even some of the most successful special forces operations in history--especially those which took place in such public settings as what is described in Rainbow Six--had a few things go wrong; hostages were killed and soldiers were injured. Some even completely fell apart. Clancy apparently either didn't do his homework on this or simply chose to disregard it.I was really, REALLY disappointed in this book. I am (or maybe was) a huge Clancy fan, and while the technical details were still there to satisfy a hard-core military techno-geek, the story was somewhat absurd, and the dialogue is bad, even for Clancy.
Is the review positive or negative?
