New book by Jeff Rovin. Anyone read it?

Thinking about buying it, but its future setting makes me unsure considering how some of the books by DiMercurio have been reviewed.

Hey TLAM.
I bought that book over a year ago and couldnt finish it I thought it was that bad. Theres a supercavitating sub in it. Rolling Eyes
Makes Buff look good IMO.

Put your $$ towards Larry Bonds 'Dangerous Ground' instead.
Not action packed but a pretty good believable story. Well so far-still have a 100 pages to go...

Super cavitating sub eh? Rolling Eyes Wow that sounds bad. The cover made me think it was some AIP boat or something (the cover had a Collins on it)

Thanks for the warning, I have a few very good books on my must buy list and I would have hated to waste my scarce $$ it on a stinker.
