Rating: Summary: waste of time Review: If Clancy even had a part in this book I'd be surprised... incredibly unbelievable and hokey
Rating: Summary: Bad Stuff Review: I wish Mr. Clancy had included more technical detail into his book. I feel that the book lacks more entertaining events e.g. Bill Gates drinking the tainted water. From this, Bill and his evil empire develop a program that buggers all computers in the Middle East. Next, Bill ( or if I were Mr. Clancy...) King Bill takes over the whole world and crushes the green empire of Linux. Once done, Bill kicks back in his favorite chair, kicks off his shoes, opens a cold Rolling Rock and proclaims "I'm the K-I-N-G of the world..." This book is so bad this storyline, in comparison, is actually good...
Rating: Summary: Beginning of Great Series Review: Begin with the second of the series, then maybe even go the third. Afterwards, reading the first of the series is better appreciated. This first book in his series was just a warm up for the rest which should not be missed.
Rating: Summary: Brain-dead fodder / Definitely not worth of Tom Clancy Review: The whole OP series is for brain-deads. I am very dissapointed by the OP series and I am angry with myself that I bought such a trash. The whole plot is superficial, the characters unreal and superficial. Everything is too simplistic.Read the Jack Rian series. Very highly recommendable. But please do yourseld a favour and skip the complete OP series.
Rating: Summary: I love Clancy but this is 100% GARBAGE Review: I bought the book thinking that Tom Clancy wrote it. I like his books. I do not know if he ever even took a glance at this OP trash that bears his name on the cover. The whole OP series is trash... do not read it... very dissapointing. Ramon Bartschat
Rating: Summary: A suspenseful, breath-taking book that I strongly recommend Review: Op-Center is one of the best books I have ever read. It packs a lot of action. Op-Center is about a South Korean group of people trying to assasinate North Koreans and start a war. The South Koreans tap into the government crisis control place called Op-Center. They transmit fake sattelite images to make Op-Center think that nothing suspicious is going on. When Op-Center sends a team to the Koreas, the killing gets meaner and meaner. As the Koreas come closer to war, Op-Center makes a last struggle to stop battle. What will happen? Read this book and find out!
Rating: Summary: Oh, come on!!! Review: During this book, I found my self saying "Oh, Come On!!" over and over. That pretty much sums up the whole book. From a video game supposedly causing the destruction of the free world, to a young lady bothering to go to a Neo-Nazi camp simply to yell "Screw You!" to a man in a wheel chair beating the heck out of a group of Nazi musclemen with only a broomstick handle and a knife. I don't know why I even bothered to finish this nonsense.
Rating: Summary: Not your typical Clancy...but, not bad either. Review: Although at times far-fetched, this book gives the reader get a snap-shot review of things to come in the Middle East. I am a fervant Clancy reader that loves his style but this is not his typical work. It seems he is relying on marginal profit by attaching his name to a series of novels not under his supervision. But, for those who are avid Clancy enthusiasts please give him the benefit of the doubt and enjoy the often times fantastic, idealistic, and the rock'em-sock'em prose of this book.
Rating: Summary: Op-center does it again. Review: This was the third op-center bbok I read and they all seem the same. Someone is trying to overthrow a government or stage some type of a coup and it`s op-center`s job to stop them. I think any of the op-center books would be a dissapointment to someone who is expecting the quiality of the Jack Ryan series.
Rating: Summary: An excellent introduction to a fine series Review: Although many dislike the introductory novel of the series, OpCentre combines all characters and plot-twists into a fine story. Clancy masters the introductions of more than five main characters in the system like the master we have come to know him as. I thought this to be a better into to a series than Hunt was for the Jack Ryan series, and Hunt was beautiful.
