3.0 out of 5 stars a little known gem, March 27, 2006
If you've gone this far to find this book, don't hesitate now. You're a very rare creature -- one who finds naval drama good reading. I stumbled across this novel when just a kid, in my grade school's library, believe it or not. I was already fascinated with the idea of commerce raiders and to get my hands on a novel about such a ship in world war one excited my imagination no end.

Reeman has no serious literary pretensions, but he does bring credibility to the subject; when he talks about life on the sea, you believe it implicitly. Quite the prolific writer, I only know this book and HMS Saracen, but I fully intend to dig deeper into his catalogue. I highly reccomend this novel and the writer for anyone who wants to get a hands on feel for naval combat in world war one and two. Good stuff not to be missed.
