The Wrecker Audiobook

" Cussler sure can spin a good yarn! After the first Isaac Bell, I had to read the rest. Edge of your seat stuff! "

" Overall, really good action detective story. Starts a little slow but once you get into it, you're hooked. Lots of interesting background on the railroad industry in the early 1900's. Didn't realize this was book #2 of a series, so I'll probably find the first one and read it also. "

" fast paced thriller... "

" like the Isaac Bell series, wish he had more of them. Suspends my disbelief a bit too far- Senator Kincaid had superhuman powers- but still a worthwhile listen for the commuting drive. "

" kind of heavy to read...although quite inspirative - beginning of 19th century in the US "

" I am not that impressed with his writing. Sooo much detail I get bored. I will try one more of his books....but think I will not pick any more up after that "

" Enjoyed the first Isaac Bell novel, I'm sure Clive Cussler will not disappoint. The Wrecker was great,fast paced right to the very end. "

" ok. I'm with the person who said the original Dirk Pitt series was best. The story was ok but the telling seemed laborous. Didn't connect with Bell. "

" I love Clive. This detective series set at the onset of the 20th century will take readers back to crime solving before high tech CSI. Isaac Bell uses good old intuition and know-how to get good man. "

" Awesome as usual! But shorter than the usual Cussler book. "

" It was nice to see a Cussler book that was not a NUMA adventure. This was a nice change of pace for his readers "

" Not sure that this is one of the better Cussler reads. It was a little bit all over the place. It was almost as if the writer was not sure as to where he should base the storyline! "

" I really like the character Issac Bell.. I also like the way that the author puts him into historical context... Good read all the way so far! Enjoyable! The worst thing for me about this book is the last page!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "

" I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The characters were fully developed and the interplay was believable, interesting and occasionally funny. Once more I morn the loss of a great author "

" This book really kept my interest. The book was filled with suspense and I found myself picking it up to keep reading what was going to happen in the next chapter. "

" I love most of this author's books, but not this one. "

" Not one of his best, but still entertaining "

" an interesting look at the building of the railroads and the tycoons who bribed and fought their way across the country. As usual, Mr. Cussler's heroes are too heroic and border on the amusing, while his villains are too much the villain. "

" This is an okay book, but nothing special. Dies give an interesting perspective into the early railroads. Book seems to run long and is predictable. "

" It was definitely different than his underwater adventures, which was refreshing, However I like his NUMA, Kurt Austin and Dirk Pitt adventures! Dont worry, I have 2 more of his books to read!! "

" What a disappointment. The Chase was a fantastic book, but this time, the cast was too large, the action too far-ranging, and the story disjointed and rushed. "

" Great book with lots of suspense, but left you hanging in the end, no real conclusion and vengeance for the villain! "

" This was my first Clive Cussler book. I see myself reading / listening to many more in the future. "

" It's better than the first one in this series, but not as good as some of his other series are. "

" I thought this was a frist class dective novel set in the west. The story revolved around the building of railroads, and I enjoyed it a lot. "

" A fun break from his Dirk Pitt novels, this book is set in the early 20th century and revolves around a major railway company. It's not a book that will "leave you thinking" by any means, but I liked reading about the power the railway system had over America, and the story was good. "

" One of the coolest books i've read. It's an action adventure book set during the time when railroads spanned across America. You follow Detective Isaac Bell as he tries to capture The Wrecker, a dangerous criminal targeting the railroad. "

" I liked this novel a lot more than I expected to! What a fun read - it was quick, the hero was irresistable, the women were strong and I learned a lot about the early days of the railroad to boot! "

" I loved the historical setting. It was amazing to watch the process of solving a case without the aid of computers, cell phones, etc. Isaac Bell and his relationships with Marianne and his friends broke up the action nicely and made you root even harder for him. "

" Another great Clive Cussler book! Fast, entertaining read! "

" One of Cussler's Best! I absolutely loved this thriller. "

" This was fun! I learned a lot about trains. The main character is absolutely ridiculous - a real man's man. I think that's what was part of the fun of the book. "

" Excellent book - great Railroad background, good character development, constant suspense and action. "

" I love Cussler and this does not disappoint. "

" An enjoyable continuation of Isaac Bell the Van Dorn detective in the early 1900 and the building of the railroad. A good read. "

" the main character is rather one dimensional, but the era in which the action is set makes up for it. "
