2.5 rounded up. This book was way longer then it needed to be, the editor could have cut out quite a bit. The pacing is super slow at first and the story really doesn't get going until halfway through then it picks up and just doesn't stop. There are WAY TO MANY CHARACTERS all with similar names and the pov or setting keeps switching every other paragraph so it's hard to keep track of who is who and where they are. All the different plots and settings are going on in real-time so when you jump from character to character and plot to plot and setting to setting it's a bit jarring until you get used to it. The submarine parts are very very technical and detailed which if you are into that kind of thing is cool but if not it's extra detail that drags down the action. The wall street plot was over the top and a tiny bit unbelievable although you could think of something similar actually happening.

You could skim over a third of this book and still get everything you needed out of it, just be warned your in for a bit of a slog for the first half.
