As twin torpedoes from a renegade Iranian sub streak into the hull of their escort ship, the crew of the Yuduki Maru looks on in horror...
Their cargo includes two tons of weapons-grade plutonium. And now, with enough nuke fuel to arm a superpower, an alliance of fanatics threatens to poison a continent.
In a daring mission of high-seas heroism, Lt. Blake Murdock leads his seven-man unit from Team Seven's Red Squad into bulkhead-to-bulkhead battle -- with high-tech buccaneers who've got nothing left to lose...
Rated five stars because it marks the beginning of a 22 book series that I always turn to for great entertainment. Throughout the books there is a connection with some of the characters that one can only find in a book series of this size. Great book and I would recommend to anyone from 13 yrs old to 100.
Enjoy this first book of the series. Like most first books I thought it could use some cutting, but being the first it had to establish more then just the one book and I think it did that well. Seal Team Seven is a small force that was created for rapid raiding. In this book they are pitted against factions of Japanese terrorists and Iranian forces that want to take over their government. They plan to do this by stealing a Japanese ship that is loaded down with plutonium and using the deadly cargo to back up their demands. Seal Team Seven is on the front lines in getting the ship away from the terrorists.
Recommended, I believe the series will get better now that its been established what the series is, though this was a fun book.
First book in a long series, which after reading the first novel I'm willing to give book 2 a go.
Interesting to note that Keith Douglass is a publishing house name so the series is written by various authors. I guess this is standard practice but feels a bit of a cheat if I'm honest.
Seal Team seven is very interesting to me so far. Keith Douglass wrote this book so well that I feel connected to the charecters and the struggles they are having. The charecters are seven seal team agents that are trying to stay alive by them selves in enemy land. I would recomend this book for 13 years olds and up.
This is fast-paced, action-packed military fiction. This series features a top notch Navy SEALs team that does assignments for the president and the CIA.
