Historia
The story of Tang and her gallant crew ranks with the most amazing of naval history. Between August 1943 when she was commissioned and her loss in fall 1944, Tang completed four missions and was on her fifth in the Formosa Strait, single-handedly demolishing a convey. During this time, Tang had one captain: Commander Richard Hetherington O'Kane. Together, Tang, her crew of 86 men, and her captain sank more tonnage and more enemy ships than any other submarine on active patrol.

The career of the USS Wahoo in sinking Japanese ships in the farthest reaches of the Empire is legendary in submarine circles. Christened three months after Pearl Harbor, Wahoo was commanded by the astonishing Dudley W. "Mush" Morton, whose originality and daring new techniques led to results unprecedented in naval history; among them, successful "down the throat" barrage against an attacking Japanese destroyer, voracious surface-running gun attacks, and the sinking of a four-ship convoy in one day.

One war may have ended, but another one has already begun, against an enemy that is bigger, smarter, and more vicious: The Soviet Union.

Aging and outdated, most of the ships plummeted back to Earth long ago. The only thing keeping the two surviving lifeboats in the sky are Hell Divers - men and women who risk their lives by skydiving to the surface to scavenge for parts the ships desperately need.

Resumen del Editor
Now you can download the entire Crash Dive Series - here!
Crash Dive: The Complete Series chronicles the adventures of Charlie Harrison as he fights the Imperial Japanese Navy during WW2. Gripping, action-packed, authentic, and filled with larger-than-life men and women of the Greatest Generation, Crash Dive puts you aboard a submarine during the war.
You'll stand alongside Charlie as he proves himself time and again by keeping his wits and being decisive in crisis, though each encounter leaves him more heavily scarred for it. You'll attack a convoy in a daring night surface attack, emerge in a sea fog to ambush a battle group, and charge the battleship Yamato during the decisive Battle of Leyte Gulf. All the while, you'll live with the crew in the cramped, noisy, and challenging machine that was a diesel-electric submarine.
Crash Dive: The Complete Series puts together for the first time all six episodes in Craig DiLouie's highly acclaimed historical military fiction series: Crash Dive, Silent Running, Battle Stations, Contact!, Hara-Kiri, and Over the Hill.

When the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, the US Navy had a total of 111 submarines. It was mostly a collection of aging boats. Fortunately, with the war in Europe was already two years old and friction with Japan ever increasing, help from what would become known as the Silent Service in the Pacific was on the way: there were 73 of the new fleet submarines under construction. The Silent Service in World War II tells the story of America's intrepid underwater warriors in the words of the men who lived the war in the Pacific against Japan.

The USS Seawolf was one of the greatest submarine raiders of all time. Having narrowly avoided the attack on Pearl Harbor the Seawolf set out for the seas of the Pacific to wreak havoc on Japanese shipping. Joseph Melvin Eckberg was on the Seawolf from her maiden voyage and remained with her until January 1943. As chief radioman he was instrumental in assisting Captain Frederick Warder to find and destroy enemy targets. From the claustrophobia of being trapped under water and the overwhelming fear of depth charges to the joys of aiding the war-effort and the camaraderie on the ship.

Historia
The USS Seawolf was one of the greatest submarine raiders of all time. Having narrowly avoided the attack on Pearl Harbor the Seawolf set out for the seas of the Pacific to wreak havoc on Japanese shipping. Joseph Melvin Eckberg was on the Seawolf from her maiden voyage and remained with her until January 1943. As chief radioman he was instrumental in assisting Captain Frederick Warder to find and destroy enemy targets. From the claustrophobia of being trapped under water and the overwhelming fear of depth charges to the joys of aiding the war-effort and the camaraderie on the ship.

The unheralded story of how salvage helped the Allies win back North Africa. By the time America joined World War II, Edward Ellsberg had already earned his place as one of the world’s great marine salvage engineers, and his best-selling accounts of raising doomed submarines and histories of classic diving operations had made him a literary star.

In 1942, the island of Malta was the most heavily bombed place on earth. Its submarine and air attacks on Axis supply convoys were all that kept Rommel from marching across North Africa. But Malta was out of fuel. Operation Pedestal was Malta's last hope, a giant convoy with more that 50 warships escorting 13 freighters and one life-or-death oil tanker, the SS Ohio. It was bombed, torpedoed, and abandoned, but two American Merchant Mariners boarded the ship and repaired the guns.

Admittedly small and vulnerable, PT boats were, nevertheless, fast - the fastest craft on the water during World War II - and Dick Keresey's account of these tough little fighters throws new light on their contributions to the war effort. As captain of PT 105, the author was in the same battle as John F. Kennedy when Kennedy's PT 109 was rammed and sunk. The famous incident, Keresey says, has often been described inaccurately and the PT boat depicted as unreliable and ineffective.

