Author Captain David E. Meadows has outdone himself in this third book of his DARK PACIFIC series. Wow! I couldn't put it down long enough to sleep.

In this dramatic, exciting episode, Meadows's man-made island of Sea Base defends Taiwan and American and British forces from a Chinese war threat.

Captain Meadows is great at suspense, and the characters are so believable I felt as though I were in the midst of the action. You can't go wrong by "casting off" with this author's heroic characters; even the bad guys will intrigue you.

This a really different kind of sea story, highly recommended by everyone I know ... not only for men but for women and young adults too. Wait until you read about the phenomenal Sea Base; what a wonderful imagination Meadows has!

Also recommended: the first two books in this DARK PACIFIC trilogy and Meadows's other best-selling series: THE SIXTH FLEET and JOINT TASK FORCE.

David E, Meadows has done it again for the final of his 3 book series.
The action never stops and there is enough of Ships,Subs & planes to keep everyone happy.
David is great at what he does best: action on the high seas. Check out his other 2 titles : "The Sixth Fleet" @ "Joint Task Force" as they are just as great and will keep you on the edge of your seat.

The first two books in this series were much better than this one. It seemed as if the author was struggling to find a decent ending to the trilogy. He didn't. The end was too abrupt and left too many questions unanswered. I guess it's a good thing this was the final chapter.

This sequel is rather boring, not much action. Technics and tactics are very basic and sometimes unbelievable stupid (friend and foe alike). Only the idea of a floating island is a little funny.
I recommend stick with the elite.

"Dark Pacific: Final Fathom (Dark Pacific) by creative author David Meadows is a "MUST READ HIGH SEAS ADVENTURE" if ever there was one! The reader is quickly captured and held captive until the final page has been read! I absolutely LOVE this FUN WRITER! From start to finish the action does not stop! The characters are powerful and interesting and the dialogue flows at the speed of light! I was sad when the story ended. I will miss these fun characters and even more I will miss the exciting plot(s) of this must read series! Do yourself a huge favor and read ALL of Navy Captain David E. Meadows fun, fun, fun stories! He's terrific!

I started to read this books from all the so-called great reviews it recieved and was very dissapointed. I read a third of the book to be honest hoping that it would kick into gear soon! Well it never did.... The beginning is so weak in it's plot my four year old daughter could do better on her toy "Speak & Spell". Then this floating gaint battle thing! Oooooh give me a bucket!!! Totally unbelievable in it's concept. Please read "Run Spot Run" you will get a better read from that!
