WTF happened to Cussler? Did he go senile & lose his touch or has he always been this crappy a writer? I LIKED "Sarhara", but "Atlantis Found" just SUCKS. After plodding through this book on audio for days, I started to listen today & his hero uses a string to tie 3 rifles together. Then he ties the Leggi tutto

OMG! Holiday reading. Pure nonsense but this really is five star nonsense - an adventure with world-destroying comets, Nazis in Antarctica, ancient civilisations with messages to be deciphered, battles on the ice - what is not to love about it. But, seriously, Cussler is not only a page-turner (somet Leggi tutto

This is my first book by Clive Cussler and, my oh my, I don’t think I have ever read something like this. I meant I read some thrillers with unrealistic plots but this story… well, this one is a genre of its own! I’ve started this book as a beach read and then continued on the plane.

Yes the book has taken me 20days to read but I have been Leggi tutto

Atlantis Found is the fifteenth book of Clive Cussler’s Dirk Pitt series that finds Dirk and his friends and associates at NUMA stumbling upon a 60-year old plan inspired by hatred and an a Leggi tutto

Outstanding book! I was kept on the edge of my seat until the last page was turned - and I mean the very last. Marvelously written, great character development, and set in largely a forbidden climate. Most intriguing.
