I'd love to see a mini series, but I think it would be so incredibly dense and there's a lot of scene jumping.


I'd love to see a mini series from the perspective of the USS Chicago with the appropriate fog of war.


Still loved the chapter in the book where Toland stalks the Kirov battle group. That was one of the great tense pieces of writing that Clancy was really good at.
