Summary: an ok book, but I've read better Clancy.
Comment: This book is what I feel is a major departure for Clancy. It reads quite a bit different than most of his other works. In my opinion it's more like the Op Force books, than say Red October or Patriot Games. The book is very detailed in regards to Computer stuff and tech talk so a newcommer to this stuff might be a little confused. I realize that the book is fairly old but I doubt the future will look as clancy has portrayed it. I don't think VR is going to be that integrated or advanced in 10 years time. Especially on a global scale as he portrayed it.
The characters are ok, but with so many of them its hard to really get to know them. By the end of the book I had begun to really associate with them, but it took too long for me to really care about them. BTW I was realluy rooting for the bad guys in this one, they're the best characters by far I think.
So in my opinion grab this book if you're a computer and clancy fan. Or if you can get a copy for cheap. It's not a book that everyone will enjoy.

Summary: It's Not Typical Clancy Fiction...
Comment: Yes, I agree with other reviewers who say that Net Force is not classic Tom Clancy fiction. I feel that to read and enjoy Net Force, you need to put the fact that Clancy is the author out of your mind. try to enjoy the book as the hi-tec action story it is and you may find that you enjoy it. But if your expecting a typical Clancy book, you will be in for a dissapointment. The toughest thing about enjoying Net Force however, is getting into the book. The technology terms can get confusing. If your not a fan of computers or sci-fi you may have a difficult time getting to like the novel. Some paragraphs are very complicated to the point where you will actuallly have to re-read a paragraph or two just to get the full meaning. Once you get into the well written story you will have a tough time putting it down. The characters are very well crafted and interesting. Plus there are a number of sub plots which intersect with the main plot which I found to be interesting and enjoyable, I liked Net Force, but many people didn't. The key is to sit back and enjoy it for what it, a great futuristic action book and not a typical Tom Clancy book
Rating: 2
Summary: Almost a book
Comment: This story is out of reality at any time, it has an almost love story, almost FBI thriller, almost futuristic, almost childish, and I can keep going about almost everything, apart of that, you can skip almost half of the book and you will understand it, so to resume this review, this book is a complete (not almost, complete) waste.
