Someone recommended the book, I bought it. Not cheap... Just FYI, didn't like it much...(just my opinion, not meant as an attack to the poster who recommended it, literary tastes are very personal ;-)
It's weird: it's written about a recent subject matter (modern ship warfare, apocalypse) but in a literary style that is very 19th century, too verbose and sophisticated with philosophical digressions galore. Not that I am against "culture" or sophisticated writing, but it's a writing style you'd expect for a philosophy treaty or Moby Dick, when the subject matter is more "Tom Clancy". Made for annoying reading for the most part. I like the TV show better, although the book goes into some interesting problems and clearly lots of thought went into it ;-)
