Latest Update on Hunter Killer, the movie that Relativity Media is making based on our book, FIRING POINT. This is an excerpt from an interview that IndieWire did with Antoine Fuqua on 28 Feb.

“VM: Are you still attached to direct ‘Hunter Killer’ with Gerard Butler?

AF: Yes, it’s one of my projects, absolutely. There are several films that directors are passionate about, that you really like and really want to make, but sometimes the stars don’t line up together to come as fast for a lot of different reasons, and others come together much faster. But it’s something I’m attached to, and still love the story.”

Comment received from Joe Buff, noted submarine author:

George: I just finished FIRING POINT after it kept me up til 3 am several nites in a row. You and Don did a terrific job, the 700 pages were seamless and fast paced from beginning to end. A very fresh imaginative plot re the cyber-financial attack on US economy along with the undersea warfare and SEALs elements! I liked how at the very end some scores were settled with sub-launched cruise missile precision land attacks.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY says,”The movie rights to this complex submarine thriller have already been sold–no surprise; the plot unfolds like a summer blockbuster.” FIRING POINT was reviewed in the July issue of Publishers Weekly. Read the entire review on my Media page.

See my article in the Spring 2012 edition of The SUBMARINE REVIEW.  I have put a copy of it on my Media page.

Effective 3 July, FIRING POINT is now available in your local bookstore.  If they haven’t stocked it on their shelves, ask them to order it.
