✦ Synopsis

Phoenix Sub Zero is the third novel in a series of submarine adventures that has been hailed by such as The New York Times and Publishers Weekly as among the best of underwater thrillers, including works by Tom Clancy - Michael DiMercurio's previous novel, Attack of the Seawolf, received specific comparison with Clancy's The Hunt for Red October (please see the back of this jacket). In Phoenix Sub Zero DiMercurio has written his largest, most seaworthy in every sense of the word, submarine epic. In a not-so-distant future the United Islamic Front is fighting what seems a losing war against a United Nations whose land-based task force is headed by a Navy Seal team and green berets. These forces are closing in on the UIF capital and its leader, General Mohammed al-Sihoud, who, however, manages to slip through the UN net and escape into the deep waters of the Mediterranean. Captain Michael Pacino of the USS Seawolf is hand-picked as the best officer in the U.S. Navy to find the hidden enemy, and the Seawolf is precisely right for the job. The consequent action is relentlessly tense and authentic, on the cutting edge of submarine state-of-the-art technology and fathomless human courage.
