I watched this movie a while ago, and I wanted to read the book. Unfortunately, I ended up with a condensed version somehow. I'm guessing this was approximately 1/3 the size of the total novel.
The skipper of a sub is posted in the Pacific. The area is being terrorized by a captain nicknamed Bungo Pete. He loses a few friends and wants revenge.
I liked this book, but I could tell it was condensed. I don't think it was because the version was poorly done but more that it felt like it was over too soon. There were a lot of details about submarines and how they lined up and fired torpedoes. For some, I feel that might get repetitive, but I didn't mind it at all. I actually enjoyed it.
Maybe one day, when I don't have oodles of books to read, I might go back and try to find a complete copy to read what I missed. Good Book!
