The novel, which was published in December 2004, is the first of a series inspired by Ubisoft?s video game franchise Tom Clancy?s Splinter Cell. The book?s success reinforces the impact and value of the Tom Clancy?s Splinter Cell brand both within and outside of the video game industry, an asset from which Ubisoft will continue to benefit from in the near future.
The brand is an original creation developed by the company?s Montreal studio. It recounts the adventures of Sam Fisher, an operative for Third Echelon, a secret branch of the American National Security Agency. The book is also ranked eighth among the Wall Street Journal bestsellers in the ?Mass Market Paperback? category.
Ubisoft and a major motion picture studio located in Hollywood are currently discussing a possible movie rights deal that would adapt the adventures of Tom Clancy?s Splinter Cell for the big screen.
