Book Review Tom Clancy's Endwar The Hunted

Hello all
I just got through reading the book Tom Clancy's EndWar The Hunted

First off unlike the the first book this is a book that focuses on Special Forces operations instead of the war itself. Many of the War scenarios from the first book are gone in favor of stealth, covert operations, and espionage. so if that aint you bag then this will not be a book for you. For me it was and it was a very enjoyable book, while the first one is still better this one was a good one altogether.

The good
First off the covert operations all told with amazing detail and forthought
secondly, the locales are expanded and you see more of what has happened to this world.
third More characters add more intrigue to this world and the ending leaves open another book.

The bad
Some of the characters actions are questionable especially since the first book set them up so very well
secondly some of the actions of the major factions in the book make no sense given their past history.
one of the characters does not seem believable but plays a central part of the sotry

These bad points can be overcome throughout most of the book but there are points where they stand out. While a good book it felt it needed some polishing stil la good time killing story.

7 out of 10 stars
