A very interesting alternate history, sci-fi tale, almost like the story-line of the series with the Union Civil War regiment sailing into a world where humans of numerous different cultures are prey to another species. Except this is just a different time period and with World War II sailors instead of Union soldiers.

Wasn't sure I would like "Into the Storm," but I did. I have the next one in this series, and then books 3 and 4 on the way to me. I may leave it at that until I finish book 4. I've looked at the plots of the rest on the Fantastic Fiction site and the series appears to get so complicated, so many different battle, deaths and weapons, I may find it distasteful. I dislike books where the thrust of the story seems to be how many people can be killed. We'll see.
