This story begins in 900 BC, as a Thracian and Phoenician ship collide, with devastating consequences. Many years later, in 1809, Thomas Jefferson has assembled cherished word lists of the Unkechaug people, valuable vellum documents which he entrusts to an old friend - Meriwether Lewis. He has no id Leggi tutto
Can you give anything lower than a one-star rating? I have never read Cussler before but wanted a quick, light summer read. With its one-dimensional, stock characters and forced dialog The Navigator is quite possibly one of the worst books I have read.
Cussler's a Pre-Columbian trans-oceanic contact theory buff. Or at least, as an American writer, he uses the angle to facilitate the international setting of his novels when global disaster is not the ploy du jour.

This is standard fare for Clive Cussler...but that isn't a bad thing. With plenty of action and twists, this one will keep the pages turning.

I love Clive Cussler books, they're wild, adventurous, a little history mixed with fiction and just fun!

If you are looking for a fun adventure this is th Leggi tutto
Maybe books like this should come with a warning? Matt's review just about sums up how I felt after reading this !
Typical Cussler - impossible physical feats, really bad guys. Great read!!!
