Anybody ever read Submarine U-137 or The Silent Service:Seawolf Class?

If so, how are they?

Seawolf Class wasn't too bad, but it almost reads like the first part of a much larger story. LA Class was better.

I second TLAM. The plot was a little predictable but I will be the first to admit I re-read it a couple times, and I was sad when it ended up getting mold from being stuffed in the trunk of my car.
I enjoyed LA class a lot, and I want to read Grayback class...
