EndWar Delivers

David Michaels creates a gripping narrative in EndWar dragging the reader along for a tumultuous ride. Each page drips with action that you can scarcely put it down. The diverse points of view give the reader a glimpse into the scope of the massive conflict Michaels' manipulates. Each character shows little hints of emotion. The multitude of narratives works in the novels favor truly allowing Michaels to create the tensions a global conflict would elicit from the armed forces. Military technology plays a critical role in the war of the future, and moments where Michaels has the opportunity to explore the weapons are a true delight for any reader. The writing around these future weapons gives them a sense of reality. EndWar presents the future of war with pages of intense action and characters full of emotion and resolve. For any fan of Clancy or futuristic warmongering, EndWar is an absolute must and a true delight.

EndWar is an exciting read!!!!

This was my first David Michaels (Clancy) novel and it worked for me. It was a fast paced story that involved many characters, some that were not well developed (but some died quick and did not need a lot of development). In fact, it was so interesting that I found myself skimming over the titles and names being more interested in the core characters. Reading the book as a story rather than looking for a lot of character development presented me with my "first Clancy" and a taste for more!!! Just the first line on the novel's back panel had me heading to the front of Borders, "In a devastating nuclear exchange, Saudi Arabia and Iran have destroyed each other"; I had to see what happened next! I was pleased to find that the author presented females with great respect; the most core character is female and I was pulling for her the entire read. I'm not sure the Canadian leadership would be stand-offish to engage the enemy, that alone seems to be a point that would rile the masses. Not having read any other Clancy novels, I've got nothing to compare EndWar with, I enjoyed the book and will watch for subsequent reads that might lend more information to "What is Operation 2659? Who is Snegurochka?"; and to whether the operation has even started. All-in-all, a nice read that I'm still thinking about. IT COULD HAPPEN!!!

Likewise, worth EVERY SINGLE penny !

Great novel. There is NO boring part in this novel. Every single page is filled with excitements and great details of the battlefield. Also, the story line and the plot of the novel is tremendously brilliant. Just love it.

This is in my top 5 Tom Clancy Books yet.

I was waiting for this book to come out ever since i seen it on the inside of one of Splinter Cell Books. I also loved that it was written by David Michaels, His splinter cell books were amazing to me. I loved this book. It was great to read all the different things going on during this war. The only thing that wasn't my favorite thing in the book was the ending. It left off and you know theres gotta be a sequel... Now I can't wait for the sequel to come out. And I can't wait for that second book. I deffinitly would reccomend this book to Tom Clancy fans.

Great Book

Tom Clancy and David Michaels have outdone themseleves this time. This book is a great book. 1st off the pacing is great for a book like this. The characters get there time to develop a bit but the main theme of this book is action and that is where the book focuses on. 2nd the technology you see in this book is strait out of the army's vaults of today and tomorrow. Some of the weapons and technology in this book is being used or in testing phases with the U.S military now. 3rd off the overall story of the book is believeable in such a way that after reading certain parts makes you wonder when this will happen not if. 4th off you have invasions, marines, dogfights, terrorist, nukes, cool weapons, space battles, what more could one ask for I really hope they continue this book and make the other ones in the series just as fast paces and exciting as this one. If you are Clancy fan buy this book, if you are looking for a good read buy this book, if you are a first time book reader buy this book, heck if you are from mars buy this book it is worth the $10.00.
