The Snare’s first casualty: the nuclear sub carrying the son of former admiral Michael Pacino. The only man who can match wits with the SnarePacino reenters the game in a high-tech underwater battle unlike any that’s been fought before, one that could engulf the world in war—and bring him face-to-face with his nemesis…

Last of the series

Exciting action but too unbelievable for my tastes. Also we are back to one sub being able to defeat entire navies by itself. A little too much of the stars of the book having miraculous recoveries.

My first (and last) book by this author. Maybe I should have read them in order, as there were various references to things that happened previously. I guess that they were in earlier books. Way too much technical stuff going on, which I found boring and a few unbelievable things that happened. So page 50 was enough for me. Won't bother with any more

An easy read

I'm glad I finished the series. Not quite the finale I was hoping for. Still easy, and at times fun.

My review

Another great read completed. I love the author's development of the characters, equipment and story. His details draw you in.

[Richard Katzman · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great story and fast reading.

I liked the fact that the story moved a long and kept me engaged from start to finish. I plan on reading more of books.

I don't know about the physics of advanced propulsion but this novel rocks.

[Ian Birtwell]

Another very enjoyable book. Plot was good, characters were great. Looking forward to reading the next!

Interesting plots. Jumps around too much between events and characters. Half submarine book and half engineering manual. But overall an interesting volume with some linear thinking on future developments.
