      Totally agree. And he should have stuck to techno thrillers and not tried to write personal emotions of his characters.​@@michaelcortright5525

    The book outclasses the film any day. Well read. Far more realistic than the film. As is the usual case when a book is made into a film. Superbly read .

      his voice is so perfect for anything 80s Cold War related! He can declare great over the top liners "bring a good supply of body bags...eat stuff that would make a billy goat puke!". And here he is doing a classic tom clancy novel, charmingly using a russian accent as needed. RIP to Col. Crenna

    Sure miss Richard Crenna - from his days on the _Our Miss Brooks_ radio show as the acne-laden pubescent Walter Denton to the husband in _The Real McCoys_, Col Trautman, Rambo's commanding officer, and the captain of the San Pablo in _The Sand Pebbles_, he was one one of the best of the journeymen actors who turned in a good performance every time!

      @@greatbooksontape782 I watched film first and I got curious about the book knowing how they tend to differ when I came a cross Richard's abridged version, loved it, got the paperback finally got Audible apps and got the unabridged version. I've done the same Day of the Jackel and ice Station Zebra. I read the Zebra paperback so many time it finally fell to pieces luckily I have it in hardback but I'm visually impaired now so I use Audible and kindle!, I can adjust the font with kindle which is great.

      This was the first technical, tactical, political, and espionage novel converted to film that I saw as a kid! My brother and I listened to the audiobook, and also the Bear and the Dragon, while homeschooling! Hearing it again after 22 years, is like a trip down memory lane.

    Read the book several times back in the 80's. Pretty good story. Well written. A few obvious errors, like "Jonesy" smoking cigarettes at his sonar station.Nobody smokes on a nuclear sub, not even back in the 80's.

      That's weird. One my roommates back in the early 90s operated a towed sonar array on a sub, he said the exact opposite, that everyone on board smoked like chimneys but the air filtration sucked it up immediately.
