Yes I have been there and this does put me back. But not in a bad way!!! Thank You!! Dean

Very interesting book

added this to my library

Scott Mitchell and his Ghost Recon team have an important mission. The character development is good, the detail is good and the action is great. Reading Tom Clancy could be tough for me since I had to wade through so much background and detail. This book pays homage to Clancy, but is a quicker read. I recommend it highly.

The book is a solid and exciting read bringing back memories of this readers time in Vietnam. The characters were so well developed and "real" that I could put names of those I served with on each. A good read for combat vets. Usually such vets will know exactly why life has a flavor the protected will never know .

Moves at a Special Ops pace - fast and furious. If the “real” Specials are half this good, they must be spectacular.

Genre is not my favorite but this was fast paced with plenty of plot twists. Characters were believable. Story was unique.

ok

Love this series on XBox - I love the book too. Adds to the story line!

Tom Clancy has a lot of franchises under his name. I choose his books for his amazing style. Being interested in most products he endorses, I felt compelled to give this series a read.It's written by David Michaels. He also wrote the Splinter Cell novels. I have read the first Splinter Cell title. I hated it. The writer's style really did not appeal to me. I felt like I was being explained things in a very simplistic and childish way. I reluctantly finished it but swore to never read another Splinter Cell novel.I however gave the Ghost Recon series a chance. I was very anxious of finding out if the approach was different. To my surprise, I was enjoying the narrative to the point of finishing the book in a few days. It's nowhere near the Clancy style, but it feels like a step forward from the awful Splinter Cell.

It’s very good

Although this series is not as complex in storyline as the Jack Ryan series, it is entertaining, with sophisticated humor, and intricate personal relationship interactions.
