I enjoyed it!

This was the first Cussler book I've read. (Just finished it last night.) Though not a work of classic literature, I throughly enjoyed the ride! Thinking that the story was going to be about treasure hunting off the coast of Greece, I was very pleasantly surprised to find an action\thriller that focused on a former Nazi and heroin smuggling. Can't wait to get to Iceberg.

Excellent Book!

Nobody writes em like Clive Cussler...sort of like James Bond meets Jacque Cousteau. Excellent book for history and science lovers...and there is always a twist...can you spot Clive Cussler's character in the book? I love that part...he always inserts himself into his work. I know of no other author who does that. Hope you enjoy the read! This is my 2nd time around :o)

Charlie Chan with a wet suit
Rating  (3)
Date: 2008-04-28
This is a remake of the 1930's Charlie Chan mysteries, right down to the last chapter where Dirk Pitt explains how he solved the mystery. Everything is there except the drawing room.
This is a true action novel, complete with misdirection, the indestructible Dirk Pitt, bad guys who turn out to be good guys (and vice versa), and dime novel dialogue. However, if you have time to waste, it's a good time-waster!

This is the first of the Dirk Pitt series and since I started with more recent books it's almost like reading a different character. Dirk is a little bit more arrogant and actually kind of a jerk at times. Kind of cool to see the transformation of writing over the years and the way the author has "matured" Dirk from novel to novel. A must for Dirk Pitt fans.

Another great book from Cussler with enough plot twists to hold your interest for the complete book.
