Publisher's summary

In the newly unified Germany, old horrors are reborn. It is the beginning of Chaos Days, a time when neo-Nazi groups gather to spread violence and resurrect dead dreams. But this year Germany isn't the only target. Plans are afoot to destabilize Europe and cause turmoil throughout the United States. Paul Hood and his team, already in Germany to buy technology for the new Regional Op-Center, become entangled in the crisis. They uncover a shocking force behind the chaos - a group that uses cutting-edge technology to promote hate and to influence world events. A powerful profile of America's defense, intelligence, and crisis management technology, Tom Clancy's Op-Center is the creation of Tom Clancy and Steve Pieczenik.

Fast Paced and Authentic in the Clancey Tradition!

Another great Tom Clancey novel with themes and content that could just as easily emerge as he as headlines of tomorrows newspapers. The sorry was read in elegant fashion with attention to detail in a script which required expertise in English, German, and French. I enjoyed it very much.

Mediocre

I felt the narration was mediocre to say the least. It was if the narrator was bored and merely"reading" to book to stay awake. This definitely affected my poor impression of the plot which was lacking a definite Tom Clancy aura.
I was disappointed in this novel.

If you like the Tom Clancy style, you will enjoy this

Amazing how close these come to today’s reality. As always, filled with technical details, maybe a little light on character development, but entertaining nevertheless.

Where to begin...

You’d think in 2018 a book about kicking the crap out of neo-nazis would be just what the doctor ordered...but sadly this book is garbage. It meanders from one improbable scene to the next, each chapter more bafflingly absurd than the last.

This is, without a doubt, the worst thing every associated with the Tom Clancy brand (and yes, I’m factoring in his brief foray into frozen TV dinners in the early 90s).

Not worthy of being called a Clancy novel

I understand creative license and freedom, but this story was simply ridiculous. A man in a wheelchair going for miles through the forest of Germany to rescue a damsel in distress all while being chased by neo-Natzi's with guns; really?!?!?!

Awful

I was very disappointed in this Tom Clancy book. It was very confusing. It just did not meet up to my expiration.

Clancy is crying in his grave.

Poorly written, with gross inaccuracies. Nowhere near a Clancy standard. Waste of time and money. I couldn't wait for it to be over. Clancy is crying in his grave and the publisher should be ashamed.
