The closest we get to a personal detail is when he wishes he could go to a steakhouse he knows in Taiwan while in port there. The captain Mack is 2 dimensional, which gives him at least 1 dimension more than anyone else in the book. The submarine cheyenne ends the war with over 60 confirmed kills of chinese combat vessels and if the chinese military was actually that bad their sailors should save themselves the effort of putting to sea and shoot themselves. The closest we get to a per Not really a novel, instead its 15 scenarios for submarine combat in a war between the US and renegade elements of the chinese military.

I can see why this was collecting dust in a used bookstore.and guess what? It's going back.more "I guess we just broke Murphy's law," Mack replied, his voice as calm and efficient as ever. That submarine captain sure owes us one." It's like reading the script of a Michael Bey movie. Uh, what the fuck? Is he talking about the oscillation if the waves? When he means wavelength, does he mean the distance from top of a wave's crest to another wave? I'm having to use my science background to figure this crap out and there is never any explanation of the numbering of sea states prior to this sentence.Īnother gripe. "Otherwise, she would have a tendency to pitch with a ten-second period due to a ninety-foot wavelength of sea state four." The book "explains" things in a way that after you finish the sentence, you still don't know what you just read. Heck, I'd rather read Wikipedia or articles about the different weapons, planes, subs, etc. A person might as well just read a fiction book or Wikipedia. I can't believe this was marketed as a strategic guide for sub warfare. It only has one character with a name who is not developed at all.
I figured I'd be ok with another book about submarines.
I have tried to read other books of his like Rainbow Six but I just can't pay attention. The Hunt for Red October is my fav Tom Clancy book and the only one I've read. I'm pretty sure it's over This book is super boring and I could only get to page 56 before I gave up on it. This book is super boring and I could only get to page 56 before I gave up on it.
