Summary: it is simply a bad book
Comment: Since I read 'Clear and present danger' I have been a fan of Tom Clancy's books. Those books are usually well written, with enough details and an interesting line. They usually are believable since the author is able to unite reality and the storyline in the book. Well, this book was not another example of the above. The books reflects a situation in Spain that is just incredible. The author probably does not know anything about Spain, their political system and their military units (a list of those can be found easy in internet) The name of the non-American characters look like taken out from a cheap novel. I might remember the author than for example people have 2 last names. Another important error is the role of Interpol. Finally I would recommend the author that next time he decide to name organizations , streets and other 'details' he ask someone that: 1- Know Spanish (so he do not make those gross grammar mistakes) 2- Know Spain (so he do not make errors about politics, names and life). My conclusion about this book is that it look more like FANTASY than fictions. The storyline is not credible and it has too many mistakes that may offend an Spaniard (Spaniard = citizen from Spain) If I may say something more I recommend not to bother buying books from the OP-center and Net-force line since the quality of those is low and keep reading the other books written by Tom Clancy (that are more credible, better written and in general good)

Summary: Greeat
Comment: Op-Center books just keep getting better and better. Although like most Op-Center reads this starts off somewhat slow at the beginning but then when you get about halfway through it is wayn too hard to put this book down. This book has a excellent story line also. I hope Op-Center never stops.
Rating: 4
Summary: One of the subtler Op-Centers
Comment: Op-Center deploys to a fragmenting modern Spain and attempts to defuse a crisis by eleiminating a would-be dictator. Excellent characters and sparkling dialog. Most impressive to me is the writing -- fast-faced, yes, but with fine subtlety and deep human understanding. A good thriller, but a novel of impressive depths.
I found it increasingly intriguing as I went along.
