Do You like book The Shark Mutiny (2001)?
Picked this on up at a used book, half price sale. It had a submarine in flames on the cover. What the heck. A good action-packed testosterone romp thru the pre-9/11 world. Bad guys are bad, good guys are good. US military uber alles. Robinson loves St Ronnie of Reagan, hates Clinton, loves Iron Pants Maggie, hates journalists and any cuts to the military budget. His depiction of the military action is enjoyable and realistic. The seals are tough hombres. Hats off to them. I think the court marshal at the end of the book was a less than a good way to end the thing. A good summer read never-the-less.

I liked the details and descriptive ways in which the author portrayed the action sequences. It reminded me a lot of Tom Clancy actually. However, I felt the characters were weak and unbelievable. The SEALs were portrayed as flawless, brave, courageous, and tragic heroes. While I don't mind having a somewhat over the top antagonist, the paragraphs of adoring compliments for the military quickly gets tiring. The plot was also just plain unbelievable. I mean, I can accept that PacFleet would flood
