Summary: A Great Op Center --Smart & Fun
Review: I've read all of the Op-Center Books, and think this is the best one for a lot of reasons. It's even more suspensful than the others, and requires the Op Center team to defeat a terrorist through strategy rather than with force. What's more, the story is very creative. The conspirators are cold and super-ruthless. In the end, the message of the book its positive -- the efforts of a few dedicated people (even in this computer age) end the crisis.

Summary: the American Achilles' tendon
Review: I've read reviews of a number of other reviewers, who commented Divide and Conquer was not as good as the previous Op-Center novels. I don't agree with them. I actually think Divide and Conquer is the best of the series. By plotting a chain of events, which unfold in a very short manner of time, the team behind Divide and Conquer (including Tom Clancy, Steve Pieczenik and Jeff Rovin) creates a very tense-full situation. I think the average reader of Divide and Conquer will have a lot of fun reading this book.What also struck me as remarkable, was the fact that for the first time in a very long series of Op Center novels, the United States of America seemed vulnerable. Usually the Clancy novels don't mention the weaknesses of this Worldpower. But by creating an "internal" conspiracy - a conspiracy by Americans - against the President of the USA, and by revealing the American "Achilles' tendons" to the public, the team of Op Center writers really surprised me. I'd surely recommend this book to Clancy fans and also to others, since you will spend a great time reading it (regarding the great plotting and excitement that rushes through this novel, that won't be a very long time). The fact that Clancy has finally revealed America's weaknesses, makes this novel even more inspiring!

Summary: The best OP Center book since mirror image.
Review: Mister Clancy does it agian. This story has it all the return of General Orlov, the begining of the end of Paul and Sharon's relationship, and an original plot. This plot was so much better thought out and more belivable than the last two books plots. The way mister Clancy keeps up on international events and foriegn policy is remarkable. The abscence of the Striker team was good as well because it let Paul Hood be more of a hero.

Summary: Solid contribution to the Op Center Series
Review: Overall, the Op Center books remain the strongest of the four on-going "Clancy" serials. While not as strong as Games of State or Acts of War, Divide and Conquer makes a solid contribution and continues to build the depth of the series. One of the things that I enjoy most is the continued development of the on-going characters. This book focuses almost exclusively on Hood and does a good job of continuing the development of his character. In general, I find the characters believable and that they act rationally; I can not always says this about the Net Force characters. I did miss several other continuing characters, including Rodgers, McCaskey and the Striker team. These characters essentially did not appear in Divide and Conquer. One of my dislikes about this book was just this omission; it ignored almost all of the normal supporting characters. Just as disconcerting, there are hints that the next book will continue this trend. Additionally, I have a general sense of unease that the events of the last few books are supposedly so close together on the timeline. The pace of the events of these books seems unbelievable. Finally, it will be interesting to see if the authors ever have the nerve for the main characters to fail, rather than succeed, when they are acting on their instincts...

Summary: I'd give it more stars if I could
Review: The authors did an excellent job on this story. The plot was well developed, as were the characters. The story moves at a comfortable pace and was quite interesting. This was the first audio book that I've ever listened too, (I was afraid that it would be boring to hear someone else read the story), but it will not be the last I listen to. Robert Foxworthy is a great narrator, doing an excellent with accents and voice inflections. Even though the story moves along very swiftly, you can easily keep up. If you listen to audio book - or even if you don't - I strongly encourage you to get this one, sit back and enjoy.

Summary: The Book Reviewed By Me
Review: The book i'm reviewing was viewing was okay interesting, but in all and all it was a okay book. There alot of good plots in the story. There was also alot of action in it. I suggest this book to anyone that likes War books. Thats what I thought of Op-Center Divide and Conquer.

Summary: Clancy at his best
Review: The latest issue of the OpCenter series is the best yet. In addition to his usual international domination plots, he incorporates the resignation of Paul Hood into the plot very well. Leaving the ending open for another volume leaves the reader wanting more.

Summary: Clancy? I don't think so.
Review: This book to me is a classic case of an author mis-using his name on a product. The only thing that is "Tom Clancy" about this book is his name on the cover. He did NOT write this piece of drivel. In some instances, the dialog is quite amateurish and not up to the standards I have come to expect from a "Tom Clancy" book. Don't get me wrong, I am a great fan of Clancy..... when he writes the book. This book is not Clancy.
