Actually, I'd limit it to only Nimitz class, and even that was only adequate. And it wasn't "downhill", it was more like there was a cliff, and after Nimitz Class his grade basically dropped off the cliff.

His objective seems to be to try and make us hate every character in his book. In Kilo Class, basically he makes the Americans a bunch of pirates and saboteurs - murdering countless lives and destroying billions of dollars of equipment. I actually cheered when the CHinese hit the US carrier in The Shark Mutiny.

Then there was USS Seawolf. I guess he must have known that he made America too much of an A-hole in Kilo Class, and the American was spying, so he decides to try to make us hate the Chinese with the torture. That's OK, but he decides to ruin what had been a "good" (in this kind of book: warhawk) PResident with that Linus Clarke.
