1.0 out of 5 starsWould have been better if...
By M. Renlund on March 7, 2010
Format: Mass Market Paperback
the main characters from the other books had been in this one.

I have enjoyed reading about Charlie and Lia's exploits around the world, the high tech gear they use, and the people who support them. All the way from the first book of the series have I followed them. I was excited for a new "chapter" in their story.

Unfortunately for me, the main characters I know and love are largely absent from this book's pages. More time is spent setting up the story, and then bolstering the story than is spent following Charlie trying to end the crisis. Lia seems to only be in as an afterthought.

There just seemed to be little to no real imagination in the writing. Plot lines were obvious, and it didn't have the feel of a techno-thriller.

There were a few great moments, but that was about it. It just wasn't worth my time in the final analysis.

1.0 out of 5 starsWhere is Jim DeFilice?
By George N. Lawrence on April 18, 2010
Format: Mass Market Paperback
The first six of the Deep Black series with coauthor Jim DeFilce were great: full of action and the repeating zaney characters. With coauthor William Keith the beautiful but ill-tempered Lia DeFrancesca has all but disappeared. Charlie Dean mostly shows up at the end to shoot a few people. Rubin does have a small part, but not a particularly interesting one. And horror of horrors Coonts and Keith have killed off the loveable jokester Tommy Karr in their first collaboration Artic Gold--also a disappointment.

My advice is stick with the first six with Jim DeFilce who has injected energy and entertaining character development with other authors including Richard Marchinko, Larry Bond, and Dale Brown. He is also good on his own, for example Warbreaker.

I am not buying another Coonts/Keith collaboration.

4.0 out of 5 starsCross "Airport" with the Achille Lauro incident and it might sound like this
By Daniel Berger VINE VOICE on May 27, 2012
Format: Mass Market Paperback
I never don't like a Deep Black novel and this one is no exception.

Jihadi terrorists simultaneously hijack a British cruise liner and a nearby freighter loaded with reprocessed plutonium headed for Japan. What their goal is isn't clear, but you know it's got to be horrible.

So, it's a little bit "Airport" and a little bit "The Love Boat" crossed with the real-life Achille Lauro cruise ship hijacking of the 1980s, in which the elderly, wheelchair-bound Leon Klinghoffer was shot and dumped over the side.

This is a high-tech ship, with every passenger trackable from the microchip in their bracelets, every inch of ship monitored by cameras -- and the whole system accessible through a ship's security officer extorted by a kidnapping.

The good guys have a couple of people aboard -- two MI-5 agents investigating a murder back at the harbor, and a British agent seconded to NSA's Deep Black team who is on board, posing as a tourist, to help NSA penetrate its system. They do their best to suss out what's going on and report back without getting caught.

Meanwhile the cruise features the estranged couple trying to get back together, the prima donna rock star whose reckless lifestyle a la Spears and Lohan has a TV news crew in tow waiting for her to melt down, her diva-weary manager, a group of old lady tourists, the ship security officer on the make -- the usual disaster-film ensemble. One feature player: a robot named Rosie who can not only deal cards in the ship's casino, but banter and flirt with the customers as well.

NSA's William Rubens wants to put Deep Black's new Black Cat commando team into play.Read more ›

3.0 out of 5 starsZzzzz overreaching and lacking credibility
By Rabid reader on August 25, 2014
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
A serial adventure but just that. Far too predictable and I don't care how awesome Charlie and crew's technology is terrorist aren't as well organized as this one was and then blundering fools 10 minutes later. British SAS similarly wouldn't try frontal assault in broad daylight

1.0 out of 5 starsA Fake
By Jerry on April 26, 2010
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
Deep Black books should be about the team. I think this book was altered to include a few deep black characters so it could be marketed as a deep black novel. The deep black members are hardly recognizable, and they are why I follow this series. Mr. Keith has sadly ruined a good series.

1.0 out of 5 starsDisappointed in the South
By Walter J. Worsham on March 20, 2010
Format: Mass Market Paperback
This was a very disappointing read. All previous Deep Black novels have been full of action. It was a struggle to get through the first three quarters of this tale. It ended well with Charlie finally getting into some action. This one suffers from TMI and not enough action.

4.0 out of 5 starsGood but missing some key features
By J. Murray VINE VOICE on July 12, 2010
Format: Mass Market Paperback Verified Purchase
I love stories of how hi-tech gizmos solve crimes and this one, as well as all of Stephen Coonts' Deep Black series, does that. But, I've become attached to Deep Black's key characters, Lia and Charlie. They show up at the beginning wrapping up other jobs they're on, sporadically throughout for reasons almost unrelated to the main plot, and then Charlie arrives at the end to save the day. As a result, the brilliance of the plot suffers. It is Charlie and Lia who usually come up with creative solutions to impossible problems and in Sea of Terror, the bad guys win too often. I'm quite sure if Coonts had allowed Lia and Charlie to be more involved, the cruise ship would have been rescued much sooner.

The other issue that bothered me was that Coonts spent too much time on political machinations. I don't like political thrillers (with the exception of Advise and Consent). We have enough in the real world.

Despite all of this, I still gave it a 4 out of 5. A big reason is that there aren't that many good techno-thrillers on the market, so I saver each one. But my recommendation to Coonts is, stick with the characters you've developed in this series. They are why we buy the book.
