Frank Herbert Adult Coloring Books Editorial Review
"Under Pressure" by Frank Herbert, also known as "Dragon in the Sea", is a well-written and suspenseful science fiction novel. It follows Lt. John Ramsey, a psychologist who is sent aboard a subtug to investigate the mysterious disappearance of these submersible vessels stealing oil during a war between the United States and the Soviet Union. The story explores themes of sanity, the horrors of war, and the paranoia of the Cold War era. The character development in this novel is strong, and the plot remains relevant even today. The book is not heavy on speculative science, but it does have a strong Cold War vibe. The central mystery of the book is never fully answered, which may frustrate some readers. The book also feels a bit dated and pretentious, typical of novels from that era. Overall, "Under Pressure" is a worthwhile read, showcasing Herbert's storytelling skills and character development, while also providing a thought-provoking exploration of the psychological aspects of war.
