Title: Boring, predictable, turgid. Wait a week for bargain book
Review: Tom Clancy is not known for his ability to write prose but at least he usually writes an engaging techno thriller.(Hunt for Red October, Red Storm Rising). This time his characters aren't substantial enough to qualify as cardboard. The plot is not so original or well written to even be a cliche and is about as exciting as a glass of cold spit. Half-way through the book you may start hoping the terrorists win. A world-wide plague couldn't possibly be more miserable than trying to finish this book If you are a die-hard Clancy Fan and MUST have anything he has written, at least wait a week for it to show up on the bargain table. Better, wait for the paper-back and buy it used.
