Historia
Santaroga seemed to be nothing more than a prosperous farm community. But there was something...different...about Santaroga. Santaroga had no juvenile delinquency, or any crime at all. Outsiders found no house for sale or rent in this valley, and no one ever moved out. No one bought cigarettes in Santaroga. No cheese, wine, beer, or produce from outside the valley could be sold there. The list went on and on and grew stranger and stranger....

Public Law 10927 was clear and direct. Parents were permitted to watch the genetic alterations of their gametes by skilled surgeons...only no one ever requested it. When Lizbeth and Harvey Durant decided to invoke the Law, when Dr. Potter did not rearrange the most unusual genetic structure of their future son, barely an embryo growing in the State's special vat---the consequences of these decisions threatened to be catastrophic.

In the far future, humankind has made contact with numerous other species - and has helped to form the ConSentiency to govern between the species. After suffering under a tyrannous pure democracy that had the power to create laws so fast that no thought could be given to the effects, the sentients of the galaxy found a need for the Bureau of Sabotage (BuSab) to slow the wheels of government, thereby preventing it from legislating recklessly.

The emergency skeleton crew sees only one chance for survival: build an artificial consciousness in the Earthling's primary computer that can guide them to their destination—and hope it doesn't destroy the human race.

After the fall of the American Ayatollahs as foretold in Stranger in a Strange Land and chronicled in Revolt in 2100, the United States of America at last fulfills the promise inherent in its first Revolution: for the first time in human history there is a nation with Liberty and Justice for All. No one may seize or harm the person or property of another, or invade his privacy, or force him to do his bidding. Americans are fiercely proud of their re-won liberties and the blood it cost them; nothing could make them forswear those truths they hold self-evident. Nothing except the promise of immortality…

When a beam of pink light begins giving a schizophrenic man named Horselover Fat (who just might also be known as Philip K.

It is three in the morning when Bobby Western plunges from the Coast Guard tender into darkness. His dive light illuminates the sunken jet, nine bodies still buckled in their seats, hair floating, eyes devoid of speculation. Missing from the site are the pilot’s bag, the plane’s black box, and the tenth passenger. A collateral witness to machinations that can only bring him harm, Western is shadowed in body and spirit—by men with badges; by the ghost of his father, inventor of the bomb that melted glass and flesh in Hiroshima; and by his sister, the love and ruin of his soul.

Even as he struggles to escape, David begins to feel a certain amount of respect for his captor. What the boy does not know, however, is that he has been chosen as an innocent from the white world for an ancient sacrifice of vengeance. And Katsuk may be divinely inspired - or simply insane.

Historia
In the far future, humankind has made contact with numerous other species - and has helped to form the ConSentiency to govern between the species. After suffering under a tyrannous pure democracy that had the power to create laws so fast that no thought could be given to the effects, the sentients of the galaxy found a need for the Bureau of Sabotage (BuSab) to slow the wheels of government, thereby preventing it from legislating recklessly.

Historia
Earth has become a library planet over the last several thousand years, a bastion of both useful and useless knowledge - esoterica of all types: History, science, politics - gathered by teams of "pack rats" who scour the galaxy for any scrap of information. Knowledge is power, knowledge is wealth, and knowledge can be a weapon. As powerful dictators come and go over the course of history, the cadre of dedicated librarians is sworn to obey the lawful government - and use their wits to protect the treasure trove of knowledge they have collected over the millennia.

Historia
Santaroga seemed to be nothing more than a prosperous farm community. But there was something...different...about Santaroga. Santaroga had no juvenile delinquency, or any crime at all. Outsiders found no house for sale or rent in this valley, and no one ever moved out. No one bought cigarettes in Santaroga. No cheese, wine, beer, or produce from outside the valley could be sold there. The list went on and on and grew stranger and stranger....

The starship Earthling, filled with thousands of hibernating colonists en route to a new world at Tau Ceti, is stranded beyond the solar system when the ship's three organic mental cores—disembodied human brains that control the vessel's functions—go insane. The emergency skeleton crew sees only one chance for survival: build an artificial consciousness in the Earthling's primary computer that can guide them to their destination—and hope it doesn't destroy the human race.

Historia
Katsuk, a militant Native American student, has kidnapped 13-year-old David Marshall - the son of the US undersecretary of state. He and his young hostage flee into the deepest wilds of the Pacific Northwest, where they must work together to survive as teams of hunters try to track them. Even as he struggles to escape, David begins to feel a certain amount of respect for his captor. What the boy does not know, however, is that he has been chosen as an innocent from the white world for an ancient sacrifice of vengeance. And Katsuk may be divinely inspired - or simply insane.

Using deadly foamal bombs and newly developed vibration weapons, men like Joao Martinho and his coworkers fought to clear the green hell of the Mato Grosso. But somehow those areas that had been completely cleared were becoming reinfested, despite the impenetrable vibration barriers. And tales were coming out of the jungles - tales of insects mutated to incredible sizes, of creatures who seemed to be men but whose eyes gleamed with the chitinous sheen of insects....

HERBERT STILL LEARNING HIS STYLE SF OF THE FIFTIES
Is there anything you would change about this book?
I TRIED TO READ THIS BOOK IN THE MID SIXTIES, BUT NEVER SEEM TO CATCH,
THE INTERACTION GROWS TEDIOUS AND SEEMS SOMEWHAT MURKY EVEN WHEN THERE ARE ONLY FOUR CHARACTERS AT PLAY.
What do you think your next listen will be?
C W C OMAN ACCOUNT OF THE MIDDLE AGES
What does Scott Brick bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
CLEAR AND GOOD DICTION, HARD FOR THE NARRATOR TO MAKE THE STORY MORE LIVELY
If this book were a movie would you go see it?
NO
Any additional comments?
EVEN THE IMMORTAL JANE AUSTEN HAD A FEW BAD PARAGRAPHS.

Decent story
Decent story but drags a little as 95% of the story takes place in the submarine. Scott Brick's narration is good.

Undersea military scenario
Frank Herbert’s The Dragon in the Sea mostly takes place on a submarine at some point in the near future where available oil supplies are limited to underwater wells and the world’s superpower vie for control of the seabed. A four-man crew is being sent to a site where multiple previous subs have never returned. There is suspicion of a mole, so an electronic guru / psychologist is embedded in the crew. There are many harrowing situations with enemy encounters as well as sabotage throughout.
Herbert offers an interesting futuristic scenario of dwindling oil supplies resulting in undersea extrac-tion with submarines hauling huge reservoirs of pumped crude at secret sites. The electronics and other high-tech gadgetry are quite creative for the 1950’s. While not explicit, a ‘cold war’ mentality is evident throughout.
The narration is excellent with solid character distinction. Pacing is smooth and brisk.

Meh
This story would have been so much better without for the constant nonsensical psychological garbage Herbert spewed onto the pages. It was a struggle to finish, and in the end, wasn't worth the 7-1/2 hours spent.

Deep Six Sleeper
If it weren't for the pefect voice of Scott Brick, this story would put you to sleep. The technology is way out of date and the story sort of drags you through stuff already hashed out and improved on by Tom Clancy and other Submarine warfare writers. You have to look at tomorrow's world through yesderday's eyes. I'm pretty good at doing such things with most of Herbert's work, but this one is sort of too "old hat" to really get into.

Not anywhere near Dune
Any additional comments?
This book was pretty standard sic-Fi from this time period. Which falls far below the high mark set by Dune.
