Title: Power Plays is power-less
Review: Although Tom Clancy is highly regarded as a adventure writer, I found "Power Plays" limp and unrewarding. The characters jump from one place to another in such disconnected fashion that I found myself not caring for any of them. To me the story was predictable and--dare I say it--boring. There is none of the depth that early Clancy books possess. I had the feeling, like with Michael Crichton's "Airframe", that this book was written for one reason: to make money via sequals, cd ROM's, and a movie. This does not make for good writing!
