Torpedo: Jeff Edwards brings cutting edge naval warfare to life in a frightening adventure. Torpedo moves as fast as its name suggests with an imaginative plot grounded in authoritative technical reality. I'm a slow reader and I ripped through this in two days because it was engaging and flowed well. This book is fun to read and serves as insight into the world of modern naval combat.

God Does Have a Sense of Humor: Ballister’s book is therapy. Instead of tearing through it, I set it aside for nights where I was tired and cranky and needed to be reminded through humor that someone has always had a worse day. This book lifted my spirits and kept me going on rough nights. I may read it again. To the author – thanks for sharing and mission accomplished

Street Fight in Iraq: Like combat patrols in Iraq, 'Street Fight' shoots for effect with no concern about hurt feelings or diplomatic fallout, and it's authenticity makes it beautifully vulgar. Somewhere in this book I forgot I was reading a diary and felt like I was on patrol with Fox Company in Ramadi. Everyone who cares about America, Iraq, or the Marine Corps would benefit from sharing Gunny Sergeant Pat Tracy's perspective,and we're lucky he wrote it down.

Of Ice and Steel: The premise of a historic German submarine being frozen in ice and coming to life is by itself interesting and refreshing enough to crack open the book, and Meadows has the real world experience to back up his imagination. It's also being made into a movie, giving it that 'Holy Grail' aura that tells you there's good stuff within.

Straits of Power Joe Buff is the best selling author among our naval fiction group for good reason. I've read six of his submarine novels in the German-South African vs. the world, restricted tactical nuclear war scenario and found them to be brilliant and entertaining.

Seas of Crisis: If you enjoy naval fiction, get all of Joe Buff's submarine adventure novels. Fortunately, he's a best seller, and most of them are available in paperback. However, if you stock a respectable library of hardbound fiction, I urge you to get his original publications on your shelves.
