Fiction Sub/Naval books.
Looking for some good ones to add to my collection. I'd prefer WW2, Cold War, or Modern.
I have: SSN Silent Service Seawolf Class Submarine U-137 Red Storm Rising Hunt for Red October I think that is it. :hmmm: |
Das Boot
Run Silent, Run Deep (and its sequels) Up Periscope Pride Runs Deep On The Beach That's just off the top of my head. |

RSRD has sequels? |

and Cold is the Sea (1978), set in 1961 aboard a nuclear sub. Supposedly CITS includes some of his experiences transitioning to nuclear boats. He was the CO of USS TRITON when she did the first submerged circumnavigation. Tom |
I picked up 'To Kill The Potemkin' yesterday which is supposed to be good.
DiMercurio is usually entertaining. |
Nimitz Class
Kilo Class HMS Unseen All by Patrick Robinson, they are quite good reads and better than his later work. |
Check out the novels of Joe Buff and Michael DiMercurio and this.
Lots of great material here: SUBSIM Book Reviews Great list here at Armchair General I strongly recommend some of the best non-fiction works, if you have not already read: War Fish Wahoo Clear the Bridge And Subsim's best kept secret: Diary of a U-Boat Commander, a public domain book published by that guy who calls himself Neal Stevens :88) Have you already picked up the Subsim Almanac, Vol I and Vol II ??? What? No?? Come on, man! :cool: Definitely pick up a copy of Iron Coffins, it's really good, better than fiction (and some say has some fictional elements). |
periscopes away :up:
|
@ Neal. Thanks! I will check those out.
I forgot i had three more that i forgot to mention. I have Silent Victory, War in the Boats, and Scorpion Down. |

Harry Homewood - Final Harbor and Silent Sea.
He also has another I haven't yet gotten around to.... Torpedo. JD |
Typhoon by Mark Joseph
Typhoon by Robin White Boomer by Charles D. Taylor Dangerous Ground by Larry Bond I'm going to say Cold Choices by Larry Bond, too. It is the sequel to Dangerous Ground. I have both, but haven't read Cold Choices yet. I really enjoyed Dangerous Ground. |
I enjoyed P. T. Deuterman's Scorpion in the Sea and The Edge of Honor.
