About this listen

There is only one way to reunite a country that has been split by two bloody civil wars in thirty years, one of them nuclear: savage their external enemies and leave them so weak they cannot interfere with the union until stability is achieved. The newly reconstituted China–now the Federated States of the New Middle Kingdom–has a strike plan that will leave both the Russians and Americans bleeding and desperate to survive.

For there to be any hope of American and Russian vengeance, old allies, resurrected schemes from decades ago, and a plan as innovative as the 1942 Doolittle raid on Tokyo must all be put in motion. A cast of both new and favorite characters, driven by decorated submarine combat veteran Lieutenant Anthony Pacino, is forced to fight for not only his beloved submarine Vermont and the lives of his shipmates, but the fate of the Western world in an epic battle of undersea warfare.

Story Not Up To Usual Standard

Many small things make this story less believable than I am used to. No need for the contrived opening sabotage of the Vermont so it could adopt a clandestine blockade role. Many other vessels also engaged in that role including the Ambush that were not similarly afflicted with the sabotage. Irish special forces on the Ambush just in case - not believable. Also small things like Perth being on the Pacific Ocean - sorry to say but it’s the Indian Ocean on that side of Australia. The plot feels like if was somewhat hastily put together on this occasion.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
