Sinossi
Si chiama energia di punto zero, ed è una nuova fonte di energia illimitata che potrebbe sostituire il petrolio e il carbone e risolvere ogni problema di approvvigionamento energetico mondiale... o crearne di peggiori. Perché l’energia di punto zero ha un effetto collaterale devastante: il rischio di scatenare spostamenti incontrollati delle placche tettoniche e conseguenti terremoti di portata apocalittica. Se poi si considera che le macchine per produrre questa rivoluzionaria e pericolosissima nuova forma di energia sono nelle mani di uno scienziato geniale, convinto di aver subito un grosso torto dall’establishment scientifico americano e decisissimo a vendicarsi, la situazione si fa – letteralmente – esplosiva. E come ogni volta in questi casi, solo gli eroici e spregiudicati uomini della NUMA possono intervenire... Così una tranquilla e un po’ noiosa serata all’Opera House di Sydney segna per Kurt Austin l’inizio di un’adrenalinica avventura, in cui la posta in gioco è altissima e i nemici difficili da individuare. Per fortuna lo affianca, oltre all’inseparabile Joe Zavala, un’affascinante, originale e preparatissima scienziata, che conosce molto bene il nemico da combattere. La corsa contro il tempo è iniziata, e la posta non potrebbe essere più alta.

Kurt Austin was currently on leave in Sydney, Australia where the conference he was attending in the halls of the Opera House was boring him to tears. His escape, on the pretext of taking an urgent call, led him to a young woman who also seemed to be escaping the boredom; plus a helicopter and a fle Leggi tutto
Typical Clive Cussler: something to read for an afternoon getaway from reality. True escapism. Nothing extraordinary; but then again, perhaps being basically free from offensive language might be considered extraordinary in today's world of fiction. I'm appreciative of that - I find myself whining a Leggi tutto
What an exciting adventure! This was definitely a pageturner!
Clive Cussler writes the best "over-the-top" thrillers. So unlikely but still fun to experience. This one took place mostly in Australia and I simply loved listening to the Australian accents. It made my enjoyment of the story just that much better. I missed a few in the series so there were a few p Leggi tutto
I love Clive. He did a great job researching Australia, but they that read it on Cd not so much. Nobody says "zero zero zero", it's "triple zero". Nobody says the letters A S I O, it's a word a-zee-oh. But I like the story and how he ties in real events. The fake Australian accents were really bad,
This is part of a long standing sci-fi series with engaging characters and some interesting plot twists. If you enjoy this one, you might want to start at the beginning of the series and see how the story line and characters develop.
Otra gran aventura de Kurt y Joe
A good fast paced adventure, a-la James Bond. Light, frothy, fast, testeterone driven, adrenalin boosting, save the world set up.
I finished this one yesterday and it was SO MUCH FUN! How refreshing to read an adventure story, often at sea no less! Definitely will be going to the beginning of this series and starting to read it from there. A total (and often literal) blast!
Eleventh in the NUMA Files action suspense series revolving around Kurt Austin and Hayley Anderson. My Take Almost the usual Cussler adventure. Yeah, almost, the earlier novels have a greater sense of action, tension, and drama. I don't know if it's a lack in the writing or if the writing is leaving m Leggi tutto
