About the Book

Dan Lenson assumes command of USS Horn, the first United States Navy warship operated by a fully integrated male and female crew - a circumstance that brings challenges about morale, behaviour, training, and performance under fire. The Horn is deployed to the Persian Gulf and as Lenson struggles with his inexperienced crew, a team of brazenly macho SEALS joins the ship to conduct search-and-seize operations against foreign vessels attempting to smuggle arms to Iraq. But Lenson's real nightmare is brewing in Bahrain, where an American-educated Saudi terrorist is planning an explosive attack on the ship and everything it represents.

About the Author :
Captain David Poyer's twenty-four novels make him possibly the most popular living author of American sea fiction. His naval career included service in the Atlantic, Mediterranean, Arctic, Caribbean, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and Pacific. "The Command "is the eighth book in his continuing novel-cycle of the modern Navy, following "The Med, ""The Gulf," "The Circle," "The Passage," "Tomahawk," "China Sea," and "Black Storm." He lives with his wife, novelist Lenore Hart, and their daughter on Virginia's Eastern Shore.

Review :
"[An] explosive climax...the reader takes a well-informed cruise on a U.S. destroyer. Poyer knows the ship intimately. Vivid descriptions cover everything from knee knockers to combat information center, radar to computers, wardroom to enlisted quarters. Battle scenes in particular come alive with authenticity...and all that, and more, is in this latest chapter of Commander Daniel Lenson's contentious career."-Proceedings "Poyer packs story with both dense technical info and welcome local color. Unique Aisha merits a spinoff series."-Kirkus Reviews ""Plows fearlessly-though with hair-raising effect on occasion-through today's stormy international and social seas...the salvos of nautical expertise also lend flavor and authenticity...the author provides believable insights into Muslim thinking...Poyer's genius for description impresses on page after page. The vividness of his scene-setting grabs you." -Virginian-Pilot "Lovers of procedural military fiction wait for David Poyer's next installment of the career of Dan Lenson."-Roanoke Times
