Improbable and impossible

Let's walk across a mined seabed and get blown up.

Let's go out in impossible conditions, tie two MASSIVE submarines together and using muscle-power pull the two MASSIVE submarines together to simultaneously without co-ordination speed up slow down rise and sink together.

Honestly just reading to see how much more stupid and improbable it gets.

I'm starting to think the author doesn't know what he's writing about.

Unbelievable!

I just kept wanting to scream ! It made no sense at all. How can you tie two subs together underwater, what would you use as fenders, and why would you ever want to do that? LOL (-:

Gotta have faith

Lots of very unexplained technology. Things I just can’t happen. No man can walk on the ocean floor in a 40 knot current.

Thrill ride!

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.

The only problem with this series -- I lose sleep as I can't put the book down until I finish. A fascinating insight into the nuclear submarine world.

Disappointing

I wanted to read an action book, not a sleeze book. Action was OK, but between was a lot of unnecessarily sleeze and cursing that added nothing to the story.
