Submarine Technology

It is refreshing to read a book on submarine technology where the author is intimately familiar with existing methods, procedures and technologies. Demecurio certainly is, and he uses to the best advantage. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and recommend it to anyone who likes tales of submerged warfare.John FishInstitute for Marine Acoustics

Two Pacinos, better than one!

I am a big fan of this series, and Mr. DiMercurio has not failed to keep me hooked with his latest installment. "Terminal Run" is a highly character driven and action packed novel that doesn't let you go until the last page. The twist that he throws at the end is unpredictable, and innovative for a book of this genre.There are a few authors, like John Sandford with his "Prey" novels, that can keep continuing characters, and the situations that they face, fresh and unique to the prior books in their series. Mr. DiMercurio is one of those who able to accomplish this difficult task. His main characters age and have careers that are realistic. They are also not omnipotent and without flaws. He is also able to tweak your imagination with the potential capabilities of future military hardware. The hardware is not perfect, and goes through a real-world evolutionary growth process. It truly makes you wonder what equipment the Navy is carrying on our new Seawolf class and upcoming Virginia class submarines.My only disappointment in reading "Terminal Run" is that I have to wait for his next installment. As with all of this novels, this book is a stand alone. There are brief mentions to storylines in his previous books, but they are not spoilers. Once you give this book a read, you will find yourself ordering the prior six books in this series.

Terminal Run

Terminal RUN is the best of the best. Detailed, intense action.The story reaches out and draws you in and carries you right into combat aboard a sub. I found the hairs on the back of my neck raising as I became involved in the plot. A great read! DIMERCURIO writes with far more excitement than rival TomClancy!

This is a terrific book by a great author.

Having read all of the author's previous books I was anxious to get my hands on his latest and I was not disappointed. The characters are more alive and the author has written in a way that I found to flow better. This is his best and it reads at a fast pace. It is a real page turner and kept me up very late. It was a book I didn't want to end, I wanted to savor it like a fine wine. I have never been in the military, much less onboard a submarine, but the author's writing style has always appealed to me and held my attention. If you have not read the author's other books on submarine warfare, do yourself a favor and read them.

THE BEST MICHAEL DIMERCURIO NOVEL

TERMINAL RUN is one of the most soulful, well-paced and exciting submarine novels ever written. This book carries on in the tradition of the DiMercurio submarine novel, with all his trademark character development, tense combat situations, intricate technology - that only works half the time! - and surprise ending. This is intense and satisfying, but will leave you longing for more...
