It’s been ten years since a mysterious incident in the South China Sea annihilated a US Navy destroyer and its Navy SEAL team. Only one man survived this horrific tragedy. Now, as more of these strange, supernatural events are happening around the world—with deadly consequences—the US Navy calls on sole survivor Harold “Hawk” Masters to put a stop to the evil forces behind these crimes.

Masters reluctantly returns, dispatched to lead an elite team of soldiers like him—all survivors of the terrifying, evil deeds of “the other side.” As these frightening events escalate at an alarming rate, SEAL Team 13 is put to the test, battling malevolent undead creatures that threaten the security of the nation—and the world.

But not everyone supports the government’s new interest in facing off against the unnatural forces that threaten the welfare of its citizens. Could Hawk Masters’ secret military force also be forced to fight shadowy opponents from within?

From world-building author Evan Currie, SEAL Team 13 is a dark, riveting, and action-packed tale of military intrigue and supernatural horror.

About the Author

Evan Currie is the bestselling author of the Odyssey One series, the Warrior’s Wings series, and more. Although his post-secondary education was in computer sciences, and he has worked in the local lobster industry steadily over the last decade, writing has always been his true passion. Currie himself says it best: “It's what I do for fun and to relax. There's not much I can imagine better than being a storyteller.”

A blend of urban horror and military fiction

Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2021

Verified Purchase

This was a completely different feel from the other books of Evan's I read in the past. Is it based firmly in military protocols and theory, yes it is. But the fight here isn't a space fight, or a fight against aliens, it's a fight against what goes bump in the night. This is the first of what I hope are many in a series from Evan Currie as he builds a new world for us to enjoy.

I've got the audible version and like all of his books the narration is spot on, making it feel like you're listening to a radio show from YEARS ago.

Loved it, really loved it, but it's not SF per se

Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2018

Verified Purchase

I was up reading to 4 AM reading it. I love well-written books in contemporary military fiction (which I find to be less common than people think), urban horror, supernatural, and mythology. This book is a blend of all of those. The comparison to Monster Hunters is easy to make, but not totally fair to either author. ST 13 is more military-centric, and more mythological-based.

This book captivated me not only for the "flying in from left field" mythology and history references popping up, but more than anything for the interplay between the characters on the team. Oh, and the sarcasm and sardonic wit.

As one might expect from a story centered around highly-competent, mission-oriented military operators (and some not-so-military but still grimly determined other professionals), there's not a lot of deeply introspective angst going on here. No one asks "are we doing the right thing ?" when faced with genuine monsters. And a lot of backstory is not explained in this book. But . . .

This morning when I got up, I immediately looked for more in the series. Really hoping for more. You listening, Mr. Currie ?

If you like Monster Hunters, Inc., you;ll like this one!

Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2014

I picked up this book based on my enjoyment of other books by Evan Currie. Rather than the futuristic or space-based themes in other books by Currie, this one is current day based, with an ex-military main character (U. S. SEAL) going up against a supernatural world that is all around but unseen by most.

If you want a fast-paced and engrossing action/adventure novel with a realistic feel and military basis, you will like this book. Currie's knowledge of (or research and advice on) current weaponry and tactics adds a realistic feel to the book that is much beyond many other military action/adventure books.

It's impossible for me to discuss this book without mentioning the similar-but-different "Monster Hunter, Inc" series by Larry Correia. I won't go into a comparison here, other than to say if you like Monster Hunters, Inc., you will like this book, and vice versa.

Pros:
Fast paced
Realistic feel and actions
Hard to put down

Cons:
Characterization is adequate, but not deep. Not a psychological thriller if that is what you are looking for.
Could have been longer without feeling stretched. Some of the characters are too lightly fleshed out and some actions that were just mentioned as a transition could have been expanded to strengthen the story line and enjoyment.
The ending felt a bit abrupt. The story line wrapped up by the end of the book, but left many open issues. That won't bother me as much if Currie writes another few books to make this book into the start of a series.

Liked Currie's SF, not too fond of this vampire/supernatural/horror themed military thriiler

Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2014

Verified Purchase

More like a 2.75.

In these not very creative times the pattern seems to be that whenever there is a big hit book, play, or TV show--be it a Western, Cop, Lawyer, quirky family or group of friends or roommates, spy/special ops, Zombie or Vampire themed entertainment--there follows an explosion of imitative books, TV shows, and stage plays on the same theme.

I've read and enjoyed pretty much all of the SF that Curie has written, and normally I avoid supernatural/horror/vampire themed books, because I think that vampire/zombie themed books/TV shows are just the current, widely imitated "big thing," and that they are, from my experience, usually pretty crappy.

However, given Currie's track record I decided to read Seal Team 13, which turned out to be just as formulaic and imitative as I had feared, featuring a plot reminiscent of a lot of other books I have read, stock characters, and one of the things I really don't like seeing in a story, a hero who--very unrealistically--takes an enormous beating and still manages to win and survive, afterward limping along, but not dead, nor apparently headed for intensive care and/or due for many months of recuperation and rehabilitation, and still perhaps permanently crippled, as would be the case in real life.

This first volume looks like the setup for a series, but I hope not.

Vampires? Really?

Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2014

Verified Purchase

Let me just say that I love Evan Currie's books. I've read all of the Odyssey One and Warrior's Wings series and thoroughly enjoyed them. Great military science fiction. When the Seal Team 13 series began, I was more than willing to jump on the initial installment. I have to say, he didn't hit it out of the park for me this time. Even though I've read Neil Gaiman and loved his books, I'm not a big fan of stories based on the legendary monsters of Earth lore. I typically stay far away from vampire and werewolf and Thor and such stories. But that's where Currie takes us. If you like that sort of thing, this will be right up your alley.

To compound my frustration with this book is Currie's over-the-top style of the prose. It's like Robert Ludlum on steroids. His past books didn't seem so overblown in the dialogue and descriptions.

All of that said, the question is will I read the other books that will surely follow? I told my wife about all this and she asked me that question about halfway through the book. I told her I would likely only read more if I got hooked into the characters and general storyline. So, I guess the answer is "Yes", I'll keep reading, but there is a limit on my willingness to stretch. If nothing else, it serves to remind me why I should never have anything to do with Twilight.

Thanks again Kindle

"Recommended for you" by Amazon Kindle was "Seal Team 13: Liberation". Only after finishing that book did it reveal "Seal Team 13" .

Why is it so difficult to recommend books IN THE ORDER THEY WERE WRITTEN???

Corporation algorithms tell them what you eat for breakfast but not, apparently, the order in which books are published.

Good job the story was brilliant.

Highly entertaining, if somewhat unbelievable

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 7, 2022

Verified Purchase

It's fast paced from the get go
Hawk learns that mythical beings really do exist and after one of them kills almost all of his team, he gets kicked out of the SEALs.
The rest of the book is about him coming in from the cold and organizing a new SEAL team that targets these mythical creatures.
No massive surprises, but the concept of "the veil" is an interesting one and makes for a clever way to differentiate between the normals and the knowers

More Giant Monsters Next Time Please..And Less Vampire/Zombies....

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 17, 2014

Verified Purchase

An interesting idea but perhaps not fully developed. Obviously meant to be the beginning of a series, this leaves quite a few unanswered questions. Wasn't greatly impressed by the writing either. I thought the supernatural elements were disappointing, I expected a greater variety of monster/creature but all we got was a rather boring succession of setpieces involving vampires (that really are more like zombies) that just felt unoriginal and with a very underwhelming climax involving a female vampire that brought to mind the Evil Dead creatures more than anything. Such a letdown after the promising opening few pages where a seriously massive squid/octopus/kraken type creature drags down a US Destroyer and crew. It recalled the rather splendid Harryhausen movie from the 1950's called It Came From Beneath The Sea. Unfortunateley the said leviathan in this book fails to make any reappearance leaving us with the tired and tawdry zombie vampire things.

Perhaps a follow up will improve things and bring us more Kraken but I'm not sure I would take another bite..

a fun and very easy read with a flaw

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 20, 2013

Verified Purchase

I barely put this book down. Like the rest of Currie's work, this is a fun and very easy read, and the military bits work really nicely, however, the central idea was begging to be explored in much more detail. And the opposition was a bit - well, it was an opportunity to be a bit more exotic or exciting than it was, I think.

MINOR SPOILER:

This book works around the idea of something called The Veil which separates the supernatural world from the mundane world. When a mundane learns about the supernatural he or she crosses over and attracts the attention of things on the other side. This is talked about a lot - but NOT shown - NOT explored. This was probably the best idea in the book but it's not used at all.
This book uses a formula: Something bad happens in the past to the hero who is damaged by the experience and has his career ruined. Jump forward 10 years. Something similar happens and our hero is called back by superiors who must finally admit that something is going on that they cannot understand. This 'now' scenario scenario is then explored by military operators and extremely cool people(TM) with only repeated allusions to the whole veil thing - so many allusions that it became a little irritating.

If it's so important EXPLORE IT! Grrr.

So, I liked the book. It had a flaw. In my opinion.

Another Belter.

Well Evan Currie has pulled another great piece of entertainment out of the literary hat. He really can't do any wrong at the moment.

This is the first non sci-fi book that I've read by Mr. Currie - instead it's more of a military gothic horror effort. Maybe a bit Stargate(ish) but entirely based on Earth. Anyway he does the mix of military gung ho mixed with magic and monsters brilliantly. The story is tight and well written and the dare I say it - fantastical - bits are kept under control so they don't take away from the human aspect of the main protagonists.

The dialogue is great fun, and as per usual Currie has written this properly with literary correctness and good editorial control. He really can write well. To be honest he could easily do a full on thriller in the mode of Tom Clancy - he's easily that good at this genre.

So we have a washed up ex-Seal who has been brought back into the fold because of his knowledge of things that do not fit into the normal scope of conventional military thinking. He has collected a small group of others - soldiers - who have also found out too much about what is behind the 'Veil,' and these gentlemen are brought together to form an unconventional Seal unit with explicit orders to find out what is going on.

Great characterisation, fun OTT characters and a lots of action. It's not going to challenge someone who wants to read Shakespeare but for those looking for a fast paced military-fantasy crossover thriller then this is perfect. Currie is a brilliant find.
