Just finished reading Alistair MacLean's "HMS Ulysses" an excellent novel on all accounts. Very gripping perspective on the Russian convoys, and many other themes of the human condition. I just happened to pick it up by chance at a used book store in Cambridge.

Kinda surprising that it was not made into a movie like MacLean's other works. (Where Eagle's Dare, Force 10 from Navarone, The Guns of Navarone...)

opinions?
