Summary: excelent; clancy at his best
Review: Tom Clancy's gripping and uncannily realistic thriller. Communist Russia, facing a crippling fuel shortage, uses political cunning to force NATO into war so as to be able to 'liberate' middle- east oil facilities. Excelent characters on both sides. This book not quite as good as 'Red October' but deserves all five of its stars

Rating:
Summary: TOO DETAILED
Review: this is clancy's most involved and boring book.do not buy it. instead try hunt for red october.

Summary: My First Real Novel Read and probably the best!
Review: I am ten years old. Red Storm Rising was reccomended to me by my mom and dad when I told them I was sick of books with treehouses etc... My dad is a Tom clancy reader and so is my mom and RED STORM RISING was their favorite novel by Tom Clancy. I got my hands on the hardcover addition in two days and read one-hundred pages in three days and I couldn't stop reading. It is deafinatly worth reading if you like weapons, soldiers, and planes. It contains every type of lethal weapon in the world. The description is great. READ IT!!!!!!!

Summary: What a rush!
Review: This is the first Clancy book I've read and even though I'm no military expert I found it perfectly readable and enjoyable. I just hope that Clancy's other books can produce like this one. A great read that is a real page-turner.

Summary: incredible
Review: Red Storm Rising is definately one of my favorite books. I have read it three times, and I still find myself unable to put it down. The world is faced with a situation, that the Soviets were in fact fully capable of winning. The book gives an excellent view of modern warfare through the eyes of the two greatest superpowers the world has known. I would recommend this book for anyone. Thank you Tom Clancy!

Summary: Boooooooring...
Review: Well, first of all, I have no respect for anyone who attends fundraising dinners for Oliver North, but I gave this book a try since "The Hunt For Red October" was pretty entertaining. I've tried three times get through this book, but to no avail. The plot is quite interesting, and there are some good moments, but the whole thing is bogged down by endless, redundant battle scenes that do absolutely nothing to move the story along. This book would have been great if a couple hundred pages (no exaggeration) were edited out. Tom Clancy could use some pointers from Frederick Forsyth, Jeffrey Archer and Joseph Finder. They do this stuff much better.

Rating:
Summary: read it five times stunningly detailed
Review: Having just read this book again it just shows what Clancy can do when faced with such a potentially complex subject. The book fascinates from start to finish and leaves the reader breathlesly wondering if this could ever really have happened. The level of detail and planning are used to great effect. An absolutely gripping tale throughout of the former Soviet Unions attempt to alleviate its oil crisis by attacking the West before invading the Arab oil Fields.....
