The Hunt for Red October is one of my favourite films, so I was very much looking forward to reading the original book on which it was based. Although at times the narrative can feel slow (and perhaps going into too much naval detail) it finished with an exciting climax which prevented me from putting the book down. It is a unique plot and one that will keep you gripped.
