Tom Clancy created the Splinter Cell series and David Michaels wrote the book. I had thought I was buying a book written by Tom Clancy. I was in the Cosmopolitan Bookstore, seller of used books. Unfortunately, the Cosmopolitan will be closing. Paperbacks were reduced to a couple of dollars. I had never read a Tom Clancy book, saw his name big on the cover and grabbed it, not realizing he wasn't the author. The book is based on the Ubisoft game "Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell."

Not a bad mistake because the book was entertaining, the lead character a tough government agent with the job of saving us from a nuclear strike on Los Angeles.

I'm still curious about reading a Tom Clancy book, so I'll be getting one which he had written, one that hasn't been made into a film. ( )

Awesome book with tons of cliff hang, i recomend this book for teens-adult. several reasons, which are: several descibed sexual contents, and a lot of swearing. ( )
