Power Plays

Power Plays is one of Tom Clancys best, gicing an incite to the future. This action packed book is great for those who like fast paced books. I recommend this book to everyone!

GREAT!

This book was one of if not the best clacny book that i have read. The book had a great plot and kept you intrested all throughout the story! It starts out with a great begining when the president of Russia dies then there is a huge terrorist attack in New York on New Years Eve. This book could of really happened during the dawn of the new milennium! Read it!

If you like plitics this is the book for you

Takes Clear and present danger, Ruthless.com, and Exective orders and surpasses them all. One book you should not put down. Brings the action af the inside world to the outside world. Excellent book. Go get it now, while it is still on the book shelfs.

Stunning, detailed, filled with intrigue

This was the first Tom Clancy novel that I have read and was something that I would have expected from him, given what I've heard about him. What makes this novel so intriguing is that it is a real and forseeable possibility. Clancy has really "hit the nail on the head" so to speak. The reader is constantly wondering who it is that financed the terrorist attack in New York City. For those of you who have seen/read Patriot Games, Politika has a similarly tenseful and action filled ending. The novel does leave a few questions unanswered, but they could potentially be answered in later versions of "power plays". To Mr. Clancy, good job!

My first Clancy book

This was my first Tom Clancy book and let me tell you, it drew me in like a sixteen inch trout. Now, i'm just filling my shelves with Clancy novels even though i'm just starting Ruthless.com. Clancy brought me into the action right off the bat and kept my interest throughout the entire book. I couldn't put it down. Tom Clancy, I salute you on a job well done.
