Tom Clancy's Net Force
''Tom Clancy's Net Force'' is a novel series, created by Tom Clancy and Steve Pieczenik and originally written by Steve Perry. The original series ceased publication in 2006. There was also a spin-off of young adult books called ''Net Force Explorers''. The series was rebooted in 2019 with the ''Dark Web'' novel by Jerome Preisler. General ''Tom Clancy's Net Force'' is aimed at an adult audience, while the related series Net Force Explorers (which follows the adventures of a teen auxiliary of the Net Force in 2025) is aimed at the older teen market. The initial ''Net Force'' concept was alluded to in the third '' Op-Center'' novel, ''Games of State''; given that ''Net Force'' was created by the same two men who created the ''Op-Center'' series, it can be assumed that they occur in the same universe. However, no direct connection has yet been drawn between the two. Main characters These characters are in most or all books: Original series The books in the ''Tom Clancy's Net Fo ...
