Summary: One of the worst
Comment: To be honest, I haven't read the whole book. I am the type of person who once I start reading a book I will read it regardless of how good or bad it is. For some reason, I feel an obligation to either myself or the author. This book was so bad I had to quit. This was my first read from this Net Force series. The author tried to get fancy with technology/futurism by describing the mundane use a computer as a virtual reality exercise. That literary 'technique' turned me off. After discussing how much I disliked the beginning of this book with a friend, I was turned onto Clive Cussler (Flood Tide) and am really enjoying that.

Summary: Generic At Best
Comment: This seventh book in the now stale Net Force series offers nothing new and is better left alone. The Net Force series started off fresh but the books have since grown forced and clichéd. Writers Perry and Segriff seem to still follow the same plot blueprint that most of the books have followed: ruthless bad guy with a diabolical scheme (even though we never learn what it is), a lowlife assassin, a new set of net viruses (a requirement), and Net Force saving the day. At least in this book the writers decide to change the status quo a little in the ending and provide a jumping-off point for bored readers.
There are a wealth of better alternative books: readers looking for military/political thrillers should check out Tom Clancy's REAL books, while readers wanting action/adventure should try Clive Cussler's writings, and readers looking for future/tech should try some of William Gibson's books.

Summary: The first Tom Clancy I read was not a good one!
Comment: My wife picked this up for me - she thought I might enjoy Tom Clancy. In fact I do - but this isn't really Tom Clancy at all and, in fact, I'm embarrassed for him.
The good news: It's an easy and almost fun read.
The bad news: The writing is absolutely dreadful. I mean really really bad.
I will give some other Net Force books a chance some time. The premise is interesting and there are supposed to be some good books in the series out there. This, unfortunately, is not one of them!
