This is the second Dirk Pitt adventure I have read from Clive Cussler. The first, Raise The Titanic! , didn't impress me, but it intrigued me enough to pick up another offering from the author.

Took me a long time to get through this book. I've read most of the Dirk Pitt books by Clive Cussler, and enjoyed most of them. This one is a typical Pitt adventure, but it tends to kind of slog along in parts. Once the plot is fully realized it gets better, with Pitt and his NUMA colleagues stoppin Leggi tutto
