I think that Tom Clancy's bestseller Rainbow Six is brill! because it's so out of this world but then again right down to earth with facts and descriptions. the comparison to earth now is so real you'd think it really happened and as well as that it's got humour loads of humour but then not to much to get bored over. p.s i'am 12 and it took me 2 weeks to read rainbow six. if ya want talk/debate about this book e-mail me

The book can be boring at times but overall its a pretty good book. Not one of Clancy's best, but pretty good.

I found Rainbow Six to be Tom Clancy's least rewarding work.
1) He introduces some interesting characters, but chooses not to develop them. For example, Mrs. John Clark and Mrs. Domingo Chavez could have provided us with a fascinating perspective on their hus- bands, but they fade into the book's background scenery instead.
2) The massive volume of profanity stands out in a big way. Granted, some salty language is neces- sary; these are military men after all. However, the continued crudity made me like Clark and Chavez less at the book's end than I did at its beginning. I expect a writer as accomplished as Tom Clancy to portray his character with greater skill and without resorting to a constant barrage of ob- scenity.
3) Neither was the plot developed with the thoughtfulness we usually associate with Clancy. The early string of hostage rescues became predictable. The eventual climax would have been more plausible with just a few more paragraphs of descriptive detail.
All in all though, I do plan look forward to the next volume in this Jack Ryan series. Perhaps Tom Clancy will enjoy more time before his manuscript deadline and improved editorial support.

Can become boring but when the action happens it happens.
