Storm Force from Navarone

The surviving commandos are sent on a perilous journey through the Pyrenees to disable the greatest threat to the impending D-Day landings: the 'Werwolf' U-boats. But their Basque guides declare it mission impossible – D-Day is less than six days away.

Llewellyn Brilliantly Imitates MacLean

If I didn't know better I would have said Aliistair MacLean wrote this book. Even the cadence of the book followed MacLean's style. It of course helped that the reader was the same one who has done most of MacLean's other books. At any rate, Sam Llewellyn did a brilliant job. I'm looking forward to the next Navaron book.

Worrisome at first. But faithful

Missing a lot of the panache of MacClean's stories. Was almost ready to put it down in the first third, as Mallory, Andrea, and Miller seemed more liable to solve problems with heavy firepower than with the stealth and cunning I was used to. this slackened off however as the book went on and it could have easily been written by MacClean.

Old favorites

With the Storm Force Series you know what to expect and this one delivers in full measure.
