Cold Choices

Jerry Mitchell, Book 2

De: Larry Bond

Narrado por: Dick Hill

Navy pilot turned submarine officer Jerry Mitchell is now the navigator aboard USS Seawolf. On a reconnaissance mission deep in the Barents Sea, Mitchell and his crew prepare to watch the Russian navy as it trains for battle. Although they are outside Russia's territorial waters, the U.S. boat is ambushed by Russia's newest attack submarine, Severodvinsk. Its aggressive new captain, Aleksey Petrov, harasses the American intruder with dangerously fast, insanely close passes.

The subs collide, and the Russian ship sinks to the bottom, crippled. Only Seawolf knows where Severodvinsk is, but the Russian authorities are too angry to listen to the Americans, even in matters of life and death.

Mitchell and his shipmates must keep their own damaged vessel afloat, figure out a way to make the Russians listen, and keep the trapped submariners alive until they can be saved - if that is even possible.

Larry Bond uses his experience as an intelligence officer, warfare analyst, and antisubmarine technology specialist to give readers an expertly crafted techno-thriller. Like Run Silent, Run Deep and The Hunt for Red October, Cold Choices takes readers deep into the minds of submariners and the treacherous world in which they dwell.

Great Modern Navy book

When and American nuclear submarine and Russian nuclear submarine collide under the Bering Sea, the survival and rescue operations are tense and riveting

Best Bond yet!

Story was relentless in its pace, kept me completely enthralled and wanting to see how it all came out. Definitely one of my favorites in this genre.

I liked it!

I was wishing i hadn't already read Hunt for Red October several times because i was in a mood to hear it again, and then i found this book. It was just what i was looking for. There was good character development, and enough technology, politics and navy protocols to keep things interesting. I drive truck for a living and it kept me going and alert for several days of driving. I thought it was a good solid well written book and was sad for it to end.

Story and readee

Liked rhe reader and rhe fact that the author used the names of lost submariners for characters

Great Great Novel !

The first time I read this book (or listened on Audible) I may have been unkind. I wasn't feeling well that day and I don't remember what I said. This is by FAR the best submarine novel I have ever read/heard. I t beats "The Hunt for Red October " which is a great read. I would or I wish this to become a Big Screen movie ! I believe that it would play for quite a while !

Great Book

This one definitely keeps your attention. I only wish our nation's could work together like they do in this book.

Great story,great narrator.

The combination of Larry Bond and Dick Hill is addictive.A story with great details on human and technical level. Really enjoyed it!

Exceptional Book

Larry Bond is the hands down master of military / political books. this book is the second of Jerry Mitchell series. One would think the book Dangerous Ground could matched. Larry Bond did it.

Dick Hill is the perfect narrator for this series. the combination of story and narration is an enjoyable experience.

great story

what a great story. it was written very well and the narrating was very very good.

Great Sub v Sub story and more

Everything you need from a sub v sub story with great additional elements. Add the narration skills of Dick Hill and you have a winner.
