Clive Cussler is utterly AMAZING!
Awful. Clive Cussler did not write a single word.
Classic Cussler
loved it
Mr. Cussler is one of my favorite authors. This was yet another of his great books.
This Dirk Pitt went so far overboard (pun intended) that it boggled the mind of one who knows about some of the things that happened in this book that I found it to be FAR beyond the reality of the book. I would pass it by.
Dirk Pitt at his best!
A really great series, a total entertaining, witty, action packed and wonderful characters that take you on a great exciting and dangerous adventure.
Love anything by Clive Cussler and this one does not disappoint!
A good read, but not as good as Clive’s earlier book. Love the characters. All the time in the water got a little boring.
Excellent, to the last page
I enjoyed it. Started a but slow but picked up later. Some characters are a bit hard to believe and some medical lnfo was unlikely {huge man with amazing strength grew a lovely bosom and was raised female by a male heir wanting father.
Mr. Cussler has not ever written a bad book!
