Reed, a former submariner himself, details many unknown stories of "the silent service". Of special interest were the many clandestine and secret operations conducted by the "spooks" and underwater divers in the U.S. Submarine Navy.

This is the first book I have read from this author but it won't be the last. It was like an action thriller movie playing in my head while I was reading this book. Yes, rockets being launched is scary but not as scary as a submarine carrying torpedoes. I have always thought submarines were more scarier. Probably due to the fact that submarines can travel under the naked eye undetected.

The two main protagonists, Jon and Kate are endearing. They really are engaging and a bit flawed but this is what drew me towards them. Although, they did have help along the way. They aren't superheroes. The other cast of characters were just as engaging. I just love reading a book where everyone has a part but is contributing.

The last third of the story is where it really picked up. In fact, the last several chapters, you could say were almost nail biters.

COLD WAR lll is a book all the world should read but most especially, U.S. citizens!

We hear so much about “global warming” but as I read the accounting of the U.S., Russia & China’s nuclear powered submarines which penetrate the Arctic Circle frequently, I feel it may have as much impact on “global warming” as anything else! The United States and Britain are seemingly unaware of Putin’s strategy to side track their attention while he is formulating something far more dangerous and crucial to them in hope to control the world oil & natural gas distribution.

Russia and China are very close to becoming partners. If they unite…Read about it! it is very close to happening!

The U.S. administration has turned its back in many ways on protecting this country.

This book also discusses other issues but primarily it returns to Putin’s Russia & China vastly gaining power.

This book is a cry for the U.S. leader and citizens to get involved…Will Putin be the next Hitler…or worse?

W. Craig Reed covers the situation which has been developing for a few years and is close to becoming out of control. There is still time to stop it if we begin to pressure our leaders and are very careful who we elect as our next President…Time is of the essence!

The subject matter is very important and enlightening. It is a little too in-depth for the average person but I give it Four Stars because it is very important the people read it and understand what the world is facing.

Excellent telling of cold war submarine stories. The recounting of the role of Soviet submarines in the Cuban missile crisis is especially interesting.
