Just finished reading "Dangerous Ground" by Larry Bond. I've always enjoyed Bond's books - he's sort of a slightly less ideologue than Clancy, but still has a lot of technical background. "Dangerous Ground" was pretty good..a bit slow, but that can be the nature of submarines right? I did notice some spelling errors, about four of them, which always trips me out in a big time published book. The plot is interesting enough...although the end seems a bit rushed.

It was enough to make me fire up the old Red Storm Rising PC Game using DOSBox... Might have to take a look at finally breaking the seal on Dangerous Waters too..

I gave it relatively the same assessment. Good, but not great. I found the modern day PC nonsense permeating the entire book as well as the standard love story ending.
