Reviews

  • Good story but bad editing/proof reading

    The story was good, although the style had deviated from the first 2 books that had parts about Sam Fisher written in a first person narrative from his perspective, which had made the earlier novels quite interesting and refreshing to read. However my it was disappointing to find spelling and grammatical mistakes through the book, which distracted the reader from fully enjoying the story and which could have been easily detected and corrected.
  • Good book.

    Great story. I'm a big splinter cell fan. There are quite a few typos and parts of sentences missing though... Over all, I still think it's a good book.
  • Typos galore

    I have never seen so many typos and missing words. At times, it is a distraction from the story, especially at crucial plot points. All of the books I own together do not contain as many mistakes. Otherwise, it is a great story in the classic Fisher style.
