The Night Boat, Robert R. McCammon

[bookfrog]

A man is diving for salvage when he accidentally sets off an old depth charge. In addition to nearly killing the guy, the resulting explosion unearths a u-boat, which promptly bobs to the surface.

This is of course impossible, but considering the things in the u-boat, big fucking deal. Zombie Nazis are coming to town.

Ridiculous, but gory.

For the record, in case you didn't know: the whole Nazi Zombie thing was a big fad in the seventies (mostly in movies, but did bleed over into books like The Night Boat now and again). According to an interview I saw with the director of Shock Waves, my favorite of the Nazi Zombie movies, the whole fad stems from Pauwels' The Morning of the Magicians (http://www.amazon.com/Morning-Magicians-Mysteries-Universe-S/dp/0285635832/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1195651101&sr=8-1). I finally tracked a copy down (and now, of course, it's been re-released-- bah), so it's on my list for next year.
