Recovering from his Operation Arctic Sting injuries, USS Teuthis Executive Officer Mac McDowell is tasked with laying SOSUS arrays in the southern Atlantic and off Thurston Island, Western Antarctica. Teuthis tangles with Argentine subs in the south Atlantic, then confronts a ChiCom sub off Thurston Island. Mac and his team experience serious setbacks at the hands of the ChiComs while installing a relay transmitter on a nearby mountain peak. Teuthis discovers an underwater oil operation off Thurston Island and is tasked with escorting a Taiwanese sub and underwater tanker under the cover of the largest military marine exercise since World War II: PacEx89. Teuthis is attacked by a Chinese Han-class sub and a previously unknown North Korean AIP sub despite the protection provided by three U.S. fast-attack subs. Will Mac and Teuthis complete their mission, or will they finally meet their watery graves on the Pacific Ocean abyssal plain?

The sky is not falling-the global greenhouse in not out of control, the ozone layer is still there, and the Cold War is over Finally, a book that contradicts the Chicken Little mentality by arguing that most of these concerns are scare tactics used to persuade the ordinary citizen.Robert G. Williscroft firmly establishes that the sky is not falling. By using scientific research and solid reasoning, he explains some of the most disturbing problems facing our nation including global warming, the safety of nuclear power, the politics of education, and the oxymoron of government efficiency. With a clear message, he discerns what is true from what is merely Chicken Little gibberish.The Chicken Little Agenda: Debunking "Experts'" Lies examines the overriding issues of today's gloomy view, providing detailed insight into what is really happening in the world. By utilizing documented scientific evidence including recent startling discoveries about the so-called "greenhouse effect," Robert G. Williscroft presents alternative views to those of the doomsayers. Dr. Williscroft effectively: Exposes the Green Revolution to reveal the hidden agenda that empowers environmental extremistsReveals serious misconceptions about Three Mile Island and Chernobyl and provides a strong case for the use of nuclear energyGives insight into the role of terrorism and recounts the scare tactics used to invoke fearDetails government intrusions into the daily lives of ordinary citizens and demonstrates how to make the system work for you
As USS Teuthis Saturation Dive Team Officer-in-Charge (OIC) Mac McDowell leads his submarine team laying SOSUS arrays under the Arctic ice, they capture an abandoned fully automated Alfa-class Soviet sub. Piloting their prize through the ice pack to the U.S. East Coast, they must evade or confront other Soviet subs trying to recover the sub-or sink it. Breathtaking deep-sea clashes erupt, including hand-to-hand combat with Soviet Morskoy Spetsnaz divers under the ice. Too far from Teuthis to escape, the Americans are accosted by a 5-ton orca. Will Mac's ship survive long enough to reach friendly waters, or will the men become just another meal for a deadly whale?

USS Teuthis Saturation Dive Team Officer-in-Charge (OIC) Mac McDowell is leading his submarine team on a mission to lay SOSUS arrays under the ice in the Arctic when they clash with a new Alfa-class highly automated Soviet submarine. Overwhelmed by mechanical problems, the Soviet crew abandons their sub near Pt. Barrow, Alaska. The Teuthis skipper launches DSRV-1 Mystic, so Mac and his crew can board the empty sub and gather intelligence. The arrival of an even more advanced Soviet sub leads to breathtaking underwater clashes with the specter of war looming. Will the Soviets sink Mac and his crew to their watery graves, or will Teuthis safely return to Alaska where Mac's new love, Kate, anxiously awaits his return?
His head frozen at death, engineer and entrepreneur Braxton Thorpe awakens to existence inside an electronic matrix. Discovering the global Link System, he taps into databases and expands to become a Tensor Matrixwith access to virtually all human knowledge. He works with Daphne O'Bryan and other researchers, then is joined by an extraordinary non-human partner as he generalizes his existence from Banach Space into a Banach Manifold. Using complex tensors to extend beyond the matrix, he detects a malevolent presence in the Link system, an alien with bad intent. Braxton and Daphne must locate and reach out to this alien civilization, but what will they find, and will it be too late for mankind?

A U.S. senator--likely next president--has been seized by pirates and held for $100 million ransom. Derek "Tiger" Baily and his SEAL Winged Insertion Command (SWIC-3) get the call: a rescue operation with soldiers zooming in from the sky, the 6-man squad's first real combat operation. Hurtling around the world in the new Gryphon-10 MK 4 hardshell wingsuit, Tiger and his team must literally improvise on the fly with everything to lose. Go into battle with Tiger and the SWIC on a mission of life or death in Robert G. Williscroft's fourth installment following Daedalus, Daedalus LEO, and Daedalus Squad.
Derek "Tiger" Baily and his SEALS Winged Insertion Command (SWIC) drop from Low Earth Orbit to test the enhanced Gryphon-10 MK 4 hardshell wingsuit for combat applications. Every contingency has been planned. The 6-man squad believes it is fully prepared for hurtling around the world and staging critical re-entry, but challenged to innovate life-or-death solutions with only seconds to spare, Baily's team might not survive intact. Fly with Tiger and his SWIC team on a mission that surely will test the limits of their training in Robert G. Williscroft's third installment following Daedalus and Daedalus LEO.
