I really enjoy Steve Perry's works. The characters continue to be well developed and interesting to follow. I also like how the author takes some feasible aspects of science and assumes there are some advances that will take place which enable the plot to be tenable.

It was ok, the action and story was pretty mediocre

Another Tom Clancy has been written and once again I have read it as always. This book was not one of the greatest books that I have read from Tom Clancy but it was still a great book to read. What this book is about is about a scientist who develops a way to use a low frequency ray to mess with the minds of people all over the world. The director of Net Force must do all that he can to stop him from using this powerful tool, or selling it to the Chinese. It doesn't help that the scientist has

This book was written in 2000, and imagined what the "net" of 2010 might be like. I'll admit, the views of the kooky visual virtual reality was pretty laughable when reading with the advantage of being in the year 2014, obviously that wasn't really the way things played out. Of course I understand, nobody could've seen the whole wireless / smart phones and tablets trend coming, and that completely changed the trajectory of future technology. Now, aside from the hokey look at the tech of the futu...

Another solid entry on the Net Force series. I like how some storyline are still left open, while some have partial closures. It's always good to see when the team faces incredible foes like Ventura, and to have action-packed segments such as when Howard goes to Gakona.

Kinda what's happening now. Net Force.

The last 150 pages make good on the Tom Clancy name, but the first 200 are like a soap opera written for men. If you've been reading this series in order, you might be invested enough to care about these characters' personal lives, i.e. their romantic and familial relationships. If you come into it cold, however, the first half of BREAKING POINT will have you as bored as a ten-year-old watching C-SPAN.The excitement doesn't build so much as go from zero to sixty in five seconds flat. It takes fo...

Not quite as good as the previous one but still plenty of fun.(Note: I'm stingy with stars. For me 2 stars means a good book. 3 = Very good; 4 = Outstanding {only about 5% of the books I read merit this}; 5 = All time favorites {one of these may come along every 400-500 books})

Honestly this story just wasn't REAL exciting. It took TOOO long to develop and spent more time reading like a whose dating who and who wants to sleep with who story, then an action novel. I know I've read better Net Force books. But I won't be in a hurry to read another one if they are going to be as humdrum as this one.

In this book, the fourth of the Net Force series, Perry finally throws off much of Clancy's influence and heads straight for the mystical martial arts and spiritual stuff he's famous for. He still throws in the token cool new guns in each book (described carefully by name and features), and keeps the military mission at the end intact, but the missions are starting to tend more toward 1-1 martial arts tournaments, with the military taking a back seat.In this one, Alex is in deep trouble with Ton...

Alex Michaels is the commander of NetForce and has the job of protecting the US from cyber attacks. This book is the last in the series of Net Force(I believe)and wraps up the series. In this book a Dr. has made a deal with the Chinese to manufacture a machine that will alter peoples minds through sound waves and environmental factors. The ultimate connection between NETFORCE and this Dr. is that half of the formula is published online and NETFORCE finds it but, the Chinese have already found it...

As with all works of fiction, the authors throw in a mixture of fictional characters and situations into some real world locations and personalities. Copyrighted in October 2000, it is a book of what they thought the future, 2010 might be like. Now in September 2009, we realize that some things are more advanced and others have not reached to dreams the authors had for the future. This book kept me interested from the beginning to the end.

I stumbled over this book accidentally.I was actually looking for a sci-fi thriller and now I wish I should've rather read another book. Had no strength in story , lots of side-stories, lack of thrill, lengthy.I was tempted by the title of the book and the series is also familiar to me as I had played some games of Tom Clancy which was brilliant. Didn't knew that the book will be that poor.

** "Breaking point" by Steve Perry is 4th in the Net Force series. Starts with Toni in England, ends with her pregnant and proposed to, epilogue to her as dieu ex machina. Per the formula, the book starts with death, a test of brain waves sent amok. A meek scientist hires an assassin mercenary leader for protection while he negotiates with the Chinese, to sell the weapon, and Net Force operatives intervene. Mostly live action, or tense threat of, and only some of Toni's martial arts jargon. Cast...

An excellent continuation of the Net Force franchise. The authors had taken great strides to make the first few books in the series flow from one to the next. Look forward to reading Point of Impact next. It saddens me that with each Clancy book read, I am closer to finishing the Clancy collection. RIP.

Fun premise: American scientist gets hold ofa formula to make a Death Ray using ELFs(extra-low frequencies) which drives its targets murderously insane. The scientisttakes the weapon for a few "test drives"to prove its effectiveness: twice in China,once in Oregon, USA.His plan? Sell the secret to the Chinese for$400 million. So...Net Force has to find him(and his hired security chief) before the secret can be sold.Lots of fun hide-n-seek espionage and black ops type stuff. Discussion of weaponry...

These books are actually getting better and the author is doing a nice job in developing the characters with solid storylines. This story line was the best so far and I enjoyed the pace of the action. Look forward to the next one

Not very good. Shallow characters, improbable situaton, deus ex machina ending. Good for when watching kids a beach: won't distract you enough to overlook them

I needed a change of pace, and I sure got it. Fun to read about cyber security and weird technology. I was certainly relieved that we didn't have to wade through a lot of Clancy type detail like how nuclear fusion works and the inner mechanics of a submarine--good grief. This was fast moving with lots of interesting characters, nefarious and noble. It was a quick read.

Breaking Point is about a team of FBI agents called Net Force. This story of a dangerous plot to rule the world has caught the attention of the Net Force. This book tells the story of cyber crime fighting. Breaking Point is a very violent and exciting chronology of the science of death and destruction.
