There has been lots of media lead up to the movie being released and the novelization did not disappoint. Filled with action, this book gives a very real insight into how the SEALS operate while in "frogman" mode and when not deployed. It was very interesting to know that they train exactly as if it were a real mission, down to the use of live fire.
The sense of brotherhood between Roarke and Nolan was keenly felt. The "band of brothers" theme flowed throughout the book. Tension settled in while reading the mission sequences and the action read as realistic.
I especially liked how each operator on the team was described through the thoughts of Nolan. You truely felt the sense of respect these selfless men hold for one another.
