"Another Isaac Bell book - this one starts on an Ocean Liner with mysterious thief after a new patent that will make talking picture a reality. Isaac is back to find the thief and bring him to justice. I like that Cussler moves the story along and finally gets Isaac and Mariam married."

— John (4 out of 5 stars)

    " Another Isaac Bell mystery, this time involving the invention of talking motion pictures. I liked this one, but not as much as the others. Too much in this one was too far beyond belief. I'll listen to another on CD if one comes out. "

    " Interesting bits about the birth of the film industry make this not just a good plane read, but a good plane read with a bit more. (And may we all just thank Dominique Browning for making it okay to grab bad books with good action when heading on the road. I am one of those who has gotten on a long plane ride with virtuous reading material that I NEVER opened...) "

    " Another hit from Clive Cussler, starring Issac Bell as a turn of the century detective who helps save the inventor of "talkies" from the Germany Imperial Army. If you like the three previous Issac Bell books you will enjoy this one too. "

    " Isaac Bell returns with another action-packed adventure. Not quite as thrilling as The Race, but with another nasty villain to best, Isaac Bell comes through battered and bruised, but married to Marion. "

    " I like the Isaac Bell series from Cussler and this one holds up pretty well. I would have loved a longer portion of the book set on the Mauritania. All in all though this one worked. "

    " Loved it - fast moving, good characters - a little unbelievable, but come on, that's what Clive Cussler's all about. Would enjoy seeing this one as a movie. "

    " This newest of the Isaac Bell series holds the same interest as the others, but for me starts off a bit slow. I did enjoy the setting of the early part of the 20th century with its burgeoning transportation and communications systems. "

    " This is so far fetched it's waaay beyond belief. When they first "lighted" up their cigars I chuckled. I think Clive was smoking more than tobacco, more than once. Maybe it was all the coal dust. "

    " Like all Clive Cussler books, this is a fun read. I like the focus in each of the Isaac Bell books on an early twentieth century technology and how it developed. The premise was a little weak, but it was developed in such a fun way that it didn't matter. "
