Publisher Description

In his first adventure since the revelation that he’s a parent, Dirk Pitt must uncover the truth behind the myth of another long-lost father-figure, Homer’s Odysseus, if he’s going to stop a dangerous cult from reshaping the earth in their own image.   Fraternal twins, Summer Pitt and Dirk Pitt, Jr., are working to determine the origin of a strange brown tide infesting the ocean off the shore of Nicaragua when two startling things happen: Summer discovers an artifact, something strange and beautiful and ancient.  And the worst storm in years boils up out of the sky, heading straight for them and a nearby floating luxury resort hotel called Ocean Wanderer.    The peril for everybody concerned is incalculable. And now that Dirk Pitt has learned he’s a father, he will stop at nothing to protect his two children. He rushes into the chaos, only to find that what’s left in the storm’s wake makes the furies of nature pale in comparison. For there is an all-too-human evil at work in that part of the world, and Summer’s relic may be the only clue to the man calling the shots. Whoever he is, he’s connected to a cult that believes the Celts, also known as the Achaeans, reached the New World millennia before the accepted history suggests. If he’s right, his ancestors laid the foundation for the work he will soon complete—and our world will be a very different place. Though if Summer's discovery is to be believed, the world is already a very different place...

"This book really makes me wonder why we haven't seen more of these books become movies. This one is where the Mr Pitt and his sidekick start to find their lives away from the adventures and start to settle down....but there are more adventures to come if you keep reading the series.... "

    " Pretty typical Dirk Pitt action going on here. I find these books really entertaining, but I have to agree with my boyfriend (who's the reason I read this) that Cussler made a mistake having Dirk Pitt age throughout this series. If he had made Dirk more of a James Bond type character, going on endless missions while never aging it would have been way better. Now these books just feel like a bad soap opera, with Dirk Pitts long lost, never-even knew-had-them kids running around solving crimes with him. And it's pretty obvious Cussler must have realised he needed a young Dirk to fit the bill, since his son, also named Dirk, just happens to look and act exactly like his father...how convenient. "

    " This potboiler is the sort of bad writing that comes of too much, or too easy success that leads one to think he or she can just knock out a book over a weekend or two and a bottle of Scotch. Just in the first part, there is a hurricane barreling towards the Caribbean heading "due east." This is repeated several times. Hurricanes do not and cannot barrel due east. Especially from Africa. Hello? Then there is the scene in which intrepid hero Dirk Pitt arrives to rescue a battered floating hotel in the eye of the worst hurricane ever. This hurricane, with winds of supposedly 225 mph, has just torn apart a dozen ships and a Coast Guard hurrican hunter airplane. No matter. Pitt arrives by helicopter, no problem. Is that cool or what? "
