Maelstrom

Fans of Taylor Anderson’s Destroyermen alternate history/alternate Earth trilogy set in 1942, the wait is over – Maelstrom is here! It is a satisfying, page-turning read that sees the final triumph of Lieutenant Commander (though he’s also referred to as Captain) Matthew Reddy and his crew, who manned the destroyer the USS Walker, and their Lemurian allies, over the ruthless feathered reptilian race known as the Griks. It’s the conclusion of the trilogy, but the Griks live on, albeit with greatly reduced forces, down to only 70 wooden ships.
