Negative Positive
Title: Too long
Review: I have read all of the previous Tom Clancy Jack Ryan novels, and I found this to be the most disappointing. It took him 500 pages to describe to us that the US had an agent in China and that agent was getting laid, and that someone tried to kill the former KGB head. Does Clancy get paid by the word??? By the time I got to the actual battle portion of the novel (about page 850) I just wanted this damn novel to end. And the ending was rushed and much too quick. Clearly all of those early pages of writing wore Mr. Clancy out.
Is the review positive or negative?
