Product Description:
Sea Base is the latest development in naval technology. More than 80-acres long, the artificial island is a self-contained citadel carried atop eight Fast Sealift Ships and is able to launch aircraft and submarines at a moment's notice.
American Kiang Zheng learns where his true loyalities lie when he accompanies his parent to their ancestral land of China. Employed as an engineer with Sea Base, he is strategically positioned to serve the People's Republic.
Richard Zeichner is an agent of the NCIS assiged to Sea Base on this beta-test voyage. But, instead of observing the proceedings, his true mission is to uncover the identiy of a saboteur who will stop at nothing to send the floating fortress to the bottom of the sea...

A real pageturner--page after boring page of whining and moaning about how bad the navy brass is. This book sucks big-time.
Rating: -
This is easily the worst book I've read in years. Here's why:
- Inane dialogue. Sailors spend pages trash talking with no purpose. This is evidently the author's way to establish his "creds" with some sea talk. But the only time people actually talk like this is when they're bored and have nothing to do, not in the middle of a crisis. If things are really that boring, there's no point writing a book about it.

I've read all of David Meadows previous books and enjoyed them. They are good light reading with characters and plots that were sufficiently compelling to keep me looking forward to the next installment. I was really disappointed in this book, though. The characters, for the most part, weren't particularly likeable and the major plot points seemed to alternate between predictable and irrational. I didn't bother to read the rest of the books in this series.

Before I rant, let me make sure I state that I have read everything this author has put out. I loved the last two book series and I couldn't wait to start this one.
That being said, this book is bloated. There is far too much time spent with unimportant conversations taking place between the main characters and a massive amount of plot development that ultimately went almost no where.
There are two main plots. One involving the NCIS and one involving the main characters. ... Read More

I have been a fan of DAVID MEADOWS since reading his Sixth Fleet series. I enjoy this genre very much. The characters Mr. Meadows creates are larger than life and his plots are very exciting. Be warned however...once you begin this fabulous story you will not want to put the book down!!! That's a fact! I highly recommend this book and ALL books by David Meadows!
