Havana Storm

I have to disagree with any reviewer that says this is another great book by Clive Cussler, who has become as formulaic as anyone writing today. The basic plot has rogue forces in the Cuban government hoping to wrest control of Cuba from Raul Castro (view spoiler) [, using an arms deal for uranium with the North Kor (hide spoiler)] Leggi tutto

E mi ritrovo a divorare una nuova avventura di Dirk Pitt, il mio primo protagonista di storie di avventura (come ho già detto nelle altre recensioni, ho tutta la saga completa). Stavolta il Nostro dovrà scongiurare una terribile minaccia all'ecosistema marino causata da certi tipi loschi che per me Leggi tutto

Pretty standard Dirk Pitt-ing (scuba! explosions! international espionage! big-ass boats! inability to let go of the Cold War!) with the addition of Pitt's two adult children, who sprang, fully grown from Pitt's Zeus-like head a few books ago. Summer, his daughter, is an oceanographer and Dirk Pitt

For years my father and brother have been telling me to try Clive Cussler novels. My response has always been "that's not my type of book." Well, recently I've decided to branch out from what I normally read and I decided to give this a shot. I'm glad I did. As a first time reader to the series, it w Leggi tutto

Another very entertaining and enjoyable read in the Dirk Pitt series! Clive Cussler and his son Dirk have done a great job in keeping this franchise up to date with current events that are linked with ancient history. If you have never read any Dirk Pitt novels, start with PACIFIC VORTEX which is #1 Leggi tutto

First time read from this author for me, from the plot description it looked to be a promising action adventure set in the Caribbean. It almost, almost made my top list, but there was some lacking in the actual action, the plot promised. The read tells of Dirk Pitt , while investigating a toxic outb Leggi tutto

Sono un’appassionata di Clive Cussler e della sua serie su Dirk Pitt da anni, da quando mia madre mi ha messo un volume in mano e io l’ho guardata scettica, per poi finire a leggere tutti quelli che aveva in poco tempo e comprarmi man mano quelli che mancavano. Gli ultimi volumi, quelli scritti con i Leggi tutto

Twenty-third in the Dirk Pitt action thriller series and revolving around Dirk and his children and their fascination with under the seas. This story is set in the Caribbean around Cuba and Jamaica and begins in 1898 before slipping into 2016. My Take At last. The truth behind the sinking of the U.S.S Leggi tutto

This is the last Clive Cussler book I’m going to read. Clive Cussler has been my favorite author for years. Yes, his plots are formulaic and fantastical. Also, his characters are over-the-top stereotypes. Yet, his formula always worked for me—until now. I have overlooked his trademark: historical, do Leggi tutto

At this point Clive (and Dirk) Cussler have probably gotten to the point where they can generate the vast majority of a new book from software implementing their patented algorithm for mixing the deep sea, historical conspiracy theories, power mad villains and miraculous wins by the good guys. this
