    Captain's have to make hard decisions and people lose their lives. Sometimes to prevent certain death enemies must rely on each other to save their boats & their crews.

    Too bad it was so short, less than 300 pages. A series like this should be at the very least 450 pages.

    Loved the series

    The author spins a good tale. I did notice a few discrepancies, mostly small technology items. But all in all the book was very entertaining.
  • Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2024
    It's very obvious that the author never served on a submarine or used a qualified submariner as a technical advisor.

    Just a few examples: The klaxon sounds only twice, then the command , "Dive, dive!" is announced. You also don't order the submariner to dive by, blowing the ballast tanks. You would open the vents.

    A submarine's best defense is how quiet it operates. For some reason, his opponents would hear his "very advanced" submarine at unrealistic distances and always begin an unprovoked attack, forcing him to defend the boat. The protagonist, Capt. Boxer would always attack the perceived threat when just being quiet and using stealth, he would have been able to sneak away.

    The use of nuclear weapons would NEVER be used so cavalierly, even in wartime. In the story where the team planted a nuclear device in a dormant volcano and Capt. Boxer detonated it, he had to surface to see if it went off. Even at sixty miles, sonar would have heard it.

    I'm not even going into Boxer's explicit female encounters, which were totally unnecessary and detracted from the story.

    The story was unrealistic to the extreme.

    Lots of very unexplained technology. Things I just can’t happen. No man can walk on the ocean floor in a 40 knot current.
  • Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2024
    Divers casually going around in 12 to 40 knots of current (!!!) Good luck even keeping your mask on with just 3 knots… Complete nonsense. Great disappointment. It is not often that I do not finish a book I have started, but this one will be one of the few.

    I like submarine stories. There's a sense of mission, purpose, and comradery in them that I find lacking in the SF stories that I typically read (and there's a LOT of what I consider poor to bad SF "operas" out there nowadays!). So I like to read sub novels. But this one I just got tired of reading and stopped reading before the end. There's just so much realism missing here that I got the idea that the author had never been a submariner... I looked up his wikipedia entry, and yep, not a submariner! That explains what's missing and why there are so many things in this book that are missing in terms of reality and realism. They would be plot spoilers so I won't go into them (Amazon would "deep six" this review if I did). The author died in 2020 at the ripe old age of 91. And he did service in the Merchant Marine and as an infantry man during the Korean War so he does have a bit of experience, just not in subs. He wrote a lot of books...And there's no bio on his Amazon author's page. So, if you're OK with stories being light on realism you might find this book (and his subsequent books on subs...There's a lot!) Ok to read. So add your own review here and tell us what you all think. I'm the first reviewer here for this particular book.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Mills and Boon. In a sub. Fail. Author should read Tom Clancy's SSN for a clue...
    Reviewed in Australia on April 8, 2024
    The captain of the sub spends more time bedding women than fighting the enemy. I though the first book was an anomaly. The second is just as bad. The 3rd? Going in the bin. Mills and Boon romance novels, with a sub on the cover. Avoid.

    2.0 out of 5 stars Terrible reading
    Reviewed in Australia on January 5, 2023
    I had my misgivings about the first book in the series, and the second book confirmed it. The plot is terrible and totally unbelievable. Maybe it is meant to be science fiction- lasers fired under water and destroying a sub?? Then the captain of the sub being sex obsessed. Nothing else on his mind.
    No thanks!