The Japanese surprise attack on Pearl Harbor was a resounding success - except for one detail: A second bombing mission, to destroy crucial oil storage facilities, was aborted that day. Now, in this gripping and stunning work of alternate history, Robert Conroy reimagines December 7, 1941, to include the attack the Japanese didn't launch, and what follows is a thrilling tale of war, resistance, sacrifice, and courage. For when Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto sees how badly the United States has been ravaged in a two-pronged strike, he devises another, more daring proposal.

On July 30, 1945, the USS Indianapolis was torpedoed in the South Pacific by a Japanese submarine. An estimated 300 men were killed upon impact; close to 900 sailors were cast into the Pacific Ocean, where they remained undetected by the navy for nearly four days and nights. Battered by a savage sea, they struggled to stay alive, fighting off sharks, hypothermia, and dementia. By the time rescue arrived, all but 317 men had died. The captain's subsequent court-martial left many questions unanswered

Since his first and last posting was to U-505, Goebeler's perspective of the crew, commanders, and war patrols paints a vivid and complete portrait unlike any other to come out of the Kriegsmarine. He witnessed it all, from deadly sabotage efforts that almost sunk the boat to the tragic suicide of the only U-boat commander who took his life during World War II.

But then the mouth of the tunnel swallowed the 311 whole, and the train—and everyone on it—was never seen again. Seven years later, a gang of cattle thieves and cutthroats wait on horseback for a train car full of railway cash—a payroll they intend to steal. What they will discover, however, is that the approaching train isn’t the 5409. It’s the missing 311, a train only whispered about around dying campfires.

I'll Call This Genre Non Fiction Fiction.
Craig DiLouie did a masterful job in painting with words the amazing story of submarine service in the Pacific during WWII. My father was a Submariner from 1939 until 1945, a veteran of 10 combat patrols complete with Combat Patrol Pins and the accompanying card that was very handy as a "Get Out Of The Brig Free" card in both Perth and Pearl. Bar "discussions" were common between sailors and marines, and the shore patrol gave submariners with this card in their pocket every courtesy after breaking up the fight. Dad left us in 2001, and my brothers and I have been so fortunate to have much of his legacy preserved in books, magazine stories and on the web. From "Sugar" boats to fleet boats, DiLouie nailed sub history in the Pacific, and by doing so brought memories of my father closer than since before he passed away. I am mentioning all this not to boast on a member of Brokaw's Greatest Generation, rather to encourage my fellow Audible listeners to take a chance, and immerse yourself into the hot, malodorous world of the World War II Submarine Service. So "Splice the mainbrace" and hang on for a tale for the ages!

A Submarine Veteran's Review
As a submarine veteran, I thoroughly enjoyed this series. Each book in the series progresses to complete a story that feels like the Band of Brothers of WWII submarine warfare. The story chronicles the military service of Charlie Harrison. As Charlie's story progresses, one obtains a sense of the author's appreciation for actual submarine heroes of WWII. Much of what happens to Charlie parallels the exploits of real submarine captains like Richard O'Kane and Mush Morton. I appreciated these apparent parallels because I got a sense of the research conducted by the author. Some minor nuances to submarine life are slightly off, but most of the details were very accurate. Well done, Craig DiLouie!
Narration: R.C. Bray always knocks it out of the park when it comes to narrating. This performance of Crash Dive is no exception. There are some light sound effects in the series. They are complimentary enough to enhance the story, not distract. The author did well to pull Bray away from Sci-fi long enough to add his Silent Service performance to Crash Dive.
Overall: This is one of my favorite fiction series in my library. I highly recommend this to anyone interested in submarine warfare or WWII naval fiction accounts. Bravo Zulu!

Entertaining, but historically annoying.
The overall story are great, as his technical detail; however, as a history buff, I find the author’s rewriting of history disappointing.
1. He has Charlie sink the lone”surviving” carrier of The battle of Midway which would have fundamental changed the nature of that battle.
2. He has both the Yamato and The Musashi at the battle of Samar when the Musashi had been sunk the day before (and it’s presence added nothing to the story). Also by having a submarine attack drive of the Yamato and end the battle he takes away the credit from the American destroyers whose torpedos that actually did drive off that monster.
3. Having his submarine repeatedly take on and sink multiple destroyers is a little over top.
Also having Charlie can repeatedly take over command of the boat when the captain became incapacitated seemed redundant.
Definitely no Run Silent Run Deep.

Worth it undoubtedly
My first WW2/real history (ish) book coming from mostly space themed sci-fi and I loved it. Performance amazing as always from R.C. Bray.

Brace for Impact!
This is the best audio book I have ever listened to. A true epic. The characters were outstanding. The story was mesmerizing. The narrator was perfect! Lots of action, drama and thoughtful retrospect. This series will not disappoint. I am so glad I gave it a try.

Excellent WW 2 drama
Do your self a favor and get this series. You don’t have to read them one after another. Take a break between them, then return and marvel in the story of submariner Charlie Harrison.
Well done!!

Inspiring
The book is inspiring as it explores the many facets of war and the people who tried to cope with it. Beautiful, exciting, and thought provoking.
