Good Rainbow...., September 10, 2003
Reviewer:

I loved Rainbow Six because it added the realism that I love about Tom Clancy, but I gave this novel 4 stars because he messed up on one little thing. That thing being is that one of the charatchers Tom Clancy is referring to, is that he was born to a Chinese father and a Latino mother. One...when you are referring to a woman who has Latin blood in her, you dont call her a Latino, she is a Latina. Second Latina's dont date Asian's or Germans, they only go out with black's and other Latino's. But beyond that, this is a GOOD novel, the action is there, and this is one of his best novels, I just wish that Red Rabbit had the same action like Rainbow Six does. I also liked the charatcher Domingo Chavez, and another thing when his son was born, he named him John Connor Chavez. One other thing; A Latino man does not name his son John Connor Chavez or any other name that is not referring to his Latin roots. Latin men who have kids want their kids to have Latin names and for a Latino man to name his son John Connor Chavez is just out of the picture.
