Reviewer: Julian R. Garrett
A bit disappointed.
I'm dissapointed. For something that was billed to be in the same vein as Frederick Forsyth's First of God, it really isn't. The character development is pretty shallow, the plot is wildly heroic, and it just felt disjointed. That said, the story of the Zumwalt was both engaging and fun to read - easily the best part of the novel. The authors just about turned it into a good novel there, but the other parts of the story, very heavily techno-centric, just kindof fell short when it counted.
I could recommend this book as a weekend read, the people promoting it to me were military analysts so my interest was piqued immediately, but they were just all about the tech and zero about the story. I wanted a good story and this had lots of holes sorry to say.

Plausible and Well Written.
I normally don't like the political intrigue type of books, but this one doesn't get into that drama too much. Not overly detailed with love triangles and subterfuge. Fairly straight forward and plausible on how WWIII could start. Good prose from the author. Details are pulled from real technology. Few liberties are taken and that helps this book be great. The author did his/her work when writing this one. If you like war stories, this is a good one.
Reviewer: Mark T. Patterson II
Clanceyesque.
This novel is meant to showcase the technological edge of our supposed adversaries in the Western Pacific and the flaws in our own reliance on them for our own war fighting capability. It does a good job at that, and the outcome is never certain, yet I had to call it predictable with some twists.
Certainly the qualities of Americans rising to the occasion again like we did in World War II were hard to believe.The authors do reflect some of this, but the love stories are just inserted to have some touch with reality.
As a novel it is full of holes even in the foreign relations realm as well, lots of unlikely events to, again, show what the weaknesses are in our defese structure, and presumably the strengths of our would be adversaries are.
Reviewer: P. Weiser
Secret Weapons.
This is a story of secret weapons, set in the near future. Characterization was not as deep as it might have been, but satisfactory for purpose. Some themes (what does success at guerilla warfare/terrorism do to its survivors?) are particularly well developed; others are adequate. The villains are a bit two-dimensional, though explanations are provided. On the whole, it was a satisfactory read stepping back almost to the present from sci-fi.
Reviewer: J. Davis
In the style of Tom Clancy.
An excellent read very much in the style of Tom Clancy. Realistic technology and geo-political considerations make the book believable. Rather than use lengthy exposition the authors show us the near future in bits and pieces through the eyes of the characters. My only complaint is that the conclusion to the book felt rather rushed and in some ways a bit of a let down compared to the excellent lead-up throughout the first half of the book. Still very much worth reading.
Reviewer: Frank Silvia
Large cast of characters almost world wide take notes for short incidents so you can return later on in the book. It does profile a future possible in many ways. The opening as a repeat attack on Hawaii is a little risky as a startup into war.The many plots are confusing, and they add some confusion with very little relating or contributing to the overall story. This book hints at the possible Electromagnetic pulse theory cooking everything electronic except for 1950s or less autos, Far fetched and yes possible.
Reviewer: Dave
An entertaining read.
A good story and easy to read. I have been a fan of Tom Clancy's early books (Hunt for Red October, Red Storm Rising, etc.) and this book is similar to his type of books. However, it isn't as good as Clancy's writing. Overall still an entertaining read with some good insights on what the next war between major military powers would be like.
Reviewer: Amazon Customer
A remarkable book, could not put it down.
A compelling story, characters with real deep (not card board 'check box' diversity ones), based deeply on current reality and trends. Summary, plot is a near future re-run of the battle for the supremacy in the Pacific (and by extension, the World...) between the US and China. A close run thing, with a unstable return to the "status quo ex ante". Truly could not put it down.
Reviewer: Daniel W. Boren
Good book overall, read it, you'll enjoy it!
This is an intriguing look at what could lie ahead for your country and our world but some of it was just too far out there. In contrast they show simple defeats of automated devices that are ridiculous as they aren't effective now, much less in the future. I really did not like the fact that the authors had the USA using suicide bombers against the Chinese, I don't think it would happen and I find it disgusting that someone would suggest it.
The book moves along at a nice pace with some unexpected twists and others you see coming, but it is very entertaining. The biggest gripe I have with this book is the ending. I felt like they got tired of writing and just stopped. It doesn't seem like it is a finished story, just a pause. But it really is over, go figure.
