Final Option: 'The best one yet' (The Oregon Files)

I don't know how a previous reviewer could say he felt the plot was used before , and he read it before, with just a new twist. Couldn't disagree more! Well done...a page turner...and original plot of Oregon's crews' greatest adventure and apparent insurmountable challenge ever faced!

I HAVE READ ALL OF THE OREGON FILES BOOKS AND THEY ARE GREAT.

The final option was very interesting. It included several new items as well as some historical. The ending was somewhat sad as the Oregon, well I don’t want to give it away. Very enjoyable reading.

Excellent.read as usual! Definitely a cliff hanger! What is next and how soon? Keep up the awesome writing and entertainment! AWESOME!!!

Juan Cabrillo and his intrepid crew of the Oregon (decrepit tramp steamer on the outside, super hi-tech and luxurious spy ship on the inside) face their most dangerous opponent yet, that being an unwelcome blast from the past, i.e. a former partner from Juan’s CIA days, thought to have been long dead, who has resurfaced, and who has not only (1) resurrected a devilishly powerful long-forgotten WWI-era mind control device, but (2) indeed built a carbon copy of the Oregon and is using it to frame Juan’s crew for the sinkings of several vessels (including a U.S. Navy nuclear submarine) and even the abduction of Cabrillo’s own boss!Harrowing and engaging, and keeps the pages turning.RANDOM STREAM OF CONSCIOUSNESS NOTES AND OBSERVATIONS:—p. 1: Um, were German submarines in either World War ever actually assigned names as opposed to mere alphanumeric designators (like U-20, U-505, etc.)?“Irre Waffe” = Insanity Weapon—p. 9: South African–made Vektor R5 assault rifles!“In fact, they were destined for Nicaraguan rebels who were going to use them in fighting the corrupt socialist government that was allowing the drug cartels to run wild.” Down with Daniel Ortega!—p. 23: “He was looking forward to a generous cut of Brazil’s best prime rib and a bottle of well-aged cabernet sauvignon at a cigar bar and jazz club later that evening.” Aahh, Juan Cabrillo, Bon Vivant!—p. 38: “and a baggy T-shirt that had the name of one of his favorite heavy metal bands, Nuclear Lobotomy, who, according to the bloody lettering on the shirt, toured with another band called Hate Gorgon.” Haha, creative.—p. 66: “Raven used to be an Army Military Police investigator, and nothing escaped her observation.” In other words, Army Criminal Investigative Division (CID)?—p. 68: ““Tangerine liqueur from Madagascar,” nice one.—p. 203: filet mignon with béarnaise sauce, 007 would approve!—p. 262: Er, wouldn’t Chinese sailors be using “kilometres” instead of “miles?”—p. 266: “Then he realized that the movie playing was The Princess Bride. But in this case, all of the major male characters’ faces had been replaced with the face of Shrek. Although it was strange to hear the green ogre say, ‘Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya,’ the effect was seamless.” Haha.
