3.0�toiles sur 5 Finding Father, Mai 25 2001

Par	William H. Perry "mister_qc" (New River Valley, Virginia) - Voir tous mes commentaires (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Brink Of War (Paperback)

Brink of War continues the quest for Tombstone to find his father. We find the USS Jefferson in the North Sea, on a friendly mission with Russia in playing some war games. Tombstone gets evidence while in Russia, that his father is alive in the Ukraine, so he flies to Kursk. Meanwhile, in the North Sea, two to three Russian subs are hunting one of our subs who happend to be on a covert mission that was not explained. So, this book has two scenarios playing out, and is written in first person. Frankly, I would like the author to write in both third and first person, mix it up a little. Although, it is interesting to get the thoughts of the main characters. This book has a couple of good dog fights, but most of the fighting is one-sided and the ending was too quick. Will the next Carrier book pick up where this one left off, or will the Jefferson be in a whole new area. The quest for Tombstone's father apparently ends in this book.

This review is from: Brink Of War (Paperback)

This book, like everything else written by Mr. Douglass, will never find a high place in the history of the written word. Having said that, please understand that if you are interested in reading about Naval aerial combat... you can't miss the"Carrier" series. Even though I beliive that Mr. Douglass thinks just a bit too highly of the capabilities of the F-14 when compared to other, more modern fighters, he does tell a fine tale. My only other criticism would be that the author should abandon this story line about his father... it is getting kind of far fetched. The bottom line is that if you have a few hours to spend, they wouldn't be wasted if you read this.

This review is from: Brink Of War (Paperback)

What I really enjoyed about this chapter in the "Carrier" series is that it takes place in a narrative, so we "hear" what the characters are thinking. It's great to finally see what happens to Tombstone's father. The fact Keith Douglass is a Navy veteran helps give credibility to the military confrontations, and this is no different. I just wish there had been more of them! I'm glad he provided a glossary for the different terms used through the book. I'm eagerly waiting the next chapter!

4.0�toiles sur 5 Good, but I don't care for the new format.
Another good installment of the Carrier series with some of the same characters. Action and suspense was good. Added some political intrigue in this one. Read more
