I am a keen reader of military fiction books and have in the past enjoyed books focusing on anything to do with the navy (not nes RN) but not read a lot of late as been too much on. Want to get back into the escapisism (prob not spelt that right!) of reading, can anyone recomend a good book with a focus on naval adventure...pref with a quite modern theme.


Thanks

Try Douglas Reeman. He also writes under the name of Alexander Kent. As Kent he did the 'Bolitho' series of books based in late18th/early 19th century. As Reeman he has published about 20 (or more) books based in the 20th century,including both wars (at least one featuring the German Navy of WW1).The books I have were published between 1959 and 1988, so you will probably be looking for reprints; or try car boot sales.
