Publisher Description
Over the course of nine novels, Tom Clancy's genius for big, compelling plots and his natural narrative gift have mesmerized hundreds of millions of readers and established him as one of the preeminent storytellers of our time. Rainbow Six, however, goes beyond anything he has done before. At its heart is John Clark, the ex-Navy SEAL of Without Remorse, a master of secret operational missions, and newly named the head of an international task force dedicated to combating terrorism. Clark is looking forward to sinking his teeth into a new mission, but the opportunities start coming faster than anyone could have expected; an incident at a Swiss bank, the kidnapping of an international trader in Germany, a terrible raid on an amusement park in Spain. Each episode seems separate, yet the timing disturbs Clark. Is there a connection? He tries to figure out where all this activity is heading, but there is no way to predict the real threat: a group of terrorists like none the world has ever encountered, a group so extreme that their success could literally mean the end of life on this earth as we know it.

"I have read all of Tom Clancy's fiction so far and have been rarely dissappointed. I thoroughly enjoyed this entry as well, although it seems to be written at a level one notch below his usual standards. There is lots of action and lots of insights into the world of anti-terrorism but I felt one element was missing. I never found myself fearful of danger. All of the Rainbow organization are supermen with little chance of being bested. You knew they were going to win out every time; the interest was in how they would accomplish each mission. The only time I was concerned for the safety of the characters was when a different group of guys was brought into the main action. I expected some to die there, and they did. It was like watching one of the original Star Trek TV shows where the one guy you've never seen before that beams down to to the planet was the guy you knew was going to get eaten by the slime monster. I expect a lot from Clancy so I am being very critical here. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this novel. It was an easy read, despite the number of pages, and the whole thing flowed together nicely. Read it for the action, read it for the familiar characters, read it for the "Good guys win" feeling, but just read it."

" Rainbow Six is about combating terrorism, and in this day and age with all the terrorist making trouble in the world, this is an excellent book that tells the story of just how terrorist should be taken on. I highly recommend this book for that reason, but also it is a continuation of the Jack Ryan series which if you like action and intrigue, then this book is just what you would want. "

" I read this stcuk in the Poconos. Despite the over the top writing, it was a pretty good distraction. "
— Mayya, 2/4/2014 -
" This book takes off from the moment you pick it up. There was only one time that I felt like I had to put it down because it was slowing down. Not bad for a 700 page book. I highly recommend it! "
— Stephanie, 1/27/2014 -
" Never been a huge Tom C. fan but this book was too good to put down. Regardless of your preconceptions of Mr.Clancy's work, I implore you, read this one. You won't regret it and it just might wake you up. "

— Michael, 12/16/2013 -

" Mr. Clancy needs a new editor. "
— Andrew, 6/4/2012 -
" Action packed. Reads like a movie. Mulitnational anti-terrorism force led by John Clark. Clancy books are a big committment for me because I am not a fast reader and they get up in the 600 - 700 page realm. Good story. "
— Jrossi, 1/11/2012 -
" This is what Clancy does best: a team of badass special force operatives taking on a world-threatening terrorist plot. Not his finest book, but plenty entertaining. 3 stars, recommended. "
— Evan, 8/28/2011 -
" For me, it's a toss-up between this and "Without Remorse" for Tom Clancy's best. "

" There isn't a problem with the content of this story, but I struggled with its pace. It seemed that there were about 100 pages in between each exciting events with a bunch of fluff in between each. I may just have become too used to the Young Adult fiction I have been reading lately. "
— Tavish, 3/10/2011 -
" It was pretty good, seemed to drag out a bit. Neat plot line, good read if you have a large chunk of time and don't mind things developing slowly. "
— John, 10/31/2010 -
" in a way i feel that i learned technique from this book because its about highly skilled soldiers who know what there doing, they are highly trained warriors "
— Cortez, 10/1/2010 -
" A terrorism thriller that struck me as too realistic at times. Hope the bad guys aren't reading this as a 'how to' manual. "
— Paul, 4/1/2010 -
" Camerin and my own favorite "
— Nick, 2/6/2010 -
" One of my all-time favorite books! "
