The book that launched the career of one of the world's most popular thriller writers of all time, HMS Ulysses tells the story of enlisted men who rose to great heroism in savage conditions.

Alongside The Caine Mutiny and The Cruel Sea, HMS Ulysses is one of the classic novels of the navy at war and a gripping survival tale. On a desperate voyage to Murmansk, the men of convoy FR77 are pushed to the limits of human endurance, crippled by relentless enemy attack and the bitter cold of the Arctic.

"A story of exceptional courage which grips the imagination." —Daily Telegraph

"A brilliant, overwhelming piece of descriptive writing." —The Observer

"It deserves an honorable place among twentieth-century war books." —Daily Mail
