David Poyer's naval career has included service in the Atlantic, Mediterranean, Arctic, Caribbean, and Pacific. His twenty novels have won praise from millions of readers around the world, and his sea fiction has been required reading in the Literature of the Sea course at the U.S. Naval Academy. China Sea is the sixth in his novel-cycle of the modern navy, following The Med, The Gulf, The Circle, The Passage, and Tomahawk (all available from St. Martin's Paperbacks). He lives with his wife and daughter in Virginia.
