I haven't been interested in reading a series since I was a kid, when I read Doc Savage novels and The Executioner. Those novels I digested in huge amounts. I was given Omega Sub a decade ago, when I was working as a security guard, and I just now got around to reading it. I was blown away. What a great premise, and the writing is excellent. This book is well written and full of action. I went through it in a day, and now I'm looking for the rest of the series. Not sure how many there are, but I'll get all of them. If the idea of rising in a nuclear powered submarine after two weeks underwater to find out your entire world has been obliterated by nuclear warfare catches your attention, I recommend this book to you.

In this very good story, we can feel a big influence of Star Trek, since it's an awesome and advanced ship with dinamic crew, and some really look like Kirk, McCoy and cia. The sea is their final frontier, and a ravaged new world is their "where no man has gone before". A good balance between action, mistery and both together makes this a worth reading sci-fi novel, and makes you looking forward to reading the next chapters.
