This book blurb has been made possible through the Booksneeze.com from which I received a complimentary copy of the book.

Fire of the Raging Dragon (Pacific Rim Series) by Don Brown takes a bit of wading through. This is because Mr Brown adds great detail to his story line, including maps, military technical terms, and little known historical facts. While some may find this distracting and taking away from the action, as a reader who enjoys history, I don't mind this style.

When reading this book, it took me to the possibility the US stands with China and time that passes and with it, political tensions that rise. While the UN is currently in place to keep such things from happening, Mr Brown reaches into the, "It could take place" potential, and that is intriguing to me.

This was a book the kept me engaged, though at times I was a bit lost with some of the jargon. Overall, I give it a 4 out of 5 rating.

Per the Book Sneeze site:
In Fire of the Raging Dragon---the second book in bestselling author Don Brown’s Pacific Rim Series---Stephanie Surber is stationed on board a submarine tender in the South China Sea when a naval war breaks out. After a gruesome discovery escalates America’s involvement, Stephanie’s father, U.S. President Douglas Surber, must choose to take a stand against evil … or save the life of his daughter.