Reviewer: Mike Montemalo
Overall a good book.
It took me about 100 pages to get into it. I started to enjoy it when the war started. I am not a technical person, and they had a lot of technical jargon. However, I do love a lot of action and that came in spades during the second half of the book. I was a little confused when they jumped from the war starting to a few months later. Either I missed where it was written or I was expected to just realize the story leaped forward. Overall a good read. Thank you.
Reviewer: Fernando Izaguirre
I for the most part enjoyed reading this book.
I for the most part enjoyed reading this book ( well, I just listened to it on audible). It had the premise of a great book, but the author didn't take it to its max, it was mainly steady. If it hadn't been for it been in audible I would have stopped in the first 50 pages. The author could have improved it by putting more action and more of an ending. The ending was the just a few pages. The author could have added more revenge instead of returning to the status quo.
Reviewer: Chris R.
Idea great, execution poor.
I love the ideas of this book. But the execution is so poor and there is very little other than surface to this book. Zero logic to characters, merely an excuse to dress up the ideas as fiction instead of critical analysis.
Reviewer: W. Simon
Not bad. Not great.
I read the book after learning it was on the Strategic Command's reading list--and probably for good reason as future warfare may well look something like what the authors describe. As the title suggests, the book is heavy on the naval aspects as well as a lot of cyber components. It does a great job showing how reliant on technology we may become--while also never discounting the very human elements that conflict will always entail. I would, however, like to have seen more development of what land-based operations in the future may look like. The book also just wasn't that great of a narrative. I found it a bit predictable and the character development was terrible. It's an interesting read for security-minded folks but hardly a great book and definitely not in the purported Tom Clancy-esque vein.
Reviewer: Bugs B
Great plot- needed more development
This had great potential but fell a bit short. The plot was well thought out but many of the threads were not run to completion. At first I thought this would be something like one of Tom Clancys war books but so many of the threads were just dropped that I was a bit sad. I wanted to know hat happened to characters or battles or ships but it was never answered. He should have developed it more. I think the plot of technology failure has resonated with the military and some of them are a bit worried. I give them credit for helping fuel that doubt.
Reviewer: shannon
Okayest book.
I like the idea and title. Yet, this book’s storyline has been underperformed...I felt like this book focus too much on the quantity of characters. Instead of a focus on the quality of the storyline with fewer characters. Let it carry out by series of books than get it done by one book-ish.

Rollicking and informative read.
Enjoyable and a real page turner, Ghost Fleet is more informative than most military action type novels and maintains a high adrenaline well placed feel for the duration.
The idea of taking exisiting military technologies or projects and hypothesising how they might turn out in the near future is both fascinating and well researched in this novel.
You will likely find yourself wanting to discuss some of the new tech with your friends (lucky them) and some of the chapters read more like articles New Scientist. Don't be surprise if you find yourself taking to google to find out more. The book does contain hyperlinks to be used for reference, but these do not work well on the kindle and are used more like academic footnotes to give a sense of credibility to the content rather than to inform the reader as you go.
As well as the military tech discussed, the book contains some surprisingly well researched geopolitical discussion which makes the book feel more authentic.
Head and shoulders above many other books of its type, my only criticism is the book occasionally falls into hyperbolic American nationalism - but that shouldn't be a surprise and it is nice to see that the most cliche American character is, refreshingly, a female.
The book could be enjoyed by readers of any age-and makes a great holiday read. It is well planned and well executed.
Reviewer: Stuart Berman
Highly recommended for those who like Daniel Suarez novels.
A quick and fun read with technically accurate and important details. Anyone who enjoys Daniel Suarez novels would enjoy this novel. I highly suggest this book for technologists and those interested in how technology serves the military and critical functions such as business and government services and anyone who enjoys this genre. My rating is reflects a generally good story and very accurate sense of technology and reflects some of the occasionally awkward stylistic presentation (I am still trying to figure out how the deep sea diving story was relevant to the story.) I hope SInger and Cole continue to write novels like this and refine their style.
Reviewer: Mark W. Walton
Fantastic!
This is a very well done future war book. Lots of action in space, the air, on land and at sea, but particularly in cyberspace. The author has populated his novel with truly interesting characters that are much more engaging than the standard steely eyed heroes.
This will be one of the better sci fi military reads that you could hope to find.
