review 1: "The Ghosts of Bungo Suido" was an interesting read. At times it was compelling (the submarine sections were absolutely riveting!), at times it was confusing, and at times it was quite boring. The writing was quite inconsistent and the plot covered too much ground too quickly for taut storytelling. The research appeared to be solid. The main characters were interesting but their backstory needed fleshing out. I liked the book and I would consider reading more by this author. I plan to recommend this book to my son. Quite a bit of profanity and graphic violence.
review 2: Engaging - Captivating - Intense. A masterfully written WWII dramatic novel, where the greatest wars waged are often within ourselves, in many shades of gray. Superbly developed storyline, well
... more-developed characters of substance, efficient flow of dialog and narrative. Additionally, settings and technical descriptives are so clearly communicated, a reader with little to no prior Navy or submarine knowledge will have no trouble enjoying this masterfully written novel. A highly recommended, excellent read. less
