Stephen Makk’s standalone novels show a writer with interests beyond modern submarine warfare. The eight books span from 2014 to 2020 and include historical naval fiction like HMS Oliver Cromwell and HMS Vanquish, which move the maritime action to earlier periods of naval history.
Other standalones like The Kali Option, The Rebel, and Grace, Collector of Evil venture into different genre territory entirely. The variety suggests Makk uses his standalones to experiment with settings and ideas that do not fit within his established series, while maintaining his core interest in action-driven storytelling.
