Negative Positive
Title: Read something else
Review: USS SEAWOLF intends to be an exciting novel about submarine warfare. All it achieves, though, is to put some stupid, lame Chinese ( who talk and act like the Americans, but are only 5 ft tall and wear thick, horn-rimmed glasses - so much for cultural empathy) against swearing, brave Americans. Don't read this book if you don't consider the frequent use of "heh heh heh" and "whaddyamean" to be literature. Don't read this book if you don't feel like saluting when Robinson declares that the underlying stratum of goodness in Reagan's foreign policy renders all disobedience of the law irrelevant. Don't read this book if you don't like grotesque attempts at tragedy (We're gonna get your son back out, Mr. President, I promise!). But, most of all, don't read this book if you don't find the subtle, fascistoid morality (Let's sink the Chinese pricks so they can't do whatever they please... after all, they're CHINESE!) funny.Actually, don't read this book, full stop.
Is the review positive or negative?
