Description: "In the first book of this series, The War Beneath , former intelligence operative Truman 'Mac' McClusky is drawn back into the politics governing the underwater city of Trieste against his will. . . Just as author Timothy S. Johnston's characters often find themselves in tight spaces, literally and figuratively, they also find plenty of action on their way to everywhere. . . As a sequel, The Savage Deeps delivers on every level. The action is perilous, but not an exact repeat of what we've seen before. New technology abounds, all detailed with exhaustive research. Once again, Mac is the star of the production, a wonderfully complicated character written with delicacy. There is a point when you can push a character too far. Mac is nudged up against the edge and held there until you think he might break. These scenes, for me, are just as thrilling as watching Mac perform daring underwater maneuvers. The emotional impact of this book is just as compelling as in the first one." -- SFcrowsnest " The Savage Deeps is like a futuristic Das Boot with a lot of intense action and some interesting technology. Even though The Savage Deeps is the second in the series, it could easily be read as a standalone. The first book of the series, The War Beneath , primarily introduces the characters and gives a glimpse into what drives Truman McClusky, definitely a worthy read, but The Savage Deeps is considerably more action packed. Since the ending was full of spine-tingling thrills, I give The Savage Deeps a five star rating." -- A-Thrill-A-Week
