" So, how many times can the word "GUSHED" be used in a Cussler novel?? "

Lisa | 2/12/2014
" a good read with gripping suspense! "

Aden Holmes | 2/6/2014
" A great book, very interesting. "

Steve Schlutow | 2/5/2014
" This book was okay.. It was a light and quick read, which was why I enjoyed it.. "

Jackie | 2/3/2014
" was an entertaining read, but I agree with some of the others out here in that it's pretty smarmy in its dialogue. It seemed canned and forced in many ways. The younger Pitt's romance rang unnatural as well. I don't feel they adequately fleshed out the relationship for the intermittent "intensity" between the two to be believable. But, it sufficed for my something entertaining to read, when I needed it. "

" Disapointing, even for Cussler. The story was typical for a Dirk Pitt novel. But the characters, which were never very rounded before, seemed stamped from a mold. Nothing happens that makes the reader feel invested in the characters. The dialogue was abysmal. I can't help feeling that Dirk Cussler writing with his father is a serious detriment to the family name. "

John Morey | 1/30/2014
" I thought this book was a great and fast read. The Pitt's continuously get out of trouble and that gets a little old but all in all I still love Cussler! "
-




Sue | 1/27/2014
" This book went on for way too long. "
-




Aaron Sharp | 1/26/2014
" A good book if you like Cussler. At some point it dragged a little long and after about the 12th time seeing the good guys escape capture/certain death it was a little on the unrealistic side. All the same it was a mystery combined with submarines combined with World War II, so I am a sucker for that formula. "

William Hill | 1/20/2014
" A smattering of history and alot of high adventure. A fast-paced novel and thoroughly enjoyable, especially the main character, Dirk Pitt, a combination McGiver, James Bond, and Tom Swift. "
-




Cameron | 1/18/2014
" I listened to this book on audio CD. "
-




Max Hall | 1/5/2014
" Clive did it again. This book kepyt me on the edge the entire time; right when you got a little settled in, a twist would come out of nowhere. He then manages to pull the entire book together at the end with a great ending. "

Hylon Heaton | 1/1/2014
" It's a pretty typical Dirk Pitt novel. Good fun, plenty of action... bit of romance, based in reality but stretched just enough to keep you questioning. "
-




Tony L | 12/31/2013
" well bit of a rollercoaster ride, love the start, bit farfetched but why not, action is what you want read on, brought for my son, saw it in book case gave it a go, enjoyed it, "
-




Marsha | 12/30/2013
" Old Biological weapons on a sunken submarine forms the basis for the plot in this book. "
-




Marty | 12/9/2013
" In contrast to my usual reading, there was nothing particularly mysterious about this. It's adventure all the way. Basically it's James Bond as a civilian. Some aspects were rather silly, including some technology that doesn't exist. Like Bond, it's fun as long as you just accept the story as it is. "

Janice | 10/4/2013
" Started out slow but glad I finished..I'll be reading mor of his books!! "
-




Donna Halloran | 9/22/2013
" Another great Clive. This one included his son and daughter which I have not read before - enjoyed it "
-




Greg | 6/5/2013
" As with every Dirk Pitt adventure it follows the same outline as the previous book but as with every one I enjoyed the ride completely. Just like a James Bond movie you know he is going to save the day but you can't wait to see how. "
-




Lew | 5/14/2013
" Not a good Cussler read "
-




Tom Tallmadge | 3/25/2013
" I like Dirk Pitt stories, some are better than others. "
-




Eileen | 12/5/2012
" I had no idea that the Japanese had launch the .......... at America and that they actually landed causing deaths on our own shores during WW2. Good story Cussler at his best! "
-




Keeley | 8/18/2012
" his book was too political for me. All of his books are well researched and very dramatic and climactic, and this was not an exception. But the story was not interesting to me at all. "
-




Dave | 2/20/2012
" Not bad. Typical Cussler/Dirk Pitt. Good villian. Sometimes I wish he would make the villians suffer more. They sometimes get off too easy for how evil he makes them. "
-




Bookworm Amir | 2/9/2012
" Deavastatingly charming how the Japanese operated and manned their submarines. Possibly a chimera might even exist. This book is definitely a must for Dirk Pitt fans, for it follows up AFTER Trojan Odyssey, and can somehow be recognized as a Dirk Pitt Book with a new storytelling typeface. "
-




Jillian | 9/25/2011
" Listened to the audiobook with my parents as we drove to and from Philadelphia and Chicago. Suspenseful and fun, the book led to some fun dinner-table discussions as we debated what would happen next and how the bad guys would finally get caught. "

ilnyb | 8/15/2011
" I thought it was amateurish to say the least. Definitely for readers who aren't too fussy. "
-




Olean Public Library | 6/7/2011
" Excellent, suspenseful. "
-




Danielle | 5/22/2011
" I learned from this book that North Koreans are sneaky bastards, rockets can be launched from the ocean, and if anyone develops a chimera of HIV-smallpox, we're all gonna die. "
-




Jeannie | 5/11/2011
" I loved the book - the focus on Dirk Pitt Jr. was a surprise, but loved the cameo of Clive! "
-




Steve | 4/15/2011
" This book was okay.. It was a light and quick read, which was why I enjoyed it..
"
-




Jeff | 1/8/2011
" Action packed from beginning to end.
"

thebutterflycastle | 12/22/2010
" It took me forever to read this one... it was a phase in life when I couldn't devote much time to secular reading so my recollection of this one is very sparce.. it was OK. I really like the dives and adventure and conspiracy.
"
-




Stephanie | 12/15/2010
" I usually love Cussler's books but I had a really hard time getting into this one. It seemed hampered by too much technical detail. There were still some good suspense scenes though.
"
-




Linda | 10/10/2010
" A pretty good thriller, but this book could really use a good editor to get rid of redundancy, incorrect phrasing and just plain dumb statements.
"
-




Lisa | 9/3/2010
" a good read with gripping suspense!
"
-




Vicky | 8/2/2010
" Typical Dirk Pitt with son and daughter. Heard on audio book while on a road trip.
"
-




Joel | 5/10/2010
" The two dirk pitts will be in this one, and I didn't realize it atfirst, so it made for some fun reading
"
-




Amy | 4/21/2010
" Clive Cussler books are nothing if not predictable, but it's enjoyably predictable not boring. Ridiculous, madcap plot full of inexplicable events and lucky coincidences, all topped off by the most Mary Sue action hero protagonist I've ever encountered. Cussler is the Alexandre Dumas of scuba.
