Similar story like Red Storm Rising / Red Phoenix
Hi,
my all time favorites are Red Storm Rising (reading currently the third time ) and Red Phoenix. Can somebody recommend me a 'similar' book (must have: naval warfare). Thanks ~ |

Well, since you're in the region of Red Phoenix, check out Cauldron by the same author

I might have to check out Red Phoenix. I loved Red Storm Rising! I was sad when I finished the book. A book you may like is Arc Light by Eric L. Harry. I don't remember much naval activity, if any, but it is still a very good read. I'm a naval fan myself, fact or fiction, and tremendously enjoyed Arc Light as much as RSR. Even though you prefer naval novels (much like myself) I still recommend you read Arc Light.

Try "Typhoon" by Robin White. If you liked Hunt for Red October, you'll like Typhoon.

If you can bear not having naval warfare - in any case, that book went too fast for naval warfare to be much of a factor, try Red Army - it is a whole different feel. The missing technical details (if you care about them) are amply compensated by the comparative level of tactical detail.
