Human torpedoes

Decent story, but a bit too much romance and soul searching for me, not One of Dougie’s best.

Stirring war story

A stirring and entertaining war story. This author has a good handle on combat and war and writes a fine tale with tense combat sequences but also covered the effects of war on the characters. David Rintoul does a fine job with the narration bringing the story to life.

Formulaic

I do like Douglas Reeman stories usually however this one is a tired rehashing of a standard formula which was extremely predictable with unbelievable instant romances and clearly define baddies and goodies a poor example of his work
