The Navigator Audiobook

" Definitely my least favorite Cussler novel. The character motivation was staged, conversations were linear, driving straight to make a plot point without any realism, and the adventure was equally staged. Blah. "

" A Dan Brown type of novel that links secrets from Phoenician times with Jeffersonian America and the modern USA - so well researched and written that it could be true. "

" Well what can I say, this is definitely entertaining and a page turner but a bit of a yarn. It's not Tolstoy but it is educating and entertaining, as all Clive Cussler novels are. This particular book is part of the NUMA Kurt Austin series and so should be regarded as such. It's a stand alone novel and you don't have to read any of the others. If you like plot twists aplenty, campy intrigue, action and over the top fun, this is your book. Try the used book store before you drop $10.00. "

" I love Clive Cussler - his books follow exactly the same plot every time yet I can't stop reading them. His formula is the same and amusing yet page turning every time. "

" like #thisis40 long but exceedinly enjoyable "

" I was spellbound through the entire book. "

" Not a bad book... having read as much Clive Cussler as I have, it's very formulaic but still is a lot of fun ;) "

" Cole gave me this for my birthday. He saw a ship and thought I'd like it because of ClipperShip Travel. I didn't think it was my cup of tea - but it's not too bad so far. "

" Fun adventure read as most of this prolific writers's work are. Friends who have read more tell me this is among his best. "

" An ancient Phoenician statue, a mysterious packet of documents personally encoded by Thomas Jefferson, ancient mariners, modern day heros, are part of this book. Action/adventure, once again the search is on for the artifact. Will the good guys win? Middle East setting, mostly. Kept me entertained. "

" Nice tie in of action, adventure, romance and historical fiction. "

" Clive Cussler is an old old favorite of mine. My mother and I used to read his books when I was barely a teen. His books are great when I am unimpressed with anything new and need a book to read. "

" Fun and entertaining story! However, I have never read a book with as many typos! I was amazed at the poor editing! "

" My favorite of Cussler's Novel's so far. It weaves together history, adventure, weird ancient cultures, and intriguing action. "

" First 450 pgs were great , very exciting..... last 50 or so got a little too over-the-top. Entertaining read, though .... Cussler has an easy casual way of writing that I enjoyed. "

" Learned a little history about Thomas Jefferson and about the sons of Solomon and Sheba. The book kept my interest with the adventure. "

" It was ok as entertainment goes. Nice read, a bit short, not the best from Cussler, but solid work. "

" I have read most of Cussler's books. For me there were two difficulties with this one. First, it seemed to take more chapters that usual introducing one character after another before weaving them together. Second, he it seems like he took two bookable concepts and rushed them into one book. "

" The usual, which means I liked it! "

" nearly throuthfull story...:-)..and no fiction...except Austins` performance "

" The old works were by far better started out interesting but lost steam. "

" Basically a comic book, somewhat entertaining, but not gripping. "

" Good read by one of my favorite authors "

" Not one of his better reads. "

" More about the Phoenicians. Typical Kurt Austin landing himself a female interest in Mechardi; the villain died way too easily after so much hyped building its characters. "

" Started out pretty slow, but it was good by the end. "

" An interesting story taken from the Solomon theories, and to mix it in with Jeffersonian rumors and conspiracies was really intriguing. "

" Great read! This was my first Clive Cussler book. Loved the history in the book. "

" It reminds me of the Novel Tom Selleck's character is writing in the movie "Her Alibi". The Plot and story are good. The telling of it just gets over the top sometimes. "

" I was spellbound through the entire book. "

" Great character development in this mix of history and fiction. It is a page turner and kept me on the edge of my seat. I have two more of Cussler's novels in my to read list and will start another one today. "

" My first Clive Cussler book and the start of many more! "

" I like the NUMA series, as well as its cousin, the Dirk Pitt series. Both of them, however, are more Bro-mance than real mystery. And, they certainly have an environmentalist agenda. Each novel speaks to a specific environmental issue. But, they are fun reading, and the characters are well-written. "

" Started out pretty slow, but it was good by the end. "

" Yet another classic from Mr. Cussler. "

" First Cussler book for me. Listened to most of the book, so maybe that is why I couldn't get passed the cheese factor for the first few discs. Ended up being a pretty good book. Not my usual, but I might just read another one. "
