About this listen

Award Finalist American Fiction Awards & Award Finalist Best Thrillers Awards

Sea of Red is an action-packed Military Thriller involving a war between China and the U.S. in their fight over Taiwan.

With Chinese hypersonic cruise missiles thundering toward the aircraft carrier USS Reagan, the captain has only minutes to decide how to save his crew of 5,000 before they all end up at the bottom of the South China Sea.

As the battle rages, under the sea, U.S. fast attack submarines silently maneuver against the PLA Navy while jet fighters battle for air superiority. On the ground, Marines fight for control of Chinese-held Woody Island. A Taiwanese tank squadron confronts a superior attacking force on Kinmen Island in a courageous attempt to halt Chinese forces.

In the White House, the president strategizes with his National Security Council on overcoming China's advantage in ballistic missiles and ships. His counterpart, the president of China, develops a daring plan to destroy America's fleet of aircraft carriers.

Sea of Red is a must-read, powerful new Techno-Thriller with warriors you won't soon forget.

Very good story, AI narration poor

I enjoyed this story very much. It was reminiscent of Red Storm Rising, which is high praise indeed. However, the AI narration, while easy to listen to, missed out on quite a bit of opportunities when some emotion would be useful. Also, the AI narrator failed to recognize that an acronym such as PLAAF (PLA Air Force) is not pronounced "PLAAF". There were quite a few errors of this type scattered throughout the book, especially as the author included many abbreviations when describing the military technologies of the US, Taiwan, and China. These made the performance rather irritating.

Not a fan of the AI narration

The story was good, but the AI generated narration was monotonous and failed to convey any semblance of human emotion. There were also numerous errors in pronunciation and the voice was garbled at times.
